Everything Zack Snyder does these days creates waves of fan hopes. <p><strong>The Background</strong>: Nick Venable is an Assistant Managing Editor, and the TV Editor. His humble origin story with CinemaBlend began all the way back in the pre-streaming era, circa 2009, as a freelancing DVD reviewer and TV recapper. After rising up through the ranks covering Movies, Nick leapfrogged over to the small screen to cover more and more television news and interviews, eventually taking over the section for the current era. Born in Louisiana and currently living in Texas — Who Dat Nation over America’s Team all day, all night — Nick spent several years in the hospitality industry, and also worked as a 911 operator. And if you ever happened to hear his music or read his comics/short stories, you have his sympathy. His love for his wife and daughters is almost equaled by his love of gasp-for-breath laughter and gasp-for-breath horror. A lifetime spent in the vicinity of a television screen led to his current dream job, as well as his knowledge of too many TV themes and ad jingles.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>What He's Into</strong>: Nick is one of those people who won’t necessarily insert a Monty Python reference into every conversation, but is still mentally equipped to do so. Beyond such appreciation for surreal UK comedy, Nick also indulges in as much horror splendor as possible, from Stephen King novels to James Tynion IV comics to Freddy Krueger one-liners to all things Mike Flanagan. Throw in a dash of NFL, some 311 and Weird Al, fried crawfish poboys, bourbon, ‘90s-era pro wrestling, crossword puzzles and mystery-driven video games, and baby, you got a stew going. (Nick will insert an Arrested Development reference into every conversation, if possible.)</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>What He's Excited About</strong>: Anything Jeff Lemire, Tom King and W. Maxwell Prince think of, ever. More of Kelly Reilly’s deliriously fierce performances on Yellowstone. HBO’s The Last of Us. Clone High’s return. Colin Farrell’s Penguin being in every movie/TV show/breakfast cereal.</p>

The SnyderVerse train may have left, but fans are still at the station. <p><strong>The Background:</strong> Ryan graduated from Missouri State University with a BA in English/Creative Writing.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>What He's Into:</strong> He loves all things horror. An avid fan of Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon. Lifelong comic book fan.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>What He's Excited About Right Now:</strong> Ryan's really excited for House of the Dragon and Hulu's Hellraiser reboot!</p>

Zack Snyder, upon rewatch, I'm sorry! <p><strong>The Background</strong>: Rich Knight is a content producer for CinemaBlend who has been off and on writing for the website since 2010. He used to cover video games and DVDs (Remember those?), but now mostly writes about whatever he’s interested in at the moment. He graduated from Rutgers University (Go, R.U.!) and has written for a number of publications, including Complex Magazine, XXL, Weightwatchers, etc. But he considers CinemaBlend his favorite website to write for, mostly because it’s so much fun. And also because they let him write about Godzilla. When he’s not writing for CB, he’s a novelist and a teacher.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>What They're Into</strong>: Rich loves old movies, video games, and books. Lots and lots of books. His favorite movies of all time are Apocalypse Now, Big Trouble in Little China, and Adaptation, as well as so-bad-they're-good movies like Troll 2, Batman &amp; Robin, and Freddy Got Fingered. Bring on the awful! He’s also really big into anime, AEW, The Legend of Korra, and pretty much anything connected to the Breaking Bad universe. He’s a Nintendo fanboy for life, loves Deep Dish Pizza, and his Marvel vs. Capcom 2 team is Guile, Strider, and Wolverine. Come get some.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>What They're Excited About Right Now</strong>: Going through John Carpenter’s entire filmography, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and the drama that is the AEW locker room.&nbsp;</p>

It’s almost like The Duke is already on the hunt…for the filmmakers <p>The Background: Hugh Scott is the Syndication Editor for CinemaBlend. Before CinemaBlend, he was the managing editor for Suggest.com and Gossipcop.com, covering celebrity news and debunking false gossip. He has been in the publishing industry for almost two decades, covering pop culture – movies and TV shows, especially – with a keen interest and love for Gen X culture, the older influences on it, and what it has since inspired.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>He graduated from Boston University with a degree in Political Science but cured himself of the desire to be a politician almost immediately after graduation.</p> <p><br></p> <p>What He's Into: When not writing and editing, he is usually going to concerts, curating playlists on Spotify, or watching concert films. In addition to music, he cooks, cleans, and fixes things around the house, especially things his 10-pound terror of a dog has destroyed in a fit of bordem.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>What He's Excited About Right Now: &nbsp;Trips to the Cayman Islands and Alaska in 2024, and, as always, all the upcoming concerts he plans to attend.&nbsp;</p>

Garner’s throwback hits differently. https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/XbAXNYeMUxUvrHFt3Cg5KE.jpeg

Snyder can't stop, won't stop posting about the former DCEU. https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/QyFDQjurXJr5xt5g6DznEN.png

DC fans are sounding off. https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/QyFDQjurXJr5xt5g6DznEN.png

This is a very fitting nod to Henry Cavill.

Looks like we got another viral throwback.

The director’s take on the villain is sure to spark debate.

The former and current DC filmmakers are remembering the time they worked together.

One ticket please!

Did the filmmaker co-sign the box office showdown?

The lessons of the Snyder Cut continue to ring true.

This is a different kind of arena for Zack Snyder.

The continuing tale of Kora (Sofia Boutella) and her rag tag group of warriors plays a lot better in this part of the story.

Zack Snyder has offered takes on iconic IPs before, but his James Bond pitch is something so counter to the current mindset I need to know more.

What the first part of Netflix's "Rebel Moon" got right, and everything it got wrong.

There's a director's cut of Rebel Moon that Zack Snyder will release... later. This just raises a ton of new questions for me.

Bradley Cooper says he doesn't allow chairs on his film sets, but he's not the only director who feels that way.
