Interesting in that, for the most part, the TTRPG community has been different than the culture at large ... and certainly not populist nor anti-intellectual.
We have met the enemy and he is us.
It seems like the sense that there's a mini culture war between film critics and nerd culture isn't going anywhere. Definitely a bummer for lots of reasons, but now that nerd culture is the dominant strain in all pop culture there are a lot of opportunities for us nerds to be aggrieved. And again, when nerd culture properties get critical acclaim, apparently that doesn't factor in. But when the critics come for Snyder? Let's kick some ass in super slo mo!
I also kind of love it, though. Very exciting to see people beclown themselves talking about Scorsese only doing gangster movies.
