@visakanv Met a guy carrying a cymbal case recently. Really confused me. My best guess was that he was carrying a one-wheel scooter. But no, he was going to band practice. https://t.co/e5QGhfjBjg

@visakanv Liam Neeson's walkie talkie from Phantom Menace was famously a women's Gillette razor. it's great imagining him having to take that seriously

@visakanv So many and it's funny when they keep reappearing. Firefly I think had many props looted from other shows. The absolute worst offender I remember was a plain Gameboy used as a high-tech prop by the kid in seaQuest

@visakanv I have some props from the Ghost In The Shell movie and a couple of them are just like this, iPad cases that were repainted and have a new logo on them. But a few are custom made
