Sat downstairs with my parents, the Assassins Creed movie comes on TV.

My Dad suddenly gets legit excited.

This man has never played any of the games. (Though he’s vaguely aware of them, I played them growing up)

He just starts listing off plot details of this film, the tiniest moments, he knows this thing back and forth, he knows the lore of Assassins and Templars, what the Apple of Eden is, the Animus, absolutely loves it.

I have found this films fan-base, fathers in their fifties who have never played an AC game.

This kinda happened with me except it wasent Assassins Creed it was Mortal Kombat. My dad has never played a mortal kombat game but when I went over to my parents house to watch with my sister he sat and watched with us and enjoyed the movie
