Why must fantasy movies and TV series always be about pre gunpowder era?

A fantasy world with like 1800's technology + orcs and elves could make a great setting.
>>
so, basically Arcanum?

Also, there's a movie called Bright coming out with Will Smith as a cop in a modern day world with elves and orcs. His partner is an orc or something I think.
>>
Because everyone just wants to copy LOTR

Sounds like a Shadowrun movie. Could be good.

It would be better with 17th century tech desu
>>
because thats when real chivalry ended. Nobody fantasizes being a hero holding a gun because even the sweatiest nerd can shoot a skilled knight dead. No heroism in that.

Elves are not compatible with technology.

elves in warhammer are just aliums, they don't come from earth

you can't make up a whole new race that is completely different from elves and give them pointy ears and call them elves, why not consider them vulcans since they have more in common?
