Why wouldn't you base games on older movies? The right demographics
There are plenty that sold well a long time after their introduction date. TBL is a bit different as not being what I would think of as mainstream....
Plenty of old themes (that were still kicking around at the time of the game introduction) - eg Bally and DE Star Trek, Superman, TSPP, AC DC, Doctor Who, Monopoly, Playboy x 3, The Incredible Hulk.
