I kinda feel like the Lethal Weapon series would have been much better if Riggs died at the end of 2. I get the feeling that's what there were going for originally but decided to chicken out at the last minute or something.

Give Big O and Firefly the seasons they deserve.

Cut out all the stuttering in DBZ, and all the stupid filler arcs from One Piece.

End Dexter a season earlier where
Hannah doesn't poison Deb's water, have it turn out Deb did it herself to get Dexter to turn Hannah in. Then Dexter kills Debra because of it and Leguarta catches him in the act, and having him die from lethal injection.

And Pete Postlethwaithe. Best character in the film, ROLAND TEMBO.
**youtube snip!!**
Oh yeah, forgot about him. Also the only good part of the movie Dragonheart. Too bad he died in 2011. Such a great actor. The Usual Suspects even tho it was a bit part.

Big O - FINISH IT!

Blackadder - This show was very good, but even the cast and crew admit that the first season wasn't done very well, to make Edmund an idiot sycophant and so on. I say give the whole cast of the first season a chance to do-over.

Doctor Who - SAVE the fucking films that you guys burned in the early days of the show!

Durarara! - Izaya needs more comeuppance. He gets a little, but he's a power-playing dick.

Sherlock - FINISH IT!

Game of Thrones - FINISH THE BOOKS, THEN FINISH IT!

Firefly - F- Have it picked up by someone who isn't FOX. (Same with Dollhouse.)

Robotech - CONTINUE IT!

I'd get the Harry Potter universe and put in a lesbian sub plot with Hermione and Ginny. I may have gotten this idea from fan fiction.

Hey now, I liked most of the first season episodes. How can you hate BRIAN BLESSED? I also enjoyed how the series subtly made Baldrick stupider as Edmund became smarter. Baldrick is a scheming little bastard in the first season, a snarky halfwit in the second season, before going dumb in the third, to being a half gorilla man masquarading as a soldier in the fourth.

Change Jurassic Park 2 to have raptors with feathers.
You mean you wouldn't change the whole "Lets rip off King Kong but put it in San Diego" scenes? Or have it follow the book a little more about the island being the "dirty little secret" of InGen? Thats what I would change, also de-fuse the little girl character back into the 2 kids from the book because it just took away from the plot. The whole movie aside from Jeff Goldblum and Julianne Moore was crap.

Edit: the bolded name of the city in which the movie goes stupid. I forgot it was SD not LA, because I haven't watched it in so damn long.
I'm in a minority here, I know, but I really like JP 2.

I loved the original Jurassic park as a kid, but even then I never thought it was as 'deep' as people like to claim. The way it handled the whole ethical issue of 'the responsibility of science' or whatever was silly.

JP2 is much more openly fantasy. The whole thing makes no sense to begin with (how on Earth did the dinosaurs even survive on the island and form a functioning ecosystem!?) and I just enjoy it as a fantasy-movie about a dinosaur-island with evil people trying to harm the dinosaurs and getting eaten.
The girl-character fit right in as did the T-rex rampage.

I have read the books (although not for years), and while they handle the serious issues better, I just like that movie to be abut a mystical island made with SCIENCE! that has dinos.

Lost (the first 2 seasons anyway) - MICHAEL AND WALT DIE IN THE PLANE CRASH. Either that, or they're replaced by characters that aren't irritating.

That's an interesting suggestion. I'd be more interested in Hermione and Luna, but it would be enjoyable to read anyway.

Back on topic, I would have made it so that the second arc of Sword Art Online was never animated. It wasn't terrible, but after finding the first arc as strangely compelling as I did, it just felt dull and pointless.

Other than that, replace any episodes of A Certain Magical Index with more episodes of Scientific Railgun. Enjoyed the latter much more than I did the former.

Luna does seem like the type to explore. Yeah, I can see that.

Princess Mononoke: I may sound like a juvenile gorehound, but I think that film would improve if the violence was more bloody and gory. It would strengthen its impact immensely.

The Vision of Escaflowne: Make it 39 episodes long as it was originally intended. Expand on Dilandau's backstory. Have the war last more than a single episode. Show us more of Folken's alliance with Zaibach. Awesome

Let me rephrase on the point of Blackadder. I liked the first season too, and I wouldn't change a single cast member. More to the point, BRIAN BLESSED is awesome. HOWEVER, my point referred to a behind-the-scenes thing where it was revealed that the people making it actually felt that this was the wrong formula and had to stay the course regardless. I love these guys, so I give them the Q-based do-over card to see what they can make of it. Blackadder the First: Directors Cut. Fair?

Some very funny suggestions in here.

Attack on Titan - Less padding. If it feels too much and you haven't read the manga, then you will be shocked to learn just how much there is. If they took it out there would be almost enough space to catch up with the manga entirely.

Game of Thrones - Put in the character building scenes that were cut out. Take out the titilation that was needlessly added. It already has a bunch of sex in it, there isn't need to make up more of it.

Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex - Change Motoko's outfit from season one to what she wore in the second season. The leotard with a jacket just looks odd.

Firefly: Kaylee comes from a planet where they dont wear clothes, so she is always nude on the ship.

Blackadder: Have longer series, 6 episodes each was too few.

Death note: I agree with the stop after the first season mentioned earlier.

Sword Art Online: More exploration of the social and personal effects of being trapped in the game would have been nice. So basically screw the 2nd arc and just extend the first (Plus more Lizbeth is desirable).

Dollhouse: instead of Patton Oswalt being a nice guy who misses his wife and has Echo imprint her; he is a rich geek who is obsessed with "Buffy" and has Echo imprinted as Faith so when his business partner's mercs show up to kill him Faith dispatches them.

Star Trek: Enterprise: Do not turn into a 9/11 metaphor. It was A) too soon and B) a terrible job.

Lost/Battlestar Glactica/Alias: Don't get so buried by your mythology that you feel obligated to go insanely goofy at the end.

Firefly: More episodes, and more actual Chinese people in your largely-colonized-by-China solar system.

Avatar: Learn evolutionary biology and explain it to your art team. If every other species on a planet has six limbs, it's EXCEEDINGLY odd for just one species to have four limbs. George Lucas should probably take note of this one too. Actually, almost every sci-fi movie/t show creature design tem could have a go at that.

Really!?

That giant bleeding boar wasn't enough for you? There's even a moment where he throws up a swimming pools worth of blood.
