Are there any fantasy books/movies/video games that center around dwarves?

Dwarves are always secondary in fantasy oriented entertainment. Even Tolkien never managed to finish the dwarven language. That kind of gets to me, because dwarves are probably my favorite subject in fantasy. But they’re always reduced to secondary issues, and often become comedic value. I can’t think of a single movie, book or video game that has dwarves as stars, besides The Hobbit.
I love Tolkien, but since he pretty much seems to have paved the basics for fantasy, everything else also always has great dwarven halls/homes destroyed centuries ago, so you never get to see dwarves in their splendor.

There must exist a book, movie or video game that centers around dwarves? Or any other form of entertainment. Minus Dungeons&Dragons or other table top rpg. I’m not very interested in that.
