NEW MOVIE DRAFT!!! Movie Memorabilia - Page 13 - The Lounge Discussion and Review on Literature, Arts, Culture

Yeah , I was torn between the Hattori sword and Excalibur but ended up going with ancient mystical.

Also thought about the Buick from rain man and the batmobile but went with the mad max car.

Surprised nobody took the balls from Caine mutiny.

Lots of great picks I never thought of. I really wanted the one ring.

This was a lot of fun. Interesting that, for the most part, people were able to get most of the things they wanted.

The rifle in Day of the Jackal gets made during the movie.

Check out the photo on the coffee table:

Also, Clarence's car from True Romance, the Batmobile, Urban Assault Vehicle from Stripes, Vincent Vega's car, and the DeLorean.

BTW, my BB prop was Saul's diploma. Not a great pick, just something from my favorite character. I guess a diploma from a presumably low-rent law school like the University of American Samoa does set the stage for being the type of lawyer he is.

Then a ton of other random crap. I started out with a piece of notepad paper, figuring that would give me plenty of room, but the list kept growing.

Here's the guitar I would have picked.
From The Song Remains the Same.
Jimmy Page's double neck Gibson.

I’ll round out my after market picks with: The Rocket ship from 8 1/2. It would look great on my front lawn. And Fellini would have appreciated that!

Zeno's comment reminded me of something. CNN was playing a series where Stanley Tucci was going around Italy, learning about the different regions' food & culture. Kind of like Bourdain used to do.

Anyway, when they got to Fellini's hometown, they showed several buildings had paintings on them of him or scenes from his films.

Might be a cool stop for you movie nuts if you're ever in Italy.

can't decide between the mask, the ceramic 'art', the codpiece, or the eye-opening headpiece.

I was thinking the bowler and the eye lashes, but it may have been a controversial pick. Also, those sticks are cool.

Probably been taken by now, but the helmet from apocalypse now after the guy removes it from his head and places it underneath himself after his colleagues explain how aircraft based warfare works.

The car that made a mockery of San Francisco's geography in Bullett :

For quick hops over traffic, the gyrocopter from Mad Max :

For personal protection, a little friend from Scarface :

For a bit more subtle approach to weaponry, switchblade from 12 Angry Men

A conversation piece for the living room from Forbidden Planet :

And for the game room, the suit of armor from Hara Kiri :

Wardrobe next. A duster from Once Upon a Time in the West :

And a hat to accessorize the look, from Apocalypse Now :

Lastly, I like pocket watches. From A Few Dollars More :

I really wanted something from A Few Good Men because I love that movie but couldn't think of anything but Tom's softball bat which seems sort of not iconic.
