What was/is your favorite weapon in a movie, game, tv show, comic book, etc.
Like the BFG from "Doom" or the Blame Thrower from "Mystery Men" you get the idea!

Either the weapons the predator had in the first movie or the pulse gun from Eraser. Those were pretty cool.

what was the weapon from Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy, where it makes you feel how the person that's shooting you feels??? The movie, not the game or book...Even though it might be in those to as well.

I was reading this thread and that was the first one that came to my head. I would love that gun. And I think it's only in the movie.

I guess I'll have to go a little boring (perhaps) and say the super gravity gun from Halflife 2: Episode 1
A close second currently on my mind would be Mal's pistol. Just so I can say, "I have Malcolm Reynolds' mother f-ing gun!" (does anyone else get a little sad after each time they finish watching the last episode of Firefly, just did. http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/1551/sad0025zn6.gif )

Guns, guns, guns.
You guys need to choose a melee weapon every once in a while (Bonus points to mltvcocktail for mentioning Indy's whip, I wanted nothing more in life since I was 10).
And a forum full of geeks and no one says a freaking lightsaber! Granted it would be a little cliche since everyone wants one, it would basically degrade the thread into what color we would all want.
I'm a sword guy myself, there are a few cool ones, Excalibur, Masamune, Sting, Glamdring, Narsil (or Anduril), The Sword of the Daywalker (you've got to love when the vampire picks it up and it totally messes up his hand), Takezo Kensei's sword (Even though its new, it needs a name to be cool).
And no need to limit myself to something handheld, that giant laser on the Death Star would be nice, although I wouldn't say no to the Technodrome either.
Its hard to pick a favorite, although I do love in Earthbound when you use a toothbrush to brush your teeth, and the resulting blinding flash can stun or even paralyze your enemy.

Pale Justice ZZ57PJ
This sword was made with one purpose: to destroy evil. Though a powerful weapon, Pale Justice has humble beginnings. The plain sword was crafted by a devout worshipper of Tyr named Renold. Renold spent thirty years of his life perfecting the metalworking techniques that allowed him to craft an almost flawless blade. As soon as Renold had completed the unadorned weapon, he turned it over to the church of Tyr. The priest who received it placed the naked blade on his monastery’s altar. He asked his brothers to join him in praying to Tyr to ask their god to bless the weapon with holy power. The brothers never touched the blade, nor did they speak of it. After ten years, despite the fact that all of the other brothers lost faith in the blade ever becoming enchanted, the original priest, Edan, continued his prayers in silence. Another twenty years passed, and there was still no sign from Tyr. Visiting priests of Helm scoffed at Edan’s blind devotion to the blade. It was then that, without warning, Edan walked up to the altar and gently removed the dust-covered blade from the altar.
The priest of Helm asked Edan if he had finally come to his senses. Edan replied that he had, that he had been expecting the wrong thing from Tyr the entire time. He stated that Tyr had done his work long ago.
The priest of Helm laughed out loud at Edan’s claim and asked his bodyguard to draw his sword. The magnificent weapon in the hand of the Helmite had a gilded guard set with pearls. Runes were etched along the blade, with a small cluster of fine rubies set in the ricasso. The priest of Helm laughed again and spoke. “This is truly a sword blessed by the gods. Your weapon looks like an ordinary soldier’s blade. It pales in comparison.”
Edan calmly grabbed the blade by the tang and swatted at the guard’s weapon. The priest of Helm’s laughter cut off quickly as he stared down at his retainer’s broken weapon. He stood there speechless as Edan set the blade down and began to reply.
“Justice always pales in comparison to vanity and ostentatious displays of power. I expected Tyr to manifest his divine will in this blade with lightning and fire. I should have remembered how the blade was given to me… with simple charity and humility. Justice is the right of every man, no matter how rich or poor, no matter how educated or ignorant. It should be found as often in the fields of farmers as it is in the fields of battle.”
Edan took the blade to a local weapon smith and had him put a wooden, leather wrapped grip on it. He then gave it to a fledgling paladin and asked him to always remember the potential for charity and kindness in the human race.

I think I'll be plain and simple; Roland's guns from The Dark Tower series. I know they aren't sharks with laser beams on their heads, they don't do anything cool but still.
Actually there's one weapon I would like to have more than those guns.

Yeah, the ZF-1 from the Fifth Element is an awesome weapon. I mean, what's not to like?
http://youtube.com/watch?v=9pxjnl1yuXk
That's gotta be my top favorite. Where's THAT in FPS games?!
For melee weapons, it's a tough call... I'd say the coolest would be the chainsaw arm of Ash.

For the life of me I don't know why I jump directly to guns and not other weapons like a blade of some sort...So with that in mind, I would like to have the Mana Sword from Secret of Mana...Because it is the ultimate sword...It becomes Excalibur at one point, so it is more powerful than Excalibur, and it requires your friends to help you out, so it's a Social Sword in a way:)
