What fictional weapon would you want?
 

Okay okay okay....

There are SO many different categories of fictional weapons. These categories all range from "fantasy" to "Sci-fi" Preferably, you'd all choose a weapon that's hand held. Where's the fun in blowing the shit out of your enemie's planet? (okay, that's actually pretty amusing).

I'll just pick one from each :cool:

Fantasy:
I think that an elven-made broadsword would be so excellent that words cannot describe...

Sci-fi:
Hmm... this is tough... I'm going to have to say either a good old Lightsaber or something perhaps lesser known... like... an E-web repeating blaster rifle :D

Rail gun or jacketed hyper velocity CSW. Basically a jacketed medium caliber weapon (20-35mm, would be used for BMPs etc.) with small jets throughout the barrel to spew fuel as the projectile passes the jets. They ignite, bringing the projectile to hypervelocity.

I'd love one of those rifles from the end of Starship Troopers.

Yeah, that and the "Blue Whacker" from Last of the Mohicans and I'd be set.

Plasma rifle, in the 40 watt range or the M41a Pulse Rifle:

The BFG from Doom, yeah baby......

How about the "gun" from The Fifth Element? That about wraps it all up...

Realistically? I'd take any of the big fantasy movie swords to put up on the wall as a showpiece...

Fantasy weapon: Does Ash's Boomstick count? If not, what about the chainsaw? :)

Sci-Fi: Original Doom rocket launcher w/backpack. 100 rounds, never needs to reload or cool down, and can be carried by a single man running at full sprint. Gotta respect that.

fantasy: the "kingmaker" sword of Arthurian legend (it's good to be king)

sci-fi: an implanted nanotech factory (As long as the little robots did what you told them, you'd get to kill without a trace, live through almost anything, and communicate and gather information with perfect precision, not to mention being able to think faster and move more quickly than your opponents.)

Blue lightsaber....easy.

yep....lightsaber would be my pick.....

Lightsaber, no doubt. If I had Bill Gates money, I would devote every cent to developing a real lightsaber. :D

the 2 gold 1911's from faceoff, even though they arent really "fictional"

Wait, I changed my mind. I don't want a E-web I want REASON :-) If you've never read Snowcrash you should. It's from that book

BAD ASS.

Yeah, you cant argue with REASON =)

REASON is overkill and beyond..

What is REASON?

the persuader

I want the superslege from fallout.

LOL I'm so glad that you people know what REASON is.....

I love that book so much. It's my favority Sci-fi book.

And it's true, no one can argue with REASON

lightsaber

If I recall correctly, Reason is a box attached to a small, gun-like nozzle that shoots shards of spent uranium at an insane speed, pretty much shredding anything you point it at. The beauty of it is getting to say "Don't worry, they'll listen to Reason."

Oh yeah, my dream weapon would be the Kill-O-Zap gun from The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy series. It's good to have a weapon with sufficient prongs and pointy things to let it be known which side is the bad one to be on and how bad it is to be there.

Yeah, reason was a portable chain gun.

It was powered by radioactive isotopes of some obscure element, thus it needed to be kept cool all the time. It also shot depleted uranium bullets at, which is right, and exceedingly fast speed. It was actually a gatling railgun system.

i'm not terribly sure about reason... it seemed a little buggy from the get-go. i'd want something a little more reliable... read stephenson's The Diamond Age and tell me that a skullgun wouldn't be the shit.


beyond those things, i'm feeling something along the lines of the ZF1 from the fifth element:

5th element for sure. Or a Noisy Cricket from MIB

A lightsaber is the obvious choice; who needs a cutting torch when your massless blade of pure energy goes right through everything?

But when it comes to being an absolute badass, I'd have to say the BFG9000. Not the 10000, the original Big Fucking Gun.

Let's face it. Nothing else can compare.

Can you beat a lightsaber?

One of the doom games had a double chainsaw. Id take that for sure, cause a regular chain saw is just insufficient.

Either know magic, not a weapon in and of itself, but could be I guess.

Or MD Device

Fantasy...hmm...the One Ring...mwhahahahaa

Sci Fi: An obscure gun from an obscure novel series called the 'timeline wars'. It was reloaded by cramming random crap into it's intake until it had the proper mix of elements to make it's ammuntion, which were little BB's with a tiny rocket in them that would seek the target, and navigate to it, and bounce around inside the target until they were out of fuel...basically turning an entire person/animal into a big bag of spagetti sauce. Mmmm....

Fantasy: A functional verson of Narsil.

Sci-Fi: Lightsaber.

i dont know how many SNL fans there are out there

but i'd have to go with the "garden laser"

Agreed. That thing was amazing, took care of leaves like no other

I'd take the Uruk-Hai sword from LotR. Big Ass Spike

Hmmm.. I'm torn between a starwars lightsabre or Spawns armour... Hmmm... I don't know witch one to pick so I say both.

I thought about REASON, but because of the overheating issue, I'm going to have to turn to the rail gun from Eraser.

ROFLMAO :lol:

I'm taking a protoss zealot's Psi blades and armour and Gandalf's sword.

Definately the lightsaber- what else is there

Fantasy: How about the Ark?

Sci Fi: (not strictly scifi but...) Giant Robo! Yosh! ;)

Fantasy: some kinde of a magicalsword

Sci Fi: A Doomsdaycannon :P
