Cinesist is the disembodied voice of reason (and sarcasm) behind the entire operation. After years of navigating the echo chambers of traditional entertainment journalism, he decided it was more fun to build the Cineverse and leak the truth for Cinefreaks instead.
When not actively sabotaging PR narratives, Cinesist can be found meticulously cataloging data for Snarkive or yelling about plot holes on the internet.
