When is Star Wars going to get something invented from it?

Ok, so now they want a freaking tricorder...cmon...lightsaber already.

However, would be a seriously good idea. Hope they achieve this. Might stop some of the "21st century barbarism" (Insert McCoys voice).

Tricorders....what about an universal translator. Now, that would also be very handy to have!!!.

A Babel Fish ... Ford Prefect has one in his ear ... :D

[Max Vondel]

Tricorders and Babel Fish are not Star Wars related..........

A Death Star in orbit would give us something new to look at................

:P

[renormalised]

Yeah, down the barrel of a massive particle beam cannon!!!:):P

A lightsabre would be cool, though:)

A Millennium Falcon?
Hey maybe thats what dark matter is 'the force'.......Just putting it out there.

[renormalised]

The "Force" has nothing to do with dark matter. The Force is life itself...a living, conscious field of energy which permeates all of existence. That's the canon of the story.

Ive always thought an Xwing could fly.. using todays tech replace the engines with turbine engines and i think it would work well.

infact TO THE GARAGE!!!! shooommmmmm (if only)

If you knew how easy it was to produce a plasma drive, you'd laugh.
Mankind is not yet ready though. It would be turned to the dark side.
Be patient you must.mmm

please, hyperspace (yes i know they traveled by light speed in Star wars) would be the best option for humanity ... think about it ... first man (or women) in another star system, colonization of the galaxy.
