Description:
From wiping memories to rewinding life, there are some movie gadgets that would feel right at home in real life.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

One of the great things about movies is how they can show us possible gadgets and other forms of technology that make us wish they exist in real life. Over the years, these gadgets have amazed us on the screen, allowing us to at
least have a peek at the future that we hope we might get. Check out the best Netflix TV shows this month

The best part is that even if some of these gadgets dont exist in real life, some people are already working on making it a reality. For example, it may probably take years to build a real-working lightsaber, but we wouldnt hesitate to purchase one whenever that time has come.

For now, have a read at some of the best movie gadgets we want in real life. DeLorean (Back to the Future) (Image credit: Universal)

Its not a gadget, but the flux capacitor that runs inside this DeLorean is what makes time travel possible (as conceived by the great Doc Brown). Of course, its an engineering feat, and while the flying version is a fan favourite, we still prefer the first iteration (we may probably need a bolt
of lightning to be able to use it). AR Computer (Minority Report) (Image credit: DreamWorks)

This futuristic thriller starring Tom Cruise contains a scene where he navigates a computer seemingly shown in AR. Using special gloves as the
mouse, he carefully navigates through the menu with extreme precision. A similar, less fancy tech exists today, but we cant wait to see this in the future when theyve perfected it. Neuralyzer (Men in Black) (Image credit: Sony)

The perfect tool for a bad date just kidding. The Neuralyzer is the Men in Blacks main gadget for letting people forget their most recent memory (depending on how far they want your memory to be erased). It provided a source of laughs in the film, but this is one gadget wed love to see in our hands. Iron Man suit (Iron Man) (Image credit: Disney)

Tony Starks Iron Man suit became one of the most iconic gadgets on film. Its multiple iterations have various features that only get better with each movie. A similar tech also exists in real life, but its still far from the
red and gold beauty that weve seen on the big screen Hoverboard (Back to the Future Part II) (Image credit: Universal)

Another Back to the Future tech makes its way to this list. In the sequel, we get a peek at the future where kids ditch skateboards in favour of hoverboards. Made by Mattel (as seen in the movie), it resembles much like a real skateboard except for the wheels and yes, it levitates. Dream Machine (Inception) (Image credit: Warner Bros)

The dream machine used in Inception doesnt exactly scream hi-tech, but its function is what makes us want to try it out. This dream machine allows
anyone to go into a deeper conscious, induced by the chemicals that you
inject yourself with it. Its definitely cool and a dangerous tool if ever one exists. Transporter (Star Trek) (Image credit: Paramount)

All this traffic on the roads made us wish the transporter from Star Trek was real. Imagine if you can just hop onto a platform and just teleport your way to any destination you want. Goodbye, jet lag! Remote Control (Click) (Image credit: Sony)

The movie wasnt the best, but this Adam Sandler film showcased a remote control that you can use in real life. Too noisy? Just press mute. Didnt see whats coming? Just press rewind. This may be a tech that will never happen, but you have to admit that using it in your hands is absolutely fantastic. Light Cycle (Tron) (Image credit: Disney)

One of the highlights of the classic 80s film and its sequel is this incredible light cycle that the characters use while playing in a match. As cool as it sounds, the high speed and light trails it leaves behind can kill you something that hopefully wont happen when they manage to create one today. Lightsaber (Star Wars) (Image credit: Disney)

The coolest gadget among the entire lot, the lightsaber is the ultimate
weapon used by the Jedi and the Sith in the Star Wars universe. Powered by crystals that emit a powerful bolt of energy that can cut through anything, this is one gadget we would happily buy if it existed in real life we may just need some training to do first.
