Gadgets We Wish Were Real!

Neuralizer from Men in Black
Think about it: all those awkward and embarrassing moments your mom won't let you live down - never mentioned again. That accidental comment you made to your girlfriend - didn't even happen. The possibilities are endless.

Remote Control from Click
Sure makes that universal remote you got at Best Buy seem not-so-universal, now, doesn't it?

Hoverboard from Back to the Future II
The DeLorean is just a given. But seriously, who wouldn't want a hoverboard?! Especially one with 80s-tastic decals.

Point of View Gun from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
It'd be like having the power to read people's minds, except you could turn it off and on. Plus you'd look pretty badass holding this bad boy.

JARVIS from Iron Man
The Iron Man suit is cool and all that, but the real brains behind the operation is JARVIS. Besides, it's not like we want to save the world in a super-suit. We just want a version of Siri who can do anything.

The Plugin from The Matrix
Remember how while Neo or Trinity or anybody was in the Matrix, Tank could basically upload any kind of knowledge into their plugged-in minds? Yeah, we want that.

Transporter from Star Trek
It's a freaking teleportation device! Need we say more? Beam us up, Scotty!

Universal Translator also from Star Trek
And we mean universal. Learning a language takes a long time, and sometimes you don't have a long time. Sometimes you need to be able to ask, "Who the hell are you people and why am I in this tub of ice?!" right freaking now.

Sonic Screwdriver from Doctor Who
Aside from the fact that it doesn't do wood, this little baby is pretty limitless in it's abilities. Batteries and Matt Smith not included.

Talking Dog Collar from Up
If you're a pet owner, you know how frustrating it can be when your furry friend won't shut up and you have no idea what the problem is. Consider that done.

Inspector Gadget's...well, gadgets.
If you're a child of the '80s or '90s, you probably already have the theme song stuck in your head just from reading thew words "Inspector Gadget." (Sorry 'bout that.) While it seems like most of Gadget's gadgets really only serve the purpose of being extra hands to point at things, we can think of a few random things that might come in handy, no pun intended. Go go gadget bottle opener!

Hypertime from Clockstoppers
Aside from the fact that Clockstoppers was a pretty lame movie and the technology behind Hypertime doesn't even make sense (it speeds up the wearer's molecules so time seems to stand still around them, which we suppose is a better alternative to turning into gas), the idea would still be really cool if anyone could get it to work.

Invisibility Cloak from Harry Potter
Ideally, we would just all be wizards and be able to do all sorts of amazing things, but in lieu of innate magical abilities, we'll settle for an article of clothing that lets us do whatever we want without being seen.

Food Replicator from Star Trek and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
We like food. We like it fast. Ideally, we like it to be what we want it to be (unlike the Nutrimatic Drinks Dispenser in Hitchhiker's Guide which produces a substance "almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea").

The TARDIS from Doctor Who
It can go anywhere and anywhen, it's an acronym (which is appealing for some reason), and it's bigger on the inside. It maintains an oxygen bubble around itself, you know, in case you want to pop out for a stroll through the asteroid belt, and automatically translates foreign languages. In your head. Plus, if you're lucky, it comes with the Doctor.
