Re: What causes a large fandom?

[intrigueing]

I think that's overly specific, but IA with the general idea. I think it's more "canons that deliver on <20% of the potential it initially sets up". Which could be simply a function of the particular story being told in that book/show/whatever, so not necessarily a letdown, or it could be what you said.

For example, Star Wars. Tells one story of a potential 284,384,096 other stories that could be done in that universe with those characters using any fraction of what happens in canon -- from nothing but setting to setting and backstory only to one movie to two movies to three movies -- to fuel your discussion/merchandise/pop-cultural osmosis/memes/costumes/art/fanfic/etc.

You're totally right!! It's not about "letting us down" so much as just leaving us hanging. "Us" often being people who get more excited about worldbuilding and relationships than can feasibly be satisfied by a single movie, book, or tv show produced for mass consumption.
I just stared at that sentence for a full minute, I hope it makes sense :\
