• I would want a legit Green Ranger suit from Power Rangers equiped with Dragon Dagger and a real helmet, like the super balls expensive ones from Cosplay. This would acomplish many nerdy goals i had set for my life. 1. I want to go out to bars on halloween dressed in an aweome green ranger suit. This would be awesome because of the sheer novelty of everyone seeing the green ranger dancing it up at a bar on haloween. 2. I would stage a series of awesmoe photo sessions doing awesome things in my green ranger costume. Talk about a set of photos that belong on your coffee table. 3. The suit would compliment my already competly awesome Green Ranger Belt Buckle that i wear on weekly basis. 4. I would want to walk around in wal-mart dressed as the green ranger. 5. The Green Ranger was the most awesome of all the power rangers.

• I want to be spider-man. No, not that closet-Satanist /quasi-Oedipal Peter Parker, or that emo-guy from the third movie (although I totally dig jazz age standards like Fever, so I might, I MIGHT do some whacky acrobatic dancing). Comic book superpowers are sweet, and Spider-man's are the very sweetest of all. Super-strength. Check Super-agility. Check Super-movement. Check. Super-senses. Check. Ejaculate quick hardening fluid over my enemies... uh... Let's just say organic webshooters. Check. Wall-crawling. Check. Super-healing. Check. Spider-pheromones. Check. Spider-man has got it made. Just get rid of that whole great-power=great-responsibility thing and life would be pretty sweet for this Spider-man. Sure Superman's got his own allure, but flying is kind of stale. It doesn't wow the crowds like super-agile spider-gymnastics. People don't flock to the Olympic flying events, its all about the acrobatic flips and somersaults. Plus I don't care how useful super-breath, heat-vision and x-ray vision would be in everyday life web-slinging is where its at. Get 'round the city super-fast, tie up my small number of enemies and my super-model girlfriend and I can explore all the bondage potential in the bedroom. Spider-man's powers would make life pretty fucking sweet.

• Anyone played gunstar heroes? Remember the mining level with that giant robot boss that had 7 differant forms? Aptly named Seven force? Yeah I want that. Not the robot, I want the mining level (Though the robot is awesome). I want to blast through a huge mine in a anti-gravity cart fighting the ulitmate boss from my favorite game. Double flame all the way baby!

• I agree with GreyFox 00. Tim and Eric and anything they do needs to be obliterated from the planet. Is like their dad the CEO of Cartoon Network or something? I know I already submitted a wish and it's too late, but seriously why does TV have to suck so bad? We can't just pay for the channels we want, and then shit like that covers the ones we do. Adult swim has some horribly animated shows that just flat out aren't funny. Mainly recent additions. I'll admit I'm not into anime, because things very often seem to get either a) melodramatic or b) ridiculous in short order. Not always, but often enough for me not to really feel like weeding out a good one. Therefore I'd love for anime to get it's own channel. And if we could downvote/upvote tv shows/episodes realtime instead of Nielson ratings maybe shit would change for the better .

• Two Words: Colonial Marine. I want to be a badass marine shooting xenomorphs with my pulse rifle while shouting orders to Hudson and Hicks that "WE ARE LEAVING!". I would need a clause in my wish that I don't end up facehuggered unless it's with a hot colonial woman I save. As well, I need Fox to turn back the clock and give the Aliens franchise to me, since I could have shit better movies then AVP and AVP2

• I wished for the same thing--have done for years actually! Probably we weren't the only ones either. "Dantheman said: I've often fantasied about going back in time and buying all kinds of toys (Kenner Star Wars, Mego) and other rare thing, and sell them in the present day for loads of cash. Of course, I'd keep some set aside for myself to enjoy. The big score would be newsstand-fresh copies of Action Comics #1." So now I change my wish to "I wish I am a wildly successful rich cool-guy who has sex with super-hot women all the time and is too vapid to realize what an insufferable twat I am." Ignorance and bliss. But now I see this guy already did that one--"RustyCrowe said: I'd wish I were cool." So now I wish for...Kaneda's bike from "Akira." Probably somebody already wished for that too...

• A new Star Trek series - in the Abramsverse, with Abrams running the show and the entire cast of the new movie.

• I wish Bryan Fuller would get the credit he deserves and people would stop screwing him over. Dead Like Me - Fabulous show that ended earlier than it should have but went out loved. Then someone ruined my memories of the series with that turd of a movie. Wonderfalls - Need I say more than "Fox"... Amazing Screw On Head - Brilliant voice cast, true to the source material without being a direct adaptation. How did this not make it past a pilot? Pushing Daisies - It seems no one will give the man more than two seasons. Great series that shouldn't have been on broadcast TV in the first place but had still managed to make a niche for itself. Heroes - Fuller was without a doubt the reason the 1st season was so good. He left to go make Pushing Daisies and the Heroes immediately decided to take a shit in the audience's mouth. As good as the first season was it could have been even better. Fuller had a plot worked out where Claire and Zach paralleled each other with their "coming out" she with her superpowers and he with his homosexuality. Who fucked this up? Fox. Fox fucked up a show on NBC. I am gonna let that sink in for a while. Fox fucked up a show on NBC. Fox had already decided the actor portraying Zach would be John Connor and made him drop the show when they found out his character would be gay... Fox fucked up a show on NBC. FUCK. Heroes started to make a return to form at the end of this last season when Fuller returned to the head writer role but he is out again to make a new pilot. My prayers go out to him, he has an unfortunate track record.

• A Star Wars snuff movie starring Jar Jar Binks. It'd have very nasty stuff inflicted upon him. And give it away free to anyone who went to the cinema to watch Phantom Menace. And have all production costs debited to Lucas.

• I wish I had that robot double of Buffy the Vampire Slayer...

• When I was a kid I had a weekly allowance of five bucks for doing household chores like taking out the trash and feeding the hamsters. Every Saturday when I got my five dollars I would have my dad take me to Wal-Mart and I would spend 98% of my allowance on an action figure from the greatest franchise ever: The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. After years of this I had a massive collection of Turtles, villains, side characters and specialty versions of them all. One day when I was a teenager my mother had a garage sale. After this happened I couldn't find my beloved collection of turtles anymore. When I asked her about it she told me that I hadn't played with them recently and she sold them. She sold my fucking turtles. The hard earned monuments of my youth. Thrown away for a fraction of what I had paid for them. Everything from Ace Duck to Rocksteady to Usagi Yojimbo was gone. Usagi Fucuking Yojimbo! If I had one wish it would have to be the striking of this act from my history. My mother never would have touched my turtles, the nerd in me wouldn't have years of resentment against her and I would be playing with Mondo Gecko and Panda Kahn right now instead of typing this. I wish I wish I wish...

• Sam Winchester. That is all.

• Adamantium Claws

• I wish that I knew a little more about comics when (in my teens) I cut up my original first editions 1 to 4 of The Crow.... TO COVER MY SCHOOL BOOKS WITH!!!!

• I wish our world was the world of the Fallout seriOH SHI-

• I wish Pokemon were real, I would dress up in an awful space suit and start a cult of like minded space suit wearing teens and make speeches about using Pokemon to bend the laws of space and time to my will, then I would make good on those speeches.

• I wish I had bought lots and lots of preferred stock in 20th Century Fox a week before STAR WARS (Episode IV: A New Hope) came out the first time.

• I wish I hadn't taken apart or destroyed many of my toys (often Beast Wars Transformers) in an attempt to splice them together and customize them. I miss a great deal of my childhood toys like my Optimal Optimus Primal, my TMNT Technodrome and my Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers Thunder Megazord.

• Zachary, Sorry, I didn't read anything that came before my comment. But yeah, the more of us that wish it, the better!

• I'd wish for a 20-story R.O.B. Not necessarily a mechanical doom-bringing one, but a gentle, metal giant. He'd get kittens down from trees, help old women cross the street, feed the homeless, and be the most kick ass clubhouse a kid could ever want. Or, he could fire death lasers and battle Godzilla.

• I'd wish that I suddenly lived in a world full of giant robots, desperate women, and only Marvel comics! Then I'd pilot Tequila Gundam, and go off to perform heroic deeds, such as stopping crime, or forcing Michael Bay to watch me destroy the US military (in a very dull way! Muhahaha!)! Finally, I'd form a super league of Gundams made up of Stan Lee, Barack Obama, Tom Hanks, Mario, and Captain America. We would then burn all traces of the Clone Saga, sleep with desperate (and unnaturally busty) women (many of whom have a tendency to look like fictional characters), among other awesome things. Oh, and Jeph Loeb & Joe Q would have all the Mortal Kombat fatalities performed on them by Bruce Lee for writting One More Day & Red Hulk!

• I wish that microsoft would finally die and stop holding the industry back.

• Talk about open. Good luck on finding a number one. The fact that you have history revisionist geeks mixing with Nodame Cantible geeks is almost a mind**** in itself. As for me I'm with tvtastegood. I'll judge you and I deem you worthy. Wife cosplay is always a good nerd wish. (And very impossible :) )

• @Izandra then she can get Johnny Depp, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson or whomever she wants.lol That or he can have a manga/ anime themed wedding.

• @Grey Fox 00: I don't think Ms. ToplessRobot's going to be too crazy about the marrying Slave Leia Kristen Bell part, lol.

• @Anon Uh... VHS or DVD?

• Duh,I want one of em matter building thingies from Star trek that could make anything you asked it and destroyed the need for money and incredibly did not spell the end of mankind. That way I can make it materialize anything I want (all the toys,cosplay suits,crappy memorabilia.etc you think of any show or movie in a whim if you're a nerd) as well as making me a holodeck where I can forget about my survival or that of my species while I lose myself in an immersive personal porn fantasy (if you're a nerd I guess you can make this porn fantasy be Slave Leia themed)

• Bring "White Castle" to Southern California!

• My box of Transformers was stolen when I was 8. It was a copy paper box that I had gotten that was filled to the brim with them. That ended my childhood innocence. They were taken from a storage locker in California that they had been left in when we moved back to Ohio. It was an accident that they had been left behind and I was sad. Then when dad emptied the locker he found it had been burglarized and that was one of the things that they had taken. I really miss those toys. I would have kept them. I would keep them. That is my nerdiest wish, to have my favorite childhood toys back.

• I wish there was a working hack that would let me transport playable characters from one video game into another video game. Spider-Man in Lego Death Star? Link in Jak's realm? Superman in Memoria? Weird, but cool.

• Okay Just thought of some more stuff... Once again using The Philosophers' Legacy (that's if it were real) BUY CARTOON NETWORK AND ADULT SWIM, AND CANCEL TIM AND ERIC AWESOME SHOW GREAT JOB AND MAKE SURE THEY DON"T MAKE ANOTHER SHOW!!!!! That and Bring/put more Anime on U.S. Television.Good Anime like One-Piece, and Ghost in the Shell and get that Appleseed TV series made.

• I wasn't going to enter, but here it is: Wolfgang Petersen was supposed to bring Orson Scott Card's book Ender's Game to the big screen. Petersen showed he can do isolation in alien environments with Das Boot. He can do large scale combat and CGI like he did in Troy. Most of all, he can do sci-fi with character development like he did in Enemy Mine. If there was ever a chance at a decent movie of Ender's Game being made, this was the best chance it would have at being done well. Alas, it all fell apart. My favorite book lost it's chance at translation to movie. Rob, make it happen, for all nerd-kind.....

• Hmmm... so many points brought out and awesome wishes. But I'd ask for the Philosopher's Legacy from MGS 3: Snake Eater. Why? In the game its made out to be a amount that could never really be spent ( a wiki entry put's it a 1.2 trillion). What I would do is Invest part of it then do the following: - PAY ROB LIEFELD AND JEPH LOEB TO NEVR MAKE OR WRITE ANOTHER COMIC AGAIN!!!! - Make another many more seasons of firefly. Leave the movie Serenity alone making it the series ending but make new episodes the occur before and after the movie. - Buy out Harmony Gold and fire those idiots. That way I can bring over Macross Zero, Macross Frontier and Macross 7. These can't be brought over Because HG trademarked The terms Macross and UN Spacy. - Maybe make a Star Wars squeal. Thats right SQUEAL not prequeal.lets' concentrate on what happens after the Glactic empire falls - Make Cybernetics Real. Try and advance the world in the direction that Masamune Shirow envisioned in ghost in the shell. which would eventually lead to life sized gundams. - Bring One-peice over faster to satisfy Rob Bricken. - Give Rob bricken some enough funds to marry Kristen Bell while she wears the Slave Leia outfit or who ever he chooses - Make More awesome action figures, statues and other memorabilia based off of anime, movies and just about everything else awesome!!! - Make 2 more seasons of Heroes. Now before you judge; I would throw ie fire the current writers and directors And get someone good who could write. Maybe Alan Moore writing or Martin Scorsese to direct. - Make decent endings to all the oh so many anime's that have horrible endings Which Brings up: - MAKE GOOD LIVE ACTION ANIME/ MANGA MOVIES!! - ELIMINATE EVERYONE ASSOCIATED WITH DRAGONBALL EVEOLUTION 1&2!!! - STOP RESIDENT EVIL 4 FROM BEING MADE!!! and that all I can think of at the moment beside cure diseases and all the other bad stuff.

• I'm not saying this to be politically correct. I'm hoping it would keep some shows on the air that otherwise get cancelled or never get made at all. Can production companies realize that women can be closet geeks - and therefore make up a LARGE PART OF AN VIEWING AUDIENCE for science fiction/fantasy shows. I'm a guy. I 've met a lot of women who are big fans of movies like Alien and Terminator - even Watchmen. Writers for TV like Chris Carter, Joss Whedon, J.J. Abrams, and Russell T. Davies (Dr. Who) write a few characters that women identify with or or at least find interesting. That's really all it takes. You don't have to push it. You don't have to make big feminist statements. You don't have to have lots of pretty boy actors on the show. I even know women who bought games like Street Fighter and World of Warcraft. The ratio of women to men Harry Potter fans I've met seems probably 2 to 1. This even applies to gay people - who pay money for entertainment . . .

• When I was in college, a friend of mine and I went in on a box VHS set of Star Blazers. We were incredibly excited, because the series was so awesome when we were kids. We turned on the first tape and it was everything we remembered. The awesome opening credits. The awesome theme song. And then... ...well... ...there were the silly alien planets, the animation that was choppy at best, the bad voiceover, the cliche characters...by the time they got to the planet of the giant bee people, I'd had enough. In the TV wasteland of the early 1980s, it was awesome. In a post-Miyazaki world, it was just mediocre. I watched the opening credits again just the other day on YouTube, but I had no real desire to watch the series again. Turns out part of my childhood just didn't live up to the pure vein injection of awesome serum I'd remembered it as. In retrospect, the show was disappointing. I wish it hadn't been.

• Open a successful chain of Humanity Upgrade Marts. "Vampire form? 49.95 with ten-thousand-year warranty!" "Want wings and a tail? 129.98! This week only!"

• I just want to fuck an anime so bad.

• Semi-double post, but I also gotta (mostly) agree with what Themac339 said.

• Since I'm not a smart man, I'd wish for the idea that would allow me to create a spark that would trigger a chain reaction that would: -Get anime respected as an art form capable of conveying multiple genres (no more of this "cartoons are for kids" crap); this would also apply to a good portion of American animated series (as well as shows from around the world). Also, all anime would be available on region-free Blu-Ray dubbed and subtitled in multiple languages (I want my Gurren Lagann in Swahili with Esperanto subtitles). -Give game shows some much-needed and overdue recognition as a noteworthy genre (this would apply to all the good and lesser-known shows conceived between 1950 and 1990, such as Press Your Luck, $ale of the Century, Card Sharks and The Big Showdown, among others, with Winning Lines being the lone exception from 2000). Also, Jim Peck would take over for Jack Barry on the Joker's Wild in 1984 instead of Bill Cullen, who would still be on Blockbusters, which would run until 1988. -Bring Peter Tomarken back to life, reverse-age him back to how he looked in late 1985, have him assume the mantle of host of the new Press Your Luck (before Bob Boden, Fremantle Media and/or Ricki Lake can ruin it), and then become President of the United States of America in 2000 (thereby preventing most of the modern world's problems; Barack Obama would assume the mantle in 2008 and continue Tomarken's legacy as Greatest President Ever). I'd also like to meet the man (as well as Marc Summers, his vice-president). -Finish the third season of Sonic The Hedgehog (the 1993-1995 Saturday morning animated series that was aborted way too soon by moronic ABC execs who had dollar signs on their minds with the Disney-ABC merger). -Allow me to meet Hitomi Aizawa, Angelika Libera-Baran and Kayo Haga in person (note to other nerds: the first one should be easy to Google, but good luck finding the next two). -Pretty much everything else Jeff Harris said (especially the ones about reorganizing Cartoon Network and the Sci-Fi Channel). (As for the parts about becoming healthy, wealthy and wise, well, this is a nerd blog; non-nerd-related feel-good posts belong elsewhere.)

• My one nerdy wish would be to meet Jedi Master Yoda, just so I can ask him the question, "What are you?"

• I wish I could have everyone else's wishes.

• I'd move in with the bots from MST3K, like Mike did at the end of the series. Imagine how wonderful all television, and perhaps the rest of life, would be with cynical bots to point out comic foibles.

• I can not in good conscience limit myself and the nerd world at large to just one wish. Let's be honest, the state of the nerd world is pretty bleak right now and one wish is not nearly enough to fix it. I have read some of the other posts and there are some great ideas on here,so if I'm forced to have just one wish it would be that nerds could control thier own nerd destiny. All of our nerddom is controled be old white farts in suits that have no idea what they are doing or what the fans want. We need nerds in charge of nerd things!!!! I know everyone can't love everything,but I bet if nerds controled nerd stuff we would have better movies,comics,toys,cartoons,card games,etc.

• I'd recraft the world in my own image. This Eden would be a glorious, slightly nerdier place and one quite frankly worth living in. The first thing I'd do in this newfound role as a deity is the resurrection of TechTV and a massive head-to-toe reconstruction of Cartoon Network. TechTV's resurrection is purely for technical reasons. I don't have broadband. I'm not getting broadband anytime soon. Revision3 and TWiT.TV are nice, but it'd be nice if they were on a television, and considering the founders and creators of both have ties to TechTV, the late, great technology-based channel that was bought by Comcast and merged with G4 because TTV was in more households and had X-Play, a gaming show that outclassed everything they had aired, perhaps a digital cable network using the TechTV name could bring them together in a big way. The head-to-toe reconstruction of Cartoon Network is for selfish reasons as well. I hate seeing live-action on Cartoon Network. What the hell was basketball on trampolines, fake paranormal kids, and other reality ripoffs doing on Cartoon Network? I want cartoons. I want a lineup lined with cartoons from the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and today. I want Cartoon Network picking up shows from all points of the globe. I want Toonami, Toonapalooza, and Toon Heads back on the lineup. I want Looney Tunes on television. Cartoon Network could do that now, but they're completely ran by people that have to Google Ben Hardaway, Preston Blair, Shamus Culhane, and Maurice Noble to understand their contributions to animation. Second, all the televised works of Joss Whedon, Judd Apatow, and Bryan Fuller would be on the air and I would return those shows prematurely cancelled back when they were new. Yeah, I'm primarily referring to Firefly, Freaks and Geeks, Undeclared, Wonderfalls, Dead Like Me, and Pushing Daisies. I'd give them all a full episodic run with definitive endings. Also in this parallel Eden, American Idol, Dancing With The Stars, The Real World, The Real Housewives of Orange County, Laguna Beach, 90210, Gossip Girl, Flavor/Rock of Love, The Bachelor(ette), and Twilight would not exist. And there would be no such person as Michael Bay or Stephen Sommers. Asimov's positronic brain technology was real, so we could him back with us, along with Douglas Adams, Gene Roddenberry, and maybe Jules Verne. George Lucas wouldn't feel that he needed to "tinker" with the original three Star Wars movies. Also, I'd have the Sci-Fi Channel return to its roots airing and acquiring science-fiction programs of all types (including sitcoms) from all eras and all studios. This also includes titles from the UK that haven't aired in the States in ages and Japanese-produced wares with a more linear lineup (i.e. not just marathons). And I'd put them in a pair of channels: Syfy (for more modern shows from the mid-80s to today) and Sci Fi Retro (for those movies and shows from beginning of the sci-fi entertainment genre to the post-Star Wars era). Seriously, I want that channel more than the TechTV resurrection. That would be nice.

• easy - the old wish for endless wishes: i wish for a fully functioning holodeck with infinite energy.

• A Lynda Carteresque Wonder Woman of my very own, who would include me in her identity changing spins. She would also be my video game buddy. I like Wonder Woman, she's neat!

• I wish that I had a real light saber and a matching colored saber key chain. Because you never know when you have to open a can, fend off a bad guy, or need an alternative way to shave.

• When I was a kid I wanted to be a Barba Poppa more than anything else in the world. Now I kinda think that being a gelatinous blob, while somewhat interesting at first glance, wouldn't be altogether pleasant after a while (though some might say I am a gelatinous blob already, so maybe dreams can come true). I also want a 1975 VW Super Beetle done up like a Batmobile with bat-shaped steering wheel, fins on the back fenders and custom license plate that says 'Bat Bug' on it. Ahhhh, perchance to dream. Finally, I would join forces with a couple of other guys and a super hot, way out of my league looking chick and travel across the country in that Bat Bug solving mysteries and performing in a retro rock band on Saturday nights and the occasional Sunday special event (like a Bar Mitsva or 35th wedding anniversary). The sexual tension between me and the super hot, way out of my league looking chick would be dense and obvious, causing many uncomfortable moments for both myself and the band. We would eventually date, but it wouldn't work out and the band would break up. Then I'd spin off into my own adventures, just me and the Bat Bug, but it wouldn't be as good and last maybe three or four weeks at best. Finally, I'd have a little electronic wristwatch programmed with all sorts of different words in it so that I know how to spell Bar Mitzva properly when typing blog posts and other assorted messages that require words like Bar Mitzva.

• I wish that I could get my novel's first chapters into excellent shape. That people would then really want to read my book, and I'd actually get published, leading to a career of nerddom.

• An anatomically correct 'Stretch Armstrong'.

• My nerdiest wish? To be the fifth Ghostbuster.Think about it. You zap ghosts for a living, the city of New York loves you, and you hang out with Dan Akyroyd all fucking day! I can hear the cheers and cries of an onlooking crowd as I, their savior, emerge from the New York Library carrying with me the plague of ghosts punishing their poor city. Truly, its an honorable and caring wish. ........... Or, you know, full body oil massage from Power Girl. That too.

• Realistically? I want Black Fire Convoy and Black God Magnus to form Black God Fire Convoy (Japanese Lucky Draw Transformers). How's that for nerdy? There are believed to be 450 Black Fire Convoys, but it is unknown how many Black God Magnus's exist. Only one has appeared in a public sale.

• My ultimate nerd wish is that a T-1000 would go back in time, and quietly assassinate Kevin J. Anderson in the cradle so that he can never put his greasy, hack writer hands on the Dune series. Also, Frank Herbert wouldn't have died until he completed Book 7. That's it really. I guess I'd also like to Aes Sedai, or be Seven of Nine in some alternate universe, but this is much more important. Bi-la kaifa.

• I'd wish I were cool.

• I have two simple wishes. 1 - For Rob Bricken to have the opportunity to rape the skulls of all Fox executives and escape all charges. 2 - Back when I was 10, I had a transformable Soundwave that actually PLAYED cassette tapes. I would really love to have that again.

• I have two: 1) I would love to live in the Babylon 5 universe, on the station, maybe in Psi Corps. Unlike in most comic book universes, you're not really in serious danger of injury unless you are a main character (well, except for plagues, but mostly if you're an alien). Anyway, I would buy a crate of the Bab-bear-lon 5 teddy bears and sell them just to annoy Sheridan. ;) 2) Hollywood would abruptly pull its head out of its collective rectum about what they think people want and put out good, intelligent movies, like Harlan Ellison's screenplay of "I, Robot" instead of that cr*pfest that probably had Asimov spinning in his grave. Oh, and I like the wish about the vehicles peeing on Bay, but only if they made a DvD of it so I could watch it again and again.

• I wish Anno hadn't totally fucked up the ending of Neon Genesis Evangelion, I don't care what purists and Anno apologists say, it pretty much gave the middle finger to the viewer. The first time I watched Eva, I loved it, I was fucking addicted to it and completely immersed in the story and characters. Then comes the two part "conclusion" which took everything the series had built up to and promised and took a chainsaw to it in the most sadistic way possible. Since were speaking of skull fucking, It felt like I was being fucked through both sockets while watching Anno's half-assed, self-indulgent psycho-analytic acid trip bullshit. This was the biggest trauma of my nerd life, and I never really got over it. My wish is that Neon Genesis(the original series, not the movies or remakes) had a brilliant, epic ending fitting for such a amazing series,It would be one, if not the best ending arcs of any anime out there, full of pathos, action, visceral eva battles, moving character drama, suspense and a touch of humor and most importantly, a completely satisfying resolution. No loose ends would be left, all the characters especially Shingi(who grows some balls), Rei and Asuka all get significant screen time and their character development reaches an appropriate climax. This will be an ending just as famous for being awesome as the original ending was infamous for being terrible,controversial and inconclusive. If this wish is granted I know that when the time comes, I could die a happy nerd and my soul would be at peace.

• Simple wish - I wish that George Lucas had had a heart attack on June 1st, 1997 - it didn't kill him, but he had to take things REALLY easy and so he had to turn over the Prequels to someone who he could trust with the property and who would do it right - just about anyone who wasn't George Lucas.

• @Kevin Hey don't steal my wish! at least wait a little while so its not soooo obvious! oh well, as long as the dream comes true somehow..

• I wish I could have my own network and have enough resources to bring back all the great TV shows that were canceled before their time. Call it, The Anti-FOX Network.

• I wish could hang out with Jawas for 24 hours!

• I wish that I had unlimited resources and was in charge of my own Television Network... There I would right all television wrongs, bringing back shows that never should have been canceled... (i could make a huge list but i think everyone here has their own in mind...) -sigh- One day...

• I wish that girls would want to be more like Amy Mainzer or Carrie Byron...that'd be really hot.

• I'd wish to have Nintendo rename LOZ:LttP to it's original japanese name, Triforce of the Gods. And also change the name of Link's Awakening in Japan and abroad to "The Ballad of the Windfish." As well as renaming ZeldaII: The Adventure of Link, to LoZ: The Sleeping Princess. Once this is done, then all the LoZ titles will finally match the them of naming them after Objects or Persons of Power. Best of all, it's SO EASY. Nintendo only has to do a press release. And they can re-release the games, so they can get even more money. And I, nay, the world can have all the names in the franchise match.

• My nerdiest wish? I wish had a Michael Bay-esque movie budget to remake Rat Phink a Boo Boo. I'd give it a new non-spoiler title, and trailers and an ad campaign to set it up as a crime thriller. And just like the original, there would be 40 minutes of a serious film. Then, the moment that you could pin point where the script was thrown out the window and becomes nothing but bad superhero costumes and a guy in a gorilla suit. I just want to sit in the critics' screening and watch the looks of horror on their faces when they realize someone spent $300 million to remake this piece of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=delsahIO6LM">shit.</a>

• To go back in time and bang Carrie Fisher. That is all.

• To create a special computer that would allow me to have sex with both Mary Jane and Black Cat at the same time.

• My wish ... George Lucas dies peacefully in his sleep in 1988, relatively pleased with Return of the Jedi. All his family members agree that he was pleased with the Star Wars product AS IS, and the franchise is tied in legal estate and litigation for decades to come, leading to NO MORE STAR WARS MOVIES OR TV SERIES to be made. Personalized extended universe productions continue via a new medium called the internet, but the film franchise dies in 1988 with George Lucas.

• I would wish for Kate Beckinsale in her full Selene get up to battle Jennifer Garner as Sydney Bristow to battle each other for the right to win my heart! Hey, a nerd can dream, dammit!

• Me? I'd like to personally hunt down every adult authority figure who ever wrongly punished me for things I didn't do and make them suffer in ways which scream "poetic justice!" (i.e. I'd force-feed rat poison or some other disgusting stuff to that one camp counselor who "confiscated" my packages and ate my food). Yes, I can be a vengeful person (what can I say, I have a strong sense of justice)... but then again, there's nothing exactly "nerdy" about wanting to get justice/revenge for the few times where some @$$hole "responsible" adult mistreated me, so barring that... I guess my wish would be so that I hadn't played games on my SEGA Genesis so much that I caused it to burn out (at least that's what I think caused it to break down and stop functioning, and bear in mind, this was years ago).

• And in no way related to those terrible Star Wars Transformer figures from a few years ago.

• Star Wars vs. Transformers Imagine a fleet of X, Y, A, and B-Wings mixing it up in the Corporate Sector (where Cybertron is found to be, since the Corporate Sector was barely touched in the Expanded Star Wars Universe) against a fleet of Starscreams and the like. Megatron could transform into a Darksaber-type gun and Optimus could turn out to be Dash Rendar's Outrider, hidden in vehicle mode all this time. I know Dash seemed like a gingier, crappier replacement for Han Solo while he was frozen in carbonite, but I always loved him. Admiral Ackbar could have a sweet new catch phrase to add to "It's a trap!" and "Your tastebuds can't repel flavor of this magnitude!". No Ewoks of Gungans, because they have no place in space. And no Jedi children. Only original trilogy characters, plus Dash Rendar, Mara Jade and Grand Admiral Thrawn. And for the inevitable fan fiction, the Darksaber Megatron could have sex with the docking bay of a Super Star Destroyer.

• I wish my life were like a point and click adventure game. Something in the style of "Grim Fandango" or the "Monkey Island" and "Sam and Max" series. I want to be able to insult swordfight, put random objects in an inventory that never takes up any space, shoot things with impunity, and be able to rattle off memorable one-liners to impossible enemies.

• I wish we didn't have to shit so often. Maybe we could have a wee drawer just below our stomachs that contains all our waste nicely bagged up and ready to be binned. All the wiping just depresses me.

• It's easy, all you have to do is wish for the ability to wish whatever you want at anytime. So you could wish any nerdy at anytime.

• I wish my best friend, who is a film critic, would rediscover her long-lost passion for anime and watch my favourite shows with me and discuss them with me. I miss listening to her excited monologues about the use of camera angles in Samurai Champloo, and reading her technical notes on the merits of the use of filters in a certain Death Note AMV. Don't get me wrong, I don't dislike having my friends tell me half-interestedly that "that character's cool", and I deeply enjoyed the one session with my musician friend who brought over her record player and collection of vinyl records so we could listen to different versions of the songs in Nodame Cantabile and compare and explain why Nodame and Chiaki play the piano brilliantly even to a thoroughly trained ear. But I get a particularly warm and fuzzy feeling from hearing "I like this shot," or "I would have shot this differently," that I never get from anything else.

• I want the Tumbler from Batman Begins and The Dark Knight...and my very own Battlecat, a giant green tiger that can talk.

• My wish is simple and maybe a little bit stupid: I wish I could re-experience one nerdy little moment from when I was ten years old. This moment was when I stepped into Toys R Us in 1980 and first saw the action figure for Han Solo in his Hoth outfit. I knew there was going to be a sequel to my favorite movie of all time, but the first wave of Empire Strikes Back figures from Kenner were a surprise to me. I bought other figures that day, Luke in his Bespin fatigues and FX-7, but Han in that blue parka was the one I cherished (right up until my four-year-old son popped its head from its shoulders).

• I would make any and all people involved with the major decisions regarding movies based on nerdy subject matters (comic books, video games, toys, etc) have a dildo appear in their ass that is unremovable the second the make a retarded decision. For every stupid mistake they make the dildo will increase in size. If they make a retarded movie, the dildo will explode. If they make a successful and critically acclaimed movie, it will be removed and they'll be rewarded with something or other.

• I wish I could take credit for this, but it comes from Dinosaur Comics. The ultimate nerd wish is for everything to be possible as long as it is awesome enough. It doesn't matter if it defies logic, common sense, or the laws of physics. Why is this the ultimate nerdy wish? Because every genre of nerd culture (barring "hard Sci-Fi" which gets a hardon for being as scientifically accurate as possible) is all about imagining absolutely awesome, yet impossible, stuff, then running with it as if it were true. A few things that would now be possible: Giant Robots/Insects/Giants: Screw the square-cube law. Who cares that an ant big enough to ride like a horse would be crushed under its own weight/suffocate, or that the mechanics required to move a 100ft tall robot would be so heavy and bulky that the robot is comically slow and clumsy. And horses and gundams are now possible because they are <em>awesome</em>. Lightsabers violate the laws of physics in more ways than it's possible to count (too-small power supply, light doing a 180 at an arbitrary point in space, being incredibly bright yet also energy-efficient). Who cares? They're AWESOME, which trumps the laws of physics. Faster-than-light travel is now possible, for the same reasons. Additionally: aliens exist, and the majority of them can interact with humans and aren't things like sentient growths of crystal. Any lost limb or organ now has a cybernetic replacement that not only replicates the lost body part's original function, but also gives you a super power related to what you lost (strangely enough, if a limb/organ is purposely lost either no super power is gained or the power comes at a terrible, yet ironic, cost). The artificial appendix is oddly useless. Industrial accidents now often grant super powers, rather than sterility, cancer, and death. With a lifetime of training Bruce Lee was able to move so fast his films had to be slowed down so people would believe he was actually doing what he was doing. Now, with enough training you will be able to leap 30 feet in the air, fall to the ground gently as a feather, scale sheer walls like a gecko, dodge someone's sword thrust by jumping onto the sword and standing there while the attacker looks dumbfounded (instead of the sword being wrenched out of his/her hand or your foot being cut, use two fingers to perfectly cut through a tree, punch someone so hard they fly 10 feet back, and survive a punch so hard it throws you 10 feet back. Being shot by a gun will now actually send someing flying in the air, despite the fact that conservation of momentum would require that the person who fired said gun should also fly backwards. THERE IS SOUND IS SPACE. Your ability to survive wounds will be directly proportional to the nobility of your actions. A rogue cop trying to save his family will survive a shotgun blast to the head, a child rapist will explode into a pile of gore if he accidentally nicks himself shaving. Steampunk is real: It turns out that brass, wood, crystals, and steam are incredibly efficient power sources for things like jetpacks, and artificial intelligence is only possible using gear and rod based computers (yes, I stole this from Real Life comics, but I think that's further proof this is the ultimate nerd wish). Additionally: steampunk items are most effective while wearing a top hat, fedora, gloves and/or goggles, or speaking with a british accent. Computer systems and/or robots can accidentally become sentient, but only to help solve a science problem and/or teach a nerd how to find love. Magic is real. <a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_ekugPKqFw'>Some guy yelling "lightning bolt" and throwing bean bags = lame</a>. Actually being able to shoot lightning from your fingertips = awesome. There is an alien race who, if they come to Earth, will gain super powers. Corrolary: there is a planet upon which, if traveled to, will grant humans super powers. TV shows like Firefly don't get cancelled and are instead allowed to run their creative lifespans, yet end before becoming artistically bankrupt lurching zombies. Even the most intellectually bankrupt movies still maintain minimum standards of plot and characterization. Corrolary: despite the fact that everything awesome you can think of is possible, great works of art and creatitivy still exist, and even thrive. Finally: despite the fact that this wish COULD result in the destruction of the earth by armies of giant-steampunk-powered-cybernetic-alien-wuxia-ninjas shooting lightning bolts while weilding lightsabers it does not, because that would not be awesome.

• I wish Jurassic Park was real.

• To have all the hottest video game woman in my place wanting love all the time! Ah the hell with it,the millenium falcon, my wife would kill me if i had anyone but her at the house,lol

• &#64;Zyre Why human? I know I wouldn't give up the possibility of alien [Insert strange nerdy euphemism for vagina here: examples include "Star"gate, where the star stands for penis; love portal; & "spacegina"]. It would have to be a humanOID, I have to agree on that. Boning a strange alien ferret-like woman would be odd.

• Honestly? my one wish? That is in Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer they made Galactus the way he is suppose to be. A fucking purple giant. Galactus isn't some fucking blueish grayish cloud of fucking dust. He is Galactus the freaking lord of destruction, not some pussy ass cloud of dust. thats my only wish, that they did justice on Galactus

• I wish I could be intimate with a female. A human preferably.

• More than 100 comments in, and the best is still the post near the top by OM. Epic comment! My nerdiest wish isn't really nerdy, but f$%# it, I'm just gonna say it anyway. I wish I had the power to alter the lives of famous celebrities. Not to influence their power or friendship with me, but to actively protect them from harm. I've always wondered how certain people's lives would turn out if they weren't affected by tragedy. With this wish, I would be able to change the course of their lives. (Of course, that's basically saying I would want to play God.) Imagine being able to go back in the 70's and warning Michael Jackson about his near-fatal accident on the set of the Pepsi commercial, or the vitiligo skin condition? Being able to stop Buddy Holly from getting on the plane that would ultimately crash, ending his life? Telling Princess Diana and Dodi Fayed NOT to get in the car that would ultimate crash in an underpass? Stopping Mark David Chapman from killing John Lennon in cold blood? Telling Kurt Cobain that suicide isn't the answer? The possibilities are endless.

• I see a lot of sexual wishes... I see a lot of wishes for fictional technology or the reviving of long dead series... But my wish will come true, and I will take the future in my own hands to make it so. One day, I will stand on the same stage as Eiichiro Oda (creator of One Piece) and Yasuhiro Nightow (Trigun and Gungrave) and have my series compared to theirs, even if it is still called inferior... Simply to stand by those men and not be laughed off the stage... to be called 'equal' by those lords of graphic art... I will have this wish, I vow this, Topless Robot. Genies be cursed and devils be damned, I need not sell my soul... one day, this wish will be mine, even if I have to change the world with my own two hands.

• i wish i had the Millennium Falcon with a crew of Optimus Prime, bossk, Madmartigan, and randy marsh. adventures ensue.

• my wish is very simple yet uber nerdy. i just want to hang out with optimus prime. the real optimus prime, as portrayed in the 80s cartoon series--the most badass goodguy ever. after watching the abominable revenge of the fallen, i revisited Transformers: The Movie, and season one of The Transformers. Prime's balance between balls and social awareness is nothing short of genius. i wish he was my dad.

• I wish for my own P.E.T, Along with a custom Net Navi. Now, for this to be truly fun, P.E.T'S would need to be a common thing, like cell phones. The NET would have to be constructed in the way it is in Mega Man Battle Network. Viruses would have to be constructed to battle. Also, roller Blades would be aloud in any building, in any situation, even in when transferred yourself into the internet!

• I would want to be a shapeshifter. Not just because that'd be cool, and I could fight crime, but because it'd be a lot easier to cosplay. Seriously, hair not long enough? There, now it is. Need to be in better shape? Booyah, no gym fees or anything. Girlfriend has a crush on Leon from Resident Evil? She'll be all over me. See someone you don't want to talk to? They'll never recognize you while you're Batman! Or, you know, some random guy they wouldn't recognize . . .

• I wish for WMG to lose hold of all there copyrights (no more muted videos on youtube everyone =D)

• I wish I could wear some cheesy generic superhero costume on Takeshi's Castle and be interviewed by Junji Inagawa (Guy LeDouche).

• My one nerdiest wish is that Douglas Adams' trainer at the gym he worked out at knew CPR. Adam's had suffered a massive heart attack while on a treadmill. The trainer did not know CPR, and so Adams died shortly thereafter. Adams was eventually going to write another book in the Hitchhiker's Guide series, having felt bad that in "Mostly Harmless" he (SPOILER ALERT) killed all the main characters, blew up Earth, and destroyed all alternate dimension Earths (This was all in the last chapter) to the consternation of rabid fans who have fond memories of the Hitchhiker's series and its charactersseries. Having another author continue the series is no counselation, and is like taking a watery shit on Douglas Adam's grave.

• I wish some uber-rich guy would secretly genetically engineer a giant squid with graphic imagery of a hostile alien world implanted in its' brain that would then be imperfectly teleported into an enormous urban center that would be killed upon arrival releasing a psionic shockwave that would give psychics and sensitives nightmares for miles around. Such a thing would force humanity to put aside its' petty bickering and unite against a perceived common foe from another dimension. Really, we could use it. Science would advance, the world would know unified peace, and all those fucking annoying psychics and sensitives would poop themselves.

• I wish that Ideon: Be Invoked would finally get a U.S release so I could watch It and be depressed.

• I wish that I could make Anubis from Zone of the Enders and Black Getter from Getter Robo fight to the death and then use the winning robot to take over the world.

• I wish that people would have worked out the DVD licensing rights when they were making TV shows made before 2000. Think about it... we could have honest-to-goodness Season Releases of MST3K, Daria would be on DVD, The State would be on DVD with it's original music. We could even have the 1966 Batman TV show on DVD now... Le sigh.

• I wish i didnt spend 400 dollars on every single season of charmed before they came out with a 200 dollar complete set shaped like the book of shadows full of pages of demons and spells from the show.
