Anything from movies, tv shows, books, video games, or comic books. If you had the opportunity to live in or visit some fictional world, what are some of your choices? In addition, your life would follow the rules of that universe. For example, say you choose some Marvel comic book universe, then you could have superpowers.

Here are my top 10, not in order of importance:
1. the Harry Potter universe - it would be awesome to be a wizard
2. the Star Wars universe - be a Jedi, hell yeah
3. the Mass Effect universe - maybe just visit this one and live in the Star Wars one
4. Middle-Earth - be a kick-ass elf
5. Equestria - my fellow bronies, you guys know why
6. the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World universe - just seems like a fun place
7. the Marvel universe - I have a basic idea of what my superpowers would be, but besides that I could hang out with Spidey
8. Halloweentown - I would love to meet Jack Skellington
9. the Devil May Cry universe - a dangerous place, but a cool one
10. the Psychonauts universe - that place would be so fun

Awesome list, but it probably says a lot about me that I'm able to see the potential negatives for each situation. Like instead of being what I would want, I would just be a different version of myself in that world and probably more likely to get destroyed by something evil. Equestria is generally happier and more peaceful than most other worlds, but if I had my choice, it would be some place exactly like the real world, except that magic and psychic powers are totally real, and there is definitely an afterlife. Can't think of a fiction meeting that description currently.

1. Underland - AKA, Wonderland from Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland movie. I would love to spend my days having tea with the Mad Hatter,
but I would only stay on two conditions: 1) Alice comes to live there too and 2) The White Queen is the ruler.
2. Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory (Johnny Depp version) - Everything about it is cool, but the best parts (for me) would be the fact that I'd be surrounded by candy 24/7, and I'd get to hang out with Willy Wonka.
3. Equestria - It's so cheerful and happy there! It'd be awesome to be a My Little Pony. I'd want to live in Ponyville so I could hang with the Mane [sic] 6.

1. The universe I fantasize about everyday, and then I cry myself to sleep.
2. Dragon Candy: Parallel (It's on DeviantArt by LordDragonMaster)
3. TRON: Legacy (I will be a User and create anything I please. I would NEVER come out)
4. Halo (Be a super strong super soldier and beat the s**t out of anything that moves? Hell Yeah!)
5. Assassin's Creed (Join the Brotherhood and just simply look bad-ass at anything I do.)

I can't believe noone has chimed in with Star Trek. Or Xanth

Equestria could always use another scholar of the arcane.

I don't want to live in the Star Trek universe, but I'll take a runabout from that universe to explore this one with (unfortunately, the technology probably wouldn't work here... *clenches fists* damn you real laws of physics!).

I'd also like to live on Barsoom--Edgar Rice Burroughs' version of Mars. Spend my time killing freaky alien monsters with a giant sword and rescuing hot, naked Martian damsels in distress...

GoonSquad, Warlord of MARS! :alien:

Kingdom hearts, I have the desire to become an org 13 member/ keyblade master (so i can still feel emotions) so that I can lead an army of dusks against a legion of neo-shadows. That way, I can also go to all the disney worlds as well.

I want to be a crewman on Serenity.

Take me out to the Black
Tell them I ain't coming back

I'd love to live in Star Trek, if only for how cool the Holodeck could be.

And, of course, the Marvel Comics Universe (Spider-Man, X-Men, etc.), provided that I'd have superpowers.

Pern with the dragonriders ! I spent most of my youth living there in my imagination, it would be cool to go there in real life.
