I got the idea from this great article on The Onion's AV Club (http://www.avclub.com/articles/fun-fictional-worlds,29114/) and was kinda of curious to see what people could come up with. My bad if this has already been done.

Middle Earth, but only if I get to be a total badass, like Tom Bombadil.

I think I'd really enjoy living in Stormhold from Stardust. I love the fusion between Victorian-era England and airships, magic, and awesomeness.
I've also always really wanted to live in a zombie infested world, but definitely not one of the fast movie zombie ones (too intense!). So yeah, I'd go with the Romero Dawn of the Dead - I want to live in the mall with that foursome for a while. That would be rad.
This is a really sweet question.

Harry Potter for sure.
Hogwarts would be so badass

Is Candy Land an adequate answer?
Star Wars Expanded Universe.

I'm going to have to go with HP as well. Just because magic would be so convenient.

If i couldn't live in Coeur d'Coeurs then I'd want to live in New New York from Futurama.
I'm so torn between Star Wars (expanded), Harry Potter, and Futurama. I actually think Star Wars.

Oh shit, Futurama for sure. Fuck HP

Coeur d'Coeurs.
Shoot, I was going to say the Lost island but now I'm torn. There's no question Pie Hole >>>>>> Smokey and Nuclear weapons, but Coeur d'Coeurs seems to have a strangely high murder rate.
Eh, fuck it, I'll go with Lothlórien.
HP immediately came to mind

HP or Star Wars, but only if I have the badassery of powers that those worlds have. I can be a lazy bum right here just fine.

Why the fuck would any want to live in the futrama world? I'd go with Pokemon or the wasteland from the Fallout series.
Oh yeah, also the Neverending Story world.

First thing that came to mind was Metropolis, so I'll go with the DC Universe.
SanePsychotic
06/19/09, 08:15 AM
Wow, this is a good question. Star Wars, Harry Potter and Pokemon have all been mentioned, which would all be very entertaining. I think I'd also like to live in Gotham city and be Batman.
I'd also like to live in the cartoon worlds of Invader Zim or Rocket Power, because they just seem to have a lot of fun there.

The 5th Element.
I guess it's supposed to be our world in the future, but it's still a different universe than this one. Flying cars, going on a cruise to different planets, and instant chicken seem pretty awesome.

Alright, here's the deal - you get Coast City and a power ring, I get Keystone City and super speed. That makes me feel both brave and bold. I like it.

Pokemon, Star Wars, Hyrule, Harry Potter, or Dragon Ball Z.
I pick Star Wars, but I do love the idea of magic and pokemon.

why the FUCK would you ever want to live in the wasteland?
Cause it would be awesome to live in a post-apocalyptic world where you could do whatever you wanted to including shooting ghouls.

Yeah, whatever you wanted provided you're able to forage for food and water and shelter and stay alive in the middle of a bunch of creatures and people that want to spill your guts out on the desert sand. Great idea.

Probably Harry Potter.
Harry Potter but only after the 7th book.
Pussy.
I'd probably pick Harry Potter with Voldemort around. Not fun without him. Or something with zombies

Eh, fuck it, I'll go with Lothlórien.
That would be so legit, though my first thought was "Gondolin" when I read the topic. To not be ravaged by Balrogs would be okay with me.
Other options:
Hogarts
Pokemon
A gunslinger in Stephen King's Dark Tower series
An X-Men.
Andor
harry potter harry potter harry potter harry potter
harry potter.
Every fall I pray that my letter from Hogwarts is coming.
Pokemon, Star Wars, Hyrule, Harry Potter, or Dragon Ball Z.
I pick Star Wars, but I do love the idea of magic and pokemon.
Oh shit I didn't even think of this. This would be second to HP.

Either Pokemon or a Final Fantasy universe. VIII perhaps, or X.

Despite it being a real shithole universe, and the likelihood of my death being pretty good, I would love to live in the Battlestar Galactica universe.
Same goes for Buffy/Angel. That'd be fun. But dangerous.

That is probably on par with Coeur D'Coeurs for me. Such a stunning world/look to the game.

I'd love to be in the OC. I've always wanted to experience life like the Gilmore Girls too, in the quaint town of Stars Hollow. Living like Buffy would be cool also. Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere and Stardust - olden times would also be a nice thing. Basically, I'd love to live in any wonderful fictional world. Better than the real world. Haha.
