Here is the entire list, as ranked by a survey of 2,000 movie fans commissioned by 20th Century Fox. Not surprisingly, Fox is the distributor of George Lucas' saga which also had an appearance on the list at number nine.

1. Light saber, Star Wars films
2. .44 Magnum used by Dirty Harry (the one that can "blow your head clean off")
3. Indiana Jones' bullwhip from Raiders of the Lost Ark
4. The Bride's samurai sword in Kill Bill
5. Leatherface's Chainsaw in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
6. Golden gun, the James Bond weapon in The Man with the Golden Gun
7. Bow and arrow as used by Robin Hood
8. Tony Montana's "little friend" the machine gun in Scarface
9. The planet-destroying Death Star from Star Wars
10. Oddjob's boller hat in the 007 flick Goldfinger

I have to agree with what's number one. Indeed it is the best!

Rambos compass knife and his big gun in the new flick should be on there. Rockys hands should have made it as well!

Weapons of Freddy and Jason should be on that list

Jesse Ventura’s gattling gun from Predator…
“The Gov.” is the first person in cinematic history to use a hand-held version of this weapon on camera.

The alien’s shoulder cannon was pretty cool, too.

Being that FOX conducted the study, I’m surprised there was no mention of either of these.

Could a Terminator be considered a weapon?

If so, it should make the list.

Bluto · « **Reply #5 on:** January 31, 2008, 01:42:52 PM »

put this on the list

The 1989 (Keaton) Batmobile.
Gattling guns on sides…
Bulletproof…
Fireproof…
Cocoon style shields…
Voice command control system…
Can deploy one little tennis ball-sized bomb strong enough to destroy an entire factory…

Why do they have the death star, it's out of place in the theme of weapons used in the rest of the list. I would agree, number one the lightsaber.

light saber turned pretty gay in the newer star wars movies

so much that it doesnt deserve to be anywhere near the top of that list

Yes and the Predators knives, that look so cool when they come out

Montague · « **Reply #10 on:** February 01, 2008, 12:40:11 PM »

Yeah.
Pretty much everything in the Predator's arsenal is impressive.

How about his "nuclear bomb" wrist watch?
I'd happily buy my boss one of those as a retirement gift.

ummmm...ok?

They didn't operate any different, and still shown a fluorecent "sword".

How DARE you speak this way about a lightsaber!

The Darkside beckons upon you!

While the Predator is arguably the ultimate (or at least, ultimately equipped) killing machine, he’s no match for this guy…

And Blutes,
I’m surprised you of all people haven’t proclaimed this as the “perfect weapon.”
