Maybe Phones which alow you to see the person you are talking to or walking sidewalks would be good too.

^^ Videophones do exist actually. I know there's some in Japan. The closest thing to moving sidewalks is the conveyor belt things in airports, but I think there will be some soon.

I wish that there were a kind of paper that whatever you drew on it would either happen or come to life. that would be cool.

I definitely wish the force was real, along with lightsabers. Damn, it'd be so much fun to just scare the crap out of people who messed with ya. Just whip out the good ol' lightsaber and voila! They'd run away screaming

Also, this is gonna sound pretty messed up, but I've always wished that "The Program" from the Battle Royale novel existed. Especially if I got to fight against the people I hated. It'd be the perfect balance of exhilaration and unimaginable terror

I would hate for the BR Act to be put into action. I would hate to think about all those people dying for no particular reason, and the fact that I may have to kill someone I love in order to stay alive.

I really wish fairys were real. Princesses and stuff like that. ^_^ *Is such a girly girl

Hey, fairies are cool.

Something I wish I had was a plant that would eat people you don't like... I wonder where I have seen that before? *looks a previous sig*

Or an instant Karma button. someone pulls out and is a total A-hole to yuo and you push that button and they get hit by a brick...

I guess if ya put it that way, it would suck. Although, if I were in it with someone I loved, I'd probably just "take care" of the rest of the competition, and take my own life in the end, so that the particular person could survive.

Battle Royale was a Japanese film/novel that focused on a class of schoolkids, abducted to be part of a program. They were sent to battle eachother to the death, war-style, and the victor would be rewarded with their freedom (correct me if I'm wrong, Rexy). In Battle Royale 2, another class is abducted, but this time they were sent in to battle the old class, who formed themself into a group of freedom fighters (or terrorists, as the politicians called them), eventually joining them, and then they called to all children to wage war against the adults. In the end only a few survived.
Again, correct me if I'm wrong, Rexy. Only seen BR2 :P.

Judging by the wrong choice I made when doing a quiz on the NASA
website, they have already started learning how to teleport atoms
from one spot to another, meaning humans teleporting for real one
day may not be that far into the future.

Well, the students were also equipped with random weapons that ranged from forks to sub-machine guns. Escape from the island was also impossible, due to collars the students were forced to wear that would explode if they wandered into a "Forbidden Zone". That's pretty much it . I really prefer the novel over the movies, since the novel covers what happened in much more deatil than the movie. It's the best novel I've ever read

I'm probably wrong but, for some reason I first thought of those snapper plant things from Crash Bandicoot. Then what's it called from Pokemon, Victorbell or something.

This Battle Royale thing sounds cool. Has it EVER been shown on English TV?(regular or Sky)

Unfortunately, no. It is out on DVD though, and you can find it pretty easily. I'd suggest reading the novel before watching the movie though, since there's so many things that are left out in the movie that made the plot all the more interesting.

'Cept this one can sing... or just talk in a melodious tune. My sense of hearing went when I got the plant... I mean, ummm... err... when my dog... ate my....homework?

Something that would be cool to have would be the Blitz Packer form Oddworld. I mean really, impaling someone with a pop can? that would be awesome!

Yeah, that would be cool. Though, it'd also be a problem, since then everyone would be shooting each other with cans of Cola

Unless you were smart and saved them all for yourself. then only you would be impaling people with pop cans.

How would you do that though, if all soda cans had that kind of ability? You'd have to be filthy rich in order to buy out all of 'em.
