While watching Lord of the Rings tonight, my brother and I decided that the world would be a better place if it included more of the following things:

• jet packs
• explosions
• dragons
• pirates
• ninjas
• laser guns
• lightsabers
• musical numbers (particularly epic soundtracks)
• walking sticks
• cartoon sound effects
• superpowers
• balrogs in a zoo
• treehouses
• teleporters
• tree villages
• invisibility cloaks
• giant statues
• animatronics (particularly dancing skeletons)
• cape swooshes

Have anything to add to the list? We're just getting started.
