I don’t know. If you told 1996 me that Spider-Man movies would be popular, I would’ve nodded.
If you’d told me that Iron Man movies would be popular, I would’ve been a little surprised.
If you’d told me Groot would become a household name, from a film series starring Star Lord, I would’ve laughed you out of the room.

The commercial success of movies with various Marvel comics characters of my 1970s youth has been the most surprising bit of Geek culture takeover that I can recall (although that tide has begun to ebb with overexposure).

Less surprising to me than Return of the King winning loads of Oscars and nearly universal popularity before fading out again


Did it fade out? I still see memes and stuff from it. And it still has a strong fanbase.

Here in New Zealand, Hobbiton is still going gangbusters, with massive lines of people waiting to get in each day. They just added petrified statues of the trolls in the past month, apparently. It's still a huge thing for many people, even though it came out before many college students were born at this point😬

I had a player who wanted to be able to upgrade his gadgets but didn't want to play a smart guy, we worked out that he had this brother genius with a millennial attitude (before 2000) basically sleeping, gaming and from time to time he would come up with some really hi-tech shit. All the players loved him, the characters not so much.
My team work system is made with stuff like this in mind. You can roll to team up with anyone, even over the phone, when it fails...

I tend to go as a lone wolf with my PC's, family-wise, but sometimes others have complicated family issues. Not really my thing. though, in my fantasy games.
