While we're in the zone of fulfilling my pop culture requests, I would like to put forward some additional items for consideration.

Item 9: A remake of You Can't Take It With You directed by Alejandro González Iñárritu
The film Birdman had its flaws (I would have appreciated a content warning about the attempted rape scene!), but one thing it did well was show that director Alejandro González Iñárritu would be able to direct farce. People in general aren't good at directing screwball anymore, so that was an exciting discovery!
You Can't Take It With You is just begging for a modern remake. I'm thinking along the lines of Awkwafina, Maria Bamford, Susan Blackwell, Ana de Armas, William Jackson Harper, Aasif Mandvi, Melissa McCarthy, Lee Pace, Maya Rudolph ...
Connections to previous Wreckage: I extolled the wonders of screwball comedy in a three part series.
Item 10: A new book from Kira Henehan
I loved Orion You Came and You Took All My Marbles (Rec. #195, QfFC #75). I would very much like another novel by Kira Henehan, please.
