I forgot the most devestating weapon in sci-fi history is the Enterprises' own warp core. It seems that its own engines are always threating to destory the ship and the fabric of space every episode.

Long Long Ago, there were a man who tried to make his skills ultimate. Because of his bloody life, its no accident that he was involved in the troubles.
And that is why you hear people yelling FOR THE EMPEROR rather than FOR LOGICAL AND QUANTIFIABLE BASED DECISIONS FOR THE BETTERMENT OF THE MAJORITY!

Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.
Not quite as impressive as a MAC cannon, but I'd prefer a suit of MJOLNIR armor in the latest mark, as long as the augmentations to make it operable.
Not nearly as outright destructive as many of the other weapons in this thread, but the suit would give me the survivability to inflict maximum damage with any normal available earth weapon, as well as unarmed combat.

The Sandman's gun from Logan's Run!
Come on people. How cool would it be to burst through the door of your local mall at 9 AM with all the elderly people speed walking laps around the mall while you were screaming at the top of your lungs, "Its last day runners! Run Runners!"[/img]
You were watching Logan's Run and you were thinking about guns?
Tsk, kids of today.
BTW: If by "elderly people" you mean the over thirty, I'm screwed.
I first watched Logans Run when I was yellow, I had to turn green to properly appreciate Jenny.
n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.
It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. By the juice of the brew my thoughts aquire speed, my mind becomes strained, the strain becomes a warning. It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion.
Yes, that is an assault rifle with a chainsaw bayonet. Zombies, here I come.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made.
Can't believe no-one mentioned this bit of 40k-ish hardware.....
"Jakara Monomolecular sword The monomolecular sword carried by the Jakara Spyrer is a marvel of molecular engineering. The blade is a living crystalline structure, which constantly renews its edge as it is blunted. The sword's edge is only one molecule thick and can slice through any but the densest matter.
The sword counts as a power sword that ignores the first 2 points of armour."

Of all the races of the universe the Squats have the longest memories and the shortest tempers. They are uncouth, unpredictably violent, and frequently drunk. Overall, I'm glad they're on our side!

"Madness is like gravity... All you need is a little push."
I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.
Total Perspective Vortex
The Total Perspective Vortex is allegedly the most horrible torture device to which a sentient being can be subjected.
When you are put into the Vortex you are given just one momentary glimpse of the entire unimaginable infinity of creation, and somewhere in it a tiny little mark, a microscopic dot on a microscopic dot, which says, "You are here."[5]
Located on Frogstar World B, the machine was originally invented by one Trin Tragula in order to annoy his wife. Because she was forever nagging him for having no sense of proportion, he decided to invent something that would show her what having a sense of proportion really meant. Unfortunately the shock of being placed in the Vortex destroyed her brain, but Trin Tragula's grief was tempered by the knowledge that he had been right and she had been wrong. In Adams's words, the Total Perspective Vortex illustrated that "In an infinite universe, the one thing sentient life cannot afford to have is a sense of proportion."[6]
The machine produces a virtual reality model of the entire universe by means of the axiom that any piece of matter is affected by all other matter. The Vortex reconstructs the universe through computer processing of a high-resolution scan ("extrapolated matter analysis") of a piece of fairy cake. In the words of the Hitchhiker's Guide,
...since every piece of matter in the Universe is in someway affected by every other piece of matter in the Universe, it is in theory possible to extrapolate the whole of creation - every Galaxy, every sun, every planet, their orbits, their composition, and their economic and social history from, say, one small piece of fairy cake.[7]
Only Zaphod Beeblebrox is reported to have survived the Vortex unscathed (and then to have eaten the small piece of fairy cake). When it showed him the "You Are Here" marker, Zaphod correctly interpreted the Vortex as simply telling him that he was the most important being in the universe. This is due to the fact that he entered the Vortex in an artificial universe, which had been specially created for his benefit (thus making him the most important being in it) by Zarniwoop. After emerging from the artificial universe's Total Perspective Vortex, Zaphod ate the piece of fairy cake, saying "If I told you how much I needed this, I wouldn't have time to eat it."

I liked the "Blame-thrower" from the Mystery Men movie (Yeah, there was a comic. Never read it. Don't know). Christmas with the family would take a huge left-turn to the worst with one of those babies.
