What is the Movie Albert Brooks secretly longs to make?


I have been wondering for a while, What is the Movie Albert Brooks secretly longs to make? or has he already plucked the forbidden fruit of his boundless imagination?

Thanks Mr Brooks, you have added immeasurable humor and insight to my life.

I can't imagine what he'd attempt next, having done everything from chucking it all, to the Afterlife, but it'll be a longshot whatever it is. He was always a Woody Allen-esque storyteller (better so, in my opinion) and his films had a specialized audience. I mean, it's been 11 years since his last original story (that Muslim thing he did, he was playing himself) and considering that his films never did well, anyway, getting a greenlight will be tough. Brooks' films were like the elegant, fine dining of cinema; today's crop is junk food leftovers. I could possibly see him doing something regarding the social networking craze, but aside from that, not sure.
