Behind the reviews
TWO FRIENDS.
ENDLESS CREDITS.
Ron “The Rental King” Avis and Adam “Nighthawk” Peterson are the two voices behind Cinemasters of the Universe—friends forged in movie lore, strong opinions, and a shared belief that the credits are only the beginning.

“If we agree, the movie probably earned it. If we don’t, that’s where the fun begins.”
THE ONE WHO DRINKS. THE HAND BEHIND THE SHOW.
Ron is your host to the left. Long before the Cinemasters emerged from the great cinematic volcano, he prepared by absorbing the forgotten lore of all things cine-magical—hence the glass. His liquid merriment joins forces with the other half of the duo to craft the audio, visual, and written wonderment of Cinemasters.
Away from the projection booth, Ron is happily married, father to a son and daughter, and proud to answer to “Rad Dad.” Everything seen and heard from Cinemasters bears his creative hand.
THE KEEPER OF SACRED TRUTHS AND TRIVIA.
First things first: call him Nighthawk. Yes, it is a Step Brothers reference, and yes, the moniker deserves respect. Adam is your host to the North and the knowing-things half of Cinemasters, guarding the sacred truths, deep cuts, and movie trivia gathered across years of watching.
Adam is also a father to two righteous dudes, passing the ways of cinema to the next generation while gathering still more film knowledge for his written and spoken offerings. Ryan Reynolds remains his North Star in all things filmtastic.
Why Cinemasters exists
THE MOVIE ENDS.
THE CONVERSATION DOESN’T.
Cinemasters grew from the simple pleasure of watching movies and talking about them afterward. This is a home for those conversations: thoughtful reviews, strong opinions, memorable frames, and plenty of room to disagree.
