Modern stories that could stand the test of time? There are three that come to mind for me.
The first one is Five Nights at Freddy's. Say what you want about the games, but the story behind the jumpscares is one of the best, and one that isn't just given to you. It's the kind of story that gives you all the pieces, and you have to figure it out on your own.
The second that comes to mind is Over the Garden Wall, which only had 10 parts, and that's it. From part one you think you know what's going on, and by part ten it leaves you with more questions than answers, as well as a story that will probably be debated until the end of time.
The third that comes to mind is Avatar: The Last Airbender (the series, not the cock-up. I own the whole series and honestly can't get enough of it. It tells an engaging story that leaves you wanting more with each episode. Not to mention the character development is smooth, bending is easily one of the coolest super powers ever, and it goes through the motions of what it means to grow up.
Personally I wish stories like 9 (Shane Acker, Donnie Darko, Parasyte, and Warriors (Erin Hunter) would stand the test of time, but unfortunately, it doesn't seem like they really will. Likely because they weren't so over-hyped on release. People will continue to talk about Frozen and Guardians of the Galaxy, while stories like Gone Girl and Interstellar become much more of a cult following. People might still talk about them, but not quite as much as those movies that just weren't quite advertised enough.

It is really hard to say out of all the things we have now, what will stand the test of time. For one reason, it's really hard to find original stories without big companies revising old properties. It's sort of like this generation of entertainment has some sort of -identity crisis-. However, I agree with everything you said. (Nintendo, Star Wars, Comic Books, Disney) will definitely live on for many years. Although, I could see the Harry Potter series standing the test of time, the only thing that makes me second guess this is the possibility of how advance are science becomes. You could also say this about Star Trek, but Star Trek basically inspired us to create the current tech of today. Plus, it isn't a product of its time like The TMNT or maybe Sonic, but those properties are still going strong, so who knows?
To be honest, it is really hard to say what will stand the test of time a century from now. For one thing, even though this is sort of obvious, I believe the internet will definitely stand the test of time. It will only get larger within the coming decades.

Something tells me you'd be like Woody Allen in Sleeper if you found yourself woke up in the distant future having to explain our times lol. To your point about what stories from today will be remembered, I could see some of the works of Stephen King getting there, especially since so many talented filmmakers have adapted his novels. I would also think That Stanley Kubrick in particular will stand the test of time with ease. That's just local fare though; if we go international then I'd include the works of Akira Kurosawa and the recent Vengeance trilogy out of South Korea. And finally, I loved your little back and forth with the guy off-camera; it was hilarious.

Most durable story of our time? The Great Mouse Detective. The key to making something timeless is to set it in the past, so that the -present day- doesn't slowly age away. The other key is 2D animation, which is always timeless. Yeah, you know the old Mickey Mouse reels were made in the '30s, but it's harder to pin down the years that Disney's 2D feature films were released if you don't already know them.
Also, Disney? -Cast some voice actors in your movies. Save money. No kid on Planet Earth is going to care if The Rock or Idina Menzel is voicing a character. Have some more God-damned faith in your movies. -

I've been putting on a live, bi-weekly production in my basement of the great American classic -The Brave Little Toaster-. It stars myself and a collection of household appliances. Once my recent investment in Napster starts paying dividends, I'll be able to record and distribute it. You'll like the new ending I wrote. There's a surprise visit from my girlfriend followed by my proclamation -My art always trumps your bagel needs! -

For me honestly it would have to be Spider-Man not only because I'm a fan, but to me Peter Parker relates to a lot of people whether they were made fun of or what ever it may be. Now I have a question for you angry nerd, what Disney classic would you like to see go live action? In my opinion it should stay animated and I'm at that point where I'm getting irritated with the whole live action remake but that's just me

weeeeeell. I actually think that miyamoto is gonna squeeze everything he can out of his franchises with such classics like-Legend of Zelda: Hyrule warrior- and -Super mario sluggers- so much so that that when all of the nostalgic 90's kids die everyone else will have lost interest. although, I do believe he will always be thanked and loved for all he has given to the industry.

I think titanic has a good chance of being great a while from now, based on the fact that it's based on a horribly tragic event and involves Leonardo DiCaprio with something closely parodying Romeo and Juliet, a story that has made it past centuries to be talked about today. other than that, the dark knight trilogy is excellent enough for people to like centuries from now.

I know this is coming from a horror nerd's perspective but A Nightmare On Elm Street and Freddy will probably outlive me and my kids. Michael Myers Halloween too, as his strong link to Halloween assures perennial favor. Jason too but of the three modern horror icons, he's the one I could see fading into obscurity with time (and a lack of memorable reboots.

Most durable, or longest in favor? Firefly, Star Trek, or Star Wars(depending on how the new movie or movies go) would probably last in favor of our people for generations, but I have no idea what could remain in common knowledge for centuries, as or culture expands at an ever increasing rate.
