As with most people, I get my inspiration from a variety of sources, but I would say that movies are one the top sources of inspiration when I am getting ready to run a game or to get me inspired to run something. I’ll typically track down a movie or two that are set in that genre/setting to watch before running a game to help inspire me and often seeing a movie will inspire me to run something in that setting.
