That would be really awesome. I would love a Nordic themed set based on Norse mythology, with vikings and snow lands and Norse gods and stuff. They'll probably do it eventually(hopefully sooner rather than later).

As tempting as it is to vote for Kamigawa, Lorwyn/Shadowmoor is the one I'd really want to see. And Zendikar, but I think that's bound to happen anyway.
And Ravnica? NEVER EVER AGAIN!

Kamigawa. It's a great plane that's full of flavor and it just got screwed over by terrible mechanics. Wizards needs to go back and get it right and do the plane justice.
I voted for Zendikar, because I would like to see a few more sets focused on lands. I would especially like to see a limited format that focuses on land based mechanics instead of being stupidly fast and all about aggro. Plus, I want to see more Eldrazi!
A return to Kamigawa would be fine as long as they do it right this time. And considering Innistrad and Theros, there is a high chance that they would get a top-down, flavor-filled block about Japanese culture and mythology right this time around.
Huh? Why is that? I think the plane is pretty much covered by now and there is probably no need to return to it (at least not in a loooong time), but the two blocks were pretty great.

Don't forget, Lorwyn and Shadowmoor were based on Celtic Mythology

Unlike Kamigawa, Innistrad and Theros, Lorwyn/Shadowmoor was not a top-down block at its heart. It was a tribal/hybrid block that had a strong theme of celtic mythology which was chosen after deciding on the relevant creature types for its tribal component.
I chose Innistrad. I know it was really recent but I love that block and setting and I can't wait for the return of werewolves with a possible werewolf planeswalker. I don't think it's likely for a while so for second choice I'd definitely pick Zendikar, I also love that setting and block.
Kamigawa gets my vote. It was a great setting that just had unlucky circumstances (power-level trough after the craziness of original Mirrodin block) and a less-experienced-at-making-flavour-blocks Wizards. I'm convinced that a new take on the Kamigawa block could be great.

Wizards might do another Asian theme block in the near future. "Warlords of Kahnar" and "Khans of Tarkir" sound very Genghis Khan-ish.
I'm sort of surprised that I don't see people saying Ulgrotha much anymore. Although it'll likely never happen, it would be nice to see the flavor of the plane be better represented than the Homelands set. After that for me, it'd probably be Kamigawa for similar reasons.
When I first started magic it was around the tempest/stronghold/exodus block, so it would be exciting to revisit dominaria.

712.5b The controller of another player can't make choices or decisions for that player that aren't called for by the rules or by any objects. The controller also can't make any choices or decisions for the player that would be called for by the tournament rules.
Example: The player who's being controlled still chooses whether he or she leaves to visit the restroom, trades a card to someone else, agrees to an intentional draw, or calls a judge about an error or infraction.
Rabiah (The plane Arabian Nights was on is named Rabiah) maybe? Im not an expert on Arabian mythology, but maybe a return to Rabiah based on said mythologies like how Theros is?
Other then that, though, I could probably get into any crazy idea for magic's future.

A collector of Magic Cards. (As in, I collect Magic cards for fun, I don't care how much any of my cards are worth)
I don't know about everyone but I am getting tired of going to so many new planes. How about we just continually revisit planes with 1 out of every few or so. For instance:
Dominaria
Ravnica
Mirrodin
Alara
Zendikar
Innistrad
maybe Tarkir
Stick with this rotation. And you can add a new plane every now and then. With so many worlds and considering that it is possible to have so many sets on one plane (see Magic sets on Dominaria), we don't need a continuous stream of new planes.
I voted Innistrad because it was my favorite set for art and flavor. Sad to see it's not higher up. That being said I'd also like to revisit Kamigawa, which was before I started playing but I like the flavor from the few cards I've used in EDH from that set.

I think that would be really fun to see
Also, Ice Age block or Arabian Nights plane.

Also, full art lands. Maybe 'Return to Zendikar' will finally see a new print run on those.
