I'm 17 and a Junior in High School. Not much really to say, I play Trombone, I love music and I watch a shitload of movies. I'm starting my own youtube channel in a couple weeks where I review both old and modern shitty movies(like Avatar). So yeah, thats pretty much it.

Low brass in a high school band. Brings back memories.

lol yeah man. what did you use to play?

Hi, I'm Mondo (well, not really, but that would be a cool name!). I found Brad through, appropriately enough, the Bruno Mattei Show's Mondo Erotico episode when it showed up on TGWTG. As a huge exploitation and VHS fan, I've been hooked since.

I'm an amateur filmmaker heavily inspired by the classics of exploitation horror; I just finished a script for an 80s slasher pastiche with elements of gothic horror, giallo, and others, and a supernatural movie based on Lovecraft, hippy Satanist movies, Suspiria, and Fulci's Gates of Hell pictures. I also have a series called The House of the Weird where I host great 50s and 60s b-movies in the style of Vampira or Zacherley, but life has gotten in the way, and there's only on episode so far. Here it is, if you're interested. I hope to have another episode up soon that will be greatly improved; I've learned fom a lot of this episode's mistakes, so the entire set has been rearranged, and I've gotten a better camera that actually stays on the tripod. Enjoy.

Trombone and baritone, as a matter of fact.

greetings, my fellow Snob fans

some of you may have seen me comment on the vids under the name "Jake 'Gasmask' Abate" and others may or may not have seen me on others parts of the world wide web

i'm an aspiring filmmaker who, at the moment, is writing fanfics of several franchises I like as a bid to see if I can finish something before attempting to write a legit screenplay (to make a long story short, I tried to make a movie in 10th grade, but that failed horribly)

like several others here, i'm a huge Horror/Sci-Fi/Cult Cinema junkie who owns a rather sizable DVD collection of movies of that ilk, as well as (hopefully) make films

my music tastes, on the other hand, are a lot stranger, but more on that at a later date

as for how I got into the Snob, I first discovered his videos when the Spoony One was hosting them and I quite frankly don't regret doing so

in short, that's who I am to an extent and i'll see you all around!

FRENCH HORNERS UNITE! Actually I sucked really badly on my Horn, and never even really played at practice or in the concerts. Only took the class for the free credit.

Yeah, I'm a bit jealous, as my band classes were a little more intensive. The 11-hour-outdoor-practice-in-the-Florida-summer kind of intensive.

Been a fan of The Snob and Brad Jones in general since his early Snob videos. I've even had the honor of having him be a guest star on the podcast me and my two friends do, The Mentalcast (I'm not the host of it, my friend Mike was). Brad was absolutely funny and was a blast to have on.

Band class was a complete joke in my school. We sounded like shit, our music was shit, and we went through music teachers like shit tickets. The most fond memory I had of that class, was getting everyone's free time taken away because I skipped out of class (they were all assholes, so they deserved it).

Did you at least find some grain of enjoyment?

It was fun, I spent most of my High school days goofing off as apposed to doing actual school work.

My name is Orlando Eastwood, it's my stage name alias, real name is Stephen. I have been a Cinema Snob fan for 2 years now since the end of 2008. Saw some of his stuff on Youtube while surfing around one night while sick as hell in college and been hooked ever since. I am an indie filmmaker. I have shot one feature and I'm working on getting the second film shot here in March if all goes well.

Oooh, tell us about your films dude.

I made a thread for it, Traumatic Possession Tape 1. Filmmaking has been my passion since I was four years old and I have stuck with it ever since. I took four years of film classes; two in Germany and two in Hawaii. This was from 2004 to 2008. Any other questions, feel free to ask on here or PM me.

What type of genre do you like to do film wise?

Posts : 114 Join date : 2011-02-03 Age : 34 Location : Ohio

I like all types except for musicals. I'm also using my French and German to my advantage and planning to make foreign films as well.

Hello, my name is Bassbait. Rhymes with "a**mate", if that helps.

I live near LA (not actually in LA.)

My favorite film directors are Stanley Kubrick and then David Lynch.

My least favorite thing on the planet is Quentin Tarantino.

My favorite food is PIZZA (what else COULD it be?)

My favorite bands are my own band, Strapping Young Lad, Death, Opeth, Exodus, Buckethead, Mercyful Fate/King Diamond, and so forth.

My favorite internet reviewers are The Angry Video Game Nerd, Mr. Plinkett of Red Letter Media, and The Cinema Snob (of course!). Nostalgia Critic used to be in my favorites, but I've noticed a drop in quality, for me at least.

I am an AMATEUR (and I mean, AMATEUR) film maker and a musician.

If you want to see the greatest film ever made (I.E., my film), check it out here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jc7o0sVCbmw

You can really tell what kind of person I am from this film. So that sums it up best.

Oh, and I'm also extremely humble, concise/to the point, and narcissistic.

Hello, another mass consumer of internet reviewer videos here. Love all of Brad's stuff, also enjoy the rest of the TGWTG crew, Plinkett, the Nerd, and so on.

I've generally just been a goof-off perpetual student / grunt-level worker, nothing much to write home about.

I didn't even know about the forum until this latest Radiodrome episode. The link to it feels sort of hidden on the main page... maybe a brief entry/article about it on the main site would increase awareness/traffic? Sorry, couldn't find the right place to make this suggestion.

Hi everybody, just another fan who likes Snob's videos and some other little things. (music especially)

Hello all. I've been watching The Snob for a while. I think the first thing I saw from him was the Bruno Mattei show.

When I'm not studying English at college or watching people on the internet joke about movies, I like playing video games (platformers and RPGs preferred), reading science fiction or classic literature, and listening to the latest Neutral Radiohead Collective Weekend album.

@Fargoth

Do you mind if I take back that ring i gave you at the beginnign of the game? It's just that, I hardly ever go to Seyda Neen, so the discount I get at Arrille's isn't as valuable to me as the ring is.

I would, but the strange thing is, last time I checked my secret hiding spot the ring and all my gold were gone. Personally I think that jerk Hrisskar had something to do with it, but since he's much bigger than me I don't ask.
