I think you've got a point, Black Hawk Down-wise. There was a small, but prolific fandom when the film came out (actually, I still mod the fic comm on LJ for it, for all the fic that gets posted now), but it waned as people moved on. And it was always very Hoot/Eversmann/Blackburn/Grimes-centric, character-wise. Actor-wise, the same, mostly Eric/Orlando/Josh/Ewan. But I definitely think you're right that if the film had come out after GK, maybe the BHD fandom would have been bigger.

I just don't think anyone SAW Layer Cake or RockNRolla. No one ever talked about either film, and I was floored that there wasn't a comm for One Two/Handsome Bob fic, at least, because, well, it was canon. But, you never know which film or pairing or actor will finally tickle fandom's fancy. Much like last year with the rest of the world discovered Karl and Quinto, this year it's JGL and Tom's turn.

When LC came out, everyone I know saw it. RnR automatically has a viewership because of Guy Richie.

Neither were the Big Movie at the time, no. But that's what's happening with Inception, there's nothing else, it's summer, and so on. The same with Nutrek, it was the thing at the time. That's all.
