This morning in the radio, I´ve listened to the end of a programme where people had been asked which film scenery they would choose to take a souvenir, someone has said the desk of Don Vito Corleone. Other, a chalk to draw things (don´t know which film is that)etc.
I´ve thought that it would be interesting to know what poeple here think.
I haven´t thought about it yet. But it would be a dress, a wig or something similar, to start with.

Yes, I think it would be a dress for me too. One of those fancy ones people don't wear these days.

Are we talking props, or the actual objects themselves, as portrayed? Because one of the bikes from Akira would be awesome!

Plenty to look at here http://www.propstore.com
I'd really go for the Golden Gun, unfortunately there's only a replica
available. Or you could go for the head of Hammerstein from Judge Dredd.

I'd rather like to have all of Rohan to live in...

I'd probably go for something from LOTR too. Maybe Anduril.

I really want a Baker Rifle. One of the replicas from the Sharpe TV films would probably be cheaper than a legit antique...

How long before someone suggests the underwear of [famous actress/actor]?

I'm going to RAF Bentwaters to be an extra for Zombie Diaries II: World Of The Dead. If I'm lucky I might get to take home a bit of intestine. Or just get the bus home fully made up.

I was going to ask for Enterprise D or a Death Star until I realised neither can land so they'd have to stay in orbit where I'd have no means to get to them
Getting my hands on an improbability drive is a bit unlikely.
I'd quite like the talking donkey from Shrek. That would confuse my cats.
The car in I Robot was pretty fancy, but it's an Audi and they're as common as chips nowadays. (I don't want one of the robots, with my luck I'd get an evil one).
Oh hold on, can I have Wall-E? That'd put an end to housework for the entire neighbourhood

Lightsaber.
Lightsaber.
Lightsaber.
Lightsaber.
Or if I'm not allowed one of those... double-ended lightsaber.
Or if I'm only allowed something that actually exists and works in the real world, there can be no contest whatsoever: http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/12/2007/09/batmobile_Tumbler.jpg

Serenity - unlike swl's spaceships, this one can land. Bonus points if it comes with Wash's dinosaurs.
Alternatively, Dom's totem from Inception.

If it works, the time-turner from Harry Potter. Just think, you could sleep as long as you need to and still be at work on time!
If we're talking props rather than items... Well, do the horses count as props?

The only piece of scenery from a Harry Potter film is the uncensored version of this:
