Yeah, but I think the movie "How To Raise A Dragon" dropped dragons down a few notches of coolness for those over 11 years of age.

Wil Wheaton-Betty White buddy cop movie in space.
Or Jack Black and Jack White figuring out how man-birth babies just so we can have the discussion of "is the baby black or white" and have no referance to race.

An invisible hydrogen fueled jet propelled monkey navigated amphibian spaceship with unlimited reverse-photon beams... that can make women's clothes fall off.

That last part could be either the coolest thing ever or the scariest thing ever. I suppose it all depends on who's clothes are falling off and who's around to witness it.

Because it could make any and all of these things improbably pop into and out of reality at random intervals depending upon their unlikeliness.

Best so far:
Robotic Ninja Dinosaur Pirates with big freaking flame throwers.
Top that.
Sounds like you should be reading Axe Cop to your son. Maybe a little violent. But Wexter is right up his alley.

This is kind of like the game I play with my son: The Grossest Thing Ever. I won't list the current chart toppers.

My perspective on what constitutes "cooler" has been immutably altered by experiences like watching tank size leatherback turtles laying their eggs in the full moon light on a deserted beach.
If ten year old boys don't agree, let them try it and see.

I'd argue that the coolest thing ever is sex. Now, I'm aware that this wouldn't win an argument with a ten-year-old boy, nor should it be presented. But considering that boys tend to drop (or postpone) playing with Legos and tanks and barbecue bombs and bottle rockets for girls when they hit high school is pretty compelling evidence.

Too generic. See I could trump your "just sex" with specifics involving who, how, where, and with what major kitchen appliance, but this is a family forum so we'll skip that line of awesomeness.

But, see, it's the sex that adds coolness to the major kitchen appliance, not then other way around.
Caption reads "Anyone can add a chainsaw to make something awesome, but it takes a great man to add awesome to a chainsaw."
What's REALLY funny (speaking of sex making things more awesome, specifically) is that the full version of that picture looks like this (NSFW). Which leaves us with the interesting question: which is more awesome, Lightning Chainsaws or Lightning Chainsaws + Sexy Naked Demon chicks. (It is my opinion that the sexy naked demon chick actually distracts from the Lightning Chainsaw's awesomeness rather than complimenting it).

That was pretty awesome, but I think Mel Gibson's Maverick could beat Chow Yun Fat's God of Gamblers. Well he'd win in the long run, he'd get walked all over at first, but that's why he's so awesome.

No, no, all of you have forgotten to add "with a light saber" to your answers. Everyone knows that anything is cooler with a sword, and a lazer sword trumps all!

Although I confess that perhaps I could have added "Robot ninja dinasaur" TO the Lightning Chainsaw. I think that might have detracted from the Lightning Chainsaw rather than added to it though.

Yeah, the thing you really have to remember is that coolness has a diminishing return. Slapping a variety of awesome things together does not an awesome thing make. If you're combining things, you need to make sure they have synergy.
