Five or six separate stories, that somehow weave themselves together to them all being in the same place, working together. That type of thing.

Using a bunch of different interconnected storylines, similar to Love Actually or Valentine's Day, of people around the world could show how everything is related. But like Jim, I fear that there's a very small chance of it being done in an innocent manner

"My only hope is that it's not snide, sarcastic or self-aware. I'm sure that's just impossible, but here's hoping." Now that could make it watchable.
