Filmsplosion 2004

A list of films. With zombies.

Ryan’s 150 Favorite Films: Number 81, My Favorite Wife (1940)

One of the most frequent questions I am always asked being the host of the greatest movie podcast ever (opinions may vary) is “What’s your favorite movie?” That answer has been the same since I was 11 years old. But it also isn’t as easy to explain why I love some...

Ep. 651: Killer Klown from Liminal Space

You better not shout, you better not cry when the Reel Nerds review Terrifier 3.

Ep. 650: Arthur’s Follies

The world is a stage when the Reel Nerds review Joker: Folie à Deux.

Ep. 649: Roz the Wild and Powerful

Sometimes, to survive, you must become more than you were programmed to be when the Reel Nerds review The Wild Robot.

As far as nerds go, there are not many reeler than Ryan. His love for movies is unmatched. He also loves comic books. When you combine comic books and movies Ryan is at his happiest. He enjoys all forms of pop culture and prides himself on knowing more then average nerds. Ryan has a couple of characters he prefers over the rest, first and foremost is Spider-Man. He also loves Ash from the Evil Dead. Ryan also enjoys Finishing people in Mortal Kombat and hopping on Goombas. He has attended Comic-Con and several Starfests with his good buddy Brad. He is amazed on how awesome Brad is at designing Reel Nerds pages. But don’t tell Brad. He needs to stay humbled.

Favorite movie: Army Of Darkness

Favorite Genres: Action, Horror, Comic Book, Comedy

Brad

Brad

Producer, Co-Host, Designer

His earliest memory of nerdiness is discovering the Star Trek motion pictures when his parents (presumably) accidentally rented the first one on laser disc. He attended his first convention at the age of 12 and has been to many Star Trek conventions since, as well as SDCC, NYCC, and E3 twice. He’s also an avid TMNT fan who has each of the first four issues of the original comic book signed by Eastman AND Laird. Brad also favors Batman and loves Nintendo so much he still plays his Virtual Boy from time-to-time. When he’s not immersed in nerd media, he’s out competing at bar trivia or working on several creative projects like podcasting, producing short films, publishing books, and drawing cartoons.

His favorite film of all-time is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie and with over 600 DVD’s and blu-rays in his collection, Brad is surely a Reel Nerd.

Zach

Zach

Co-Host

Zach Eastman is the weirdest and most annoying one on the Reel Nerds Podcast.  He’s been interested in film and filmmaking in one fashion or another since age 6 when he saw Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, and has never slowed down the movie watching train. He is an avid proponent for the theatrical experience and eerily obsessed with Hollywoods Golden Age, but loves Film History as whole on top of that.

The primary reason he has no friends is because he wont shut up about the above. His Favorite films include JACKIE BROWN, CASABLANCA, ZODIAC, JOHN CARPENTER’S HALLOWEEN, and TO BE OR NOT TO BE (1942). But honestly he loves too many films to count. He is also obsessed with Old Time Radio and will mention it faster than … well… a very fast thing. He also put The Nice Guys at only Number 7 on his 2016 Filmsplosion, and therefore, is just the worst.

Henry

Henry

Co-Host

Henry Jarvis is the youngest member of the Reel Nerds. His favorite films include Space Jam and Dude, Where’s My Car? and Lawrence of Arabia. He enjoys those pretentious art house films that Ryan hates. He sees a lot of movies! Honestly more than he should. He replaces his lack of social skills and meaningful friendships with his love of cinema! He’s also crying while he writes this biography for himself. His favorite directors are Andrei Tarkovsky, David Fincher, and David Lean.

James

James

Co-Host

James grew up in a house where Friday night was Movie night, which meant that he’d watched more movies than anybody else his age before he was even old enough to watch the rated R ones. He’ll watch just about anything, though he tends to avoid the horror movies without a sense of humor. Among his favorite movies are: Alien, Fargo, True Romance, Ed Wood, and Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. He’s a die-hard LOST fan and a Brown Coat.

As a writer, story usually comes first for James. Memorable characters and sharp dialogue are the things that separate the classics from the chaff. That said, he does his best to keep having fun at the movies. He’s seen plenty of critics who would once have accepted summer blockbusters as entertainment become jaded and nit-picky. Sure James loves the art of film and storytelling, but fun comes first, the fun that he had watching Raiders when he was little.

Also, E.T. scares the pants off him.
