Which Superpower Would You Want?

I was bored earlier and ended up on this video on TVGuide's website from ComicCon. In it celebrities answer which super powers they would want to have if they could develop super abilities.

So, which power would you want?

(Also there are some funny answers in the video).
 
Super strength and resistance to damage. Bullet proof, basically. Not Superman level, but those.
 
Regeneration. It'd be nice to not have to worry about getting hurt. Alternatively, some form of psyonics; full telekinesis, maybe.
 
Super speed, cause I could do criminal acts and probably get away with it. I'd run to a city on the other side of the country, rob a bank and then come back and finish up my shift at work. All my co-workers saw me all day, how could I possibly have robbed a bank 3000 miles away?

Or I'd want to be the Master of Magnetism. Magneto makes being evil look so fun.

I would definitely use my powers for evil though, that I know for sure. Well, not really evil, but I'd definitely use them to better my own lifestyle which I'm sure would rub some authorities the wrong way.
 
I'd want Peter's power, then hang around all of you and take your powers. Be glad I didn't pick Sylar's powers. :devil:

If I could fly, I'd always want invisibility because someone's bound to see me take off or land, and in this day someone is likely to record it.
 
Maybe this is the little boy geek in me, but I've thought having webbing and spider-sense would be awesome.
 
Flight.

All the ones people like - superstrength, mind reading, controlling others' wills, time travel - start to rack up the problems when you really think about it. Invisibility would be lame since you can only use it to spy on people, which I don't care about, and stealing, which I don't need to do since I'm perfectly capable of making money honestly.

Teleportation and walking through walls would be freaky. The last one I'd want is regeneration power because imagine the nightmare scenarios - what if you get trapped in a tub of water with no way out? Do you drown and revive in an infinite loop? Even the remote possibility of that would be enough to deter me from that particular power.

But flying would be fun!
 
The Scarlet Witch's power - influencing probability. That strikes me as the best one to have in almost all circumstances as it can stand in for most of the others.
 
Dark Willow had a pretty cool selection, but if I had to have just one I would probably want some form of telekinesis.
 
The power of shapeshifting. That would be cool, I could walk into a bank as the Bank President and walk away with a shit ton of money and they would pin it on the real guy, yes I would abuse it.

Or I would take a job in Hollywood playing re-cast parts for stuck up actors who don't want to de sequals.

Either way, pure evil.

And someday, while wearing a really ugly visage to carry out a crime or something, your face gets stuck that way. :D
 
"Or I'd want to be the Master of Magnetism. Magneto makes being evil look so fun."

Exactly. I'd want his powers and full mastery of them. I'd be an anti-hero, righting wrongs as I perceived them, diplomacy be darned.
 
Flight. Or telekinesis, so long as the power included the ability to move myself, and therefore included flight. Teleportation would be handy, but strikes me as rather anti-climactic compared to the elation of being able to fly where you wanted to go. Still, it might be handy on a rainy day. :techman:
 
flight, but with a protective forcefield to allow me to resist being hurt by inertia/wind-speed. and also so i don't have to worry about swallowing bugs and shit.
