There are A LOT of these so I’m just going to go over a handful of the 100 greatest movie gadgets. They’re the items, weapons, and gear that spies, heroes, and just average Joes use to get around their movies and try to either survive or just get by. They’re also some of the coolest things you’ve ever seen and some of the most recognizable items ever created.
Hoverboard
Science has given us a hoverboard at this point but the creators are still working on something that doesn’t need to be on the ground to operate.
Lightsaber
Hands down this is one of the coolest weapons ever created. People have been trying to make one of these for years, but the problem is they should probably leave it to the Jedi.
Ski Pole Gun
Being pursued by a bad guy down the slopes? No problem, just whip around and fire off a round to get them off your tail. Just make sure the way in front is still clear.
Lotus Esprit Submarine
Imagine if a bridge is up on your way home or the traffic is just that. Find the nearest boat launch and take a dive.
Wrist Dart Gun
Just remember which button is which. You don’t want to be sticking someone in the neck or the arm when you’re just trying to adjust your watch.
Tricorder
It can tell you about the atmosphere, find signs of life, and possibly a lot more.
Proton Packs
I mean why worry? It’s only an unlicensed nuclear accelerator strapped to your back. What could happen?
Ghost Trap
Don’t look at the trap! I looked at the trap Ray!
Slick Shoes
Yeah, you might want to think about slick shoes when you’re more than halfway across the already slippery log. Data had great ideas but a lot of poor executions.
Breakfast Machine
This would be great if it did more than just make eggs, bacon, toast, pancakes….what in the world am I complaining about? Serve it up!
Delorean Time Machine
As dangerous as it could be this car is one of cinema’s greatest treasures. And now it’s a scrap heap in the movies.
Power Loader
This pretty much evens the playing field if you have to go toe to toe with an Alien queen.
Active Camouflage
There is really no way to contend with the Predator when they’re no longer messing around. Chances are you won’t know they’re there until you feel their blades in your back.
Shrinking Machine
Scientifically this machine still wouldn’t make sense. Wouldn’t the objects be just as dense once they shrank, or even more dense?
Auto-adjusting Clothes
This would actually be a cool idea. The only danger I can see is that if they malfunctioned and adjusted to a size several times too small and cut off the flow of air or a person’s blood flow.
Power Glove
One of the only real and widely used items on this list, the Power Glove was THE thing to have when the NES was still the king of the gaming systems.
Woman Disguise
It was an odd disguise to be true, but at least it had another function that the remake didn’t think about.
Talkboy
Only in a Home Alone movie could this ploy work. You would think that a hotel employee might understand the difference between a regular tone of voice and a modulated one.
Lawgiver
Imagine an actual cop with a gun like this. Given the fact that they have non-lethal rounds it might be an improvement.
Pen Grenade
These-are-not-for-people-that-fidget-a-lot. Period.
Explosive Chewing Gum
It’s not juicy fruit, just remember that.
Neuralyzer
This would be so useful on some people wound’t it? I’d say we could use it on a certain someone and make him forget about running for a certain office but I’ll be nice.
