Hollywood Paging Dr. Pangloss

[jamesq]

Lets pretend for a moment that this is a perfect world, but only in so far as movies and television are concerned. You know what I mean, a universe where Firefly is still on the air.

So what would be in your perfect Hollywood? Here are some examples from the "nearly happened" files:

1. Will Smith was Neo in "The Matrix" (instead of being in "Wild Wild West").
   
2. Billy Wilder really did make "A Night at the United Nations" with the Marx Brothers.
   
3. River Phoenix still alive and making awesome movies.
   
4. David Fincher living a quiet but happy life somewhere far removed from cameras of all kinds.

Any other suggestions?

--- Afterthoughts ---

5. Kevin Smith listens to his cinematographer.
   
6. Christopher Moore's books were actually made into movies, instead of just being optioned.
   
7. Live action version of "The Castle of Cagliostro"!
   
8. "Action" went on for a full season.
   
9. "Twin Peaks" went for one season, instead of a season and a half.

Or how about if the Brocolli's let more avant garde directors take on James Bond? I'd be first in line for a Bond flick that was directed by Quentin Tarentino, or Curtis Hanson, or Darren Aronofsky...
