Not really, since it was supposed to be a major part of the setting of the movie, (as well as a fairly clever backhand of the nature of television... although, the entire thing was pretty much one big backhand of the nature of television.)

I present to you-
Spoiler for just being plain weird.:
- The Kaioshin Show.
Now wait. Wait! I feel that there is actually a lot of potential in writing such a parody of "The Truman Show". To summarise the plot in two sentences,
We could include things like how the National Anthem/Dance is "Hare Hare Yuki", or how each time Kaioshin gets too close to the truth, a Taiyaki-munching girl will slam into him crying out, "Uguu~!" before dragging him away to another spot.
The moon will remain the base of operations, and Haruhi will reside in there wielding her Godlike powers, while Itsuki will be Kaioshin's neighbour and "best friend".
Kyon can be the disillusioned (and not-so-deceased) father, while his wife can be any one of the various KyoAni-girls (no Konata though, since we are establishing a world of moe, not otakus).
The possibilities are endless.
Cheers.

Scary.....
Edit: On a different note, do people realize that when they get so worked up over what are essentially minor things that they're alienating the people around them, so when they do actually make worthwhile comments, no one's willing to take them seriously or consider them as carefully?
