Well, I was a decade off with The Lord of the Rings (it was released in the 1950s) but my point still stands. Game makers were definitely not the 'cool kids' at the party in the early 2000s in Hollywood where I was living. Today it's video game developers who are crafting 100 year IPs and boy are those folks taking notice. https://lnkd.in/enPGS-8e
