star-wars-episode-7-poster.jpg

This is the conceptual Star Wars Episode VII movie poster created by illustrator Adam Schickling imaging the cast from the original trilogy all grown up. It looks like Adam was pretty kind to Carrie Fisher, because that is NOT what I remember her looking like last. Chewbacca? He looks the same as the first day he and Han Solo ever met. Billy Dee Williams? That handsome devil makes me want to go chug an ice-cold Colt 45. WHICH I MIGHT.

Thanks to PYY, who agrees Colt 45 is actually pretty terrible but Billy Dee Williams makes it sound like the best damn drink on earth. That’s it, I’m biking to the beer store.

delorean-taxi-1.jpg

This is a conceptual time traveling DeLorean taxi. It’s not real though (context clue: conceptual), it’s just a marketing piece made by Mike Lubrano for Nooka, a “New York based fashion brand with a futuristic philosophy.” What exactly IS their futuristic philosophy? Sadly, probably not “RUN AND HIDE, THE ROBOTS ARE COMING!” like it should be. I did peruse their website though and they do sell a bunch of stuff that looks like a 1980′s vision of the future. Me? I’m more into a 2012 vision of the future. “Which is?” I’m glad you asked! *holding up picture* “That’s a picture of a burning planet with the caption ‘Earth, population: 0.’” Just keepin’ it real!

ipad-3-mockup.jpg

This is a video of a conceptualized iPad 3 from Aatma Studios. It has cool features like an edge-to-edge screen, magnetic sensors with near field communications (for attaching more than one unit together so they can interact) and a 3D holographic display for multiplayer games. The real iPad 3? It’s gonna have a sharper display, a faster processor, a nicer camera, possibly 4G connectivity, and SIRI assistant. Those sound more like iPad 2.5 improvements than iPad 3 ones to me, but what do I know? I’m not an industry professional. Or any kind of professional really. I went to a job interview a couple of weeks ago with ketchup all on my shirt. You know what I told the interviewer? It was blood. His, from the future — after I found out I didn’t get the job. Fingers crossed I hear back soon!

Hit the jump for the man, the real one is going to SUUUUUUUUCK compared to that.

breathing-iphone-charger.jpg

This is the conceptual AIRE mask. The idea is that you just strap it to your face and charge your iPhone simply by breathing. The Hannibal Lector look is just an added bonus! No word if breathing heavy like a f***ing creeper makes it charge any faster.

The AIRE mask is a concept that hails from the mind of Joao Paulo Lammoglia, where it will rely on the power of your breath, converting it to electricity thanks to tiny wind turbines. All you need to do is ensure the AIRE mask remains connected to an iOS-powered device, breathe as usual, and you are good to go.

You know what they need to invent? A phone that charges itself by talking and texting. Just kidding, I don’t care if that ever exists or not. Now jetpacks on the other hand — those things need to happen YESTERDAY. And speaking of things that happened yesterday… “You shit your pants on drive home from work again?” You can’t anticipate traffic!

Thanks to Ben, who charges his phone the old fashioned way: with knives taped to his head pretending to be a bull.

lightsaber-rolling-papers.jpg

This are some conceptual lightsaber rolling papers imagined by Geekologie Reader Matt H. I don’t know if you can tell by the rendering, but they aren’t real. They ARE clever though.

this is…a mock up ive made of star wars themed rolling papers that look like lightsabers. they arent real and its not professional quality but ive seen you post way shittier looking concepts before on this site. no one loves star wars more than stoners.

AHAHAHHAHAHAHA @ “ive seen you post way shittier looking concepts before”. You cut straight the bone, Matt! I’d get high to forget about it but I know I’d wind up over-analyzing my life and end up even more depressed. “So…?” So I’ll be at the bar if anyone needs me.

Thanks Matt, now go get these made behind George Lucas’ back because screw him.

lifebook-1.jpg

The Fujitsu Lifebook is a conceptual all-in-one mobile command center design by Prashant Chandra that features a laptop with integrated and removable smartphone, digital camera and tablet (which functions as the laptop’s keyboard when in its cradle). Why would anybody want that? I’m not sure anybody does.

The proposed Lifebook is a laptop computer concept based on the principle of “shared hardware”. Currently a lot of hardware is wasted when we use separate devices, as there is often a lot of “repeat” of data stored and features. For example if I have my songs on my music player, why do I have to block the same amount of storage on my laptop? Similarly, if I have a processor sitting in my tablet, why can it not also run/assist my laptop? If I have a fully functional camera with its own memory and image processing power, why do I need to have it repeated in my laptop?

Admittedly, the idea behind the concept isn’t a bad one, I just question its real-world functionality. “You question a lot of things.” Damn yeah I do — I’m no sheep! Baaaaaahhh. “You sound like a sheep to me.” Okay that was supposed to be a goat sound. Maaaaaaahh. “Still a sheep.” You know what — f*** it, I’m just gonna quit while I’m ahead. “You’ve never been ahead.” GOD — THEN I’M JUST GONNA QUIT, OKAY?

e-urinal-1.jpg

THe e-Urinal is a terribly named conceptual pisser by Royce Zhang that has sensors capable of measuring your body’s most important health acronyms like PH/SG/URO/BLO/WBC/PRO/GLI/BIL/KET. Granted I have no clue what any of those are, or if it’s even possible to measure them measure them that fast, I’m just a man who is like, waaaaaaaay into urinals. *waiting for diagnosis* “CRITICAL HEALTH WARNING: YOUR URINE IS 85% VOMIT.” Woopsie daisy! *peeing on floor*

Hit the jump for a couple more renderings of the urine luck and might not have to pee in a cup this time.

3d-finger-art.jpg

This is a hand with fake 3-D fingernail art Photoshopped on. Sure you could make the same thing IRL by gluing G.I. Joe weapons on your nails, but come on, it’s not really that awesome an idea to begin with. Regardless, Lady Gaga will still be sporting this shit for her New Years Eve concert, you can count your sweet tits on it. “I count two.” Count again, those are moobs. “So zero?” *winks*

Thanks to Ashley, who doesn’t glue anything to her nails except hair. You’re weird!

evian-star-wars.jpg

This is a series of conceptual Evian water bottles designed by Mandy Brencys to look like both Star Wars characters AND light sabers. Still, would you be willing to pay an extra $ 2 for a bottle of water that looks like a wookie-saber? Of course you would — look who I’m f***ing talking to.

Thanks to PYY, who may or may yes be a water fairy. “Woodland.” She’s a woodland fairy.

stiletto-implants-1.jpg

The day stiletto heel implants become reality is the day I’m slingshoting myself into the sun. And, knowing my luck, missing and winding up orbiting the solar system for all eternity. Remind me to pack cyanide capsules. Also: some really bright LEDs (I want children to be able to find me with a telescope).

Hit the jump for one more shot of the you’ll never run again.
