About Rob London

A cinematic obsessive with the filmic palate of a starving raccoon, Rob London will watch pretty much anything once. With a mind like a steel trap, he's an endless fount of movie and TV trivia, borne from a misspent youth of watching monster movies on TV, perusing the sun-faded goods at the local video rental shop, and staining his fingers with ink from the Video Movie Guide. Areas of interest include science fiction, film noir, horror flicks, '70s disaster pictures, Bond movies, '90s action, giant robots, dinosaurs, super heroes, and the exuberantly schlocky output of Cannon Films. He also enjoys both Star Trek and Star Wars when they're good, and maybe even more when they're bad. As a Canadian, he also has a vested interest in Canadian movies and TV shows, especially the cheesier ones dubbed "Canuxploitation."

An expert on Marvel Comics, he has also written for the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe, and is a member of the Marvel Research Team. He can frequently be found pontificating on comic-book continuity or bemoaning the misfortunes of the Toronto Maple Leafs on his Twitter account.

Favorite Media

He is currently enjoying Abbott Elementary, Dark Winds, Slow Horses, the revived King of the Hill, and the galaxy of ongoing Star Trek series. His favorite series of all time include Frasier, The Sopranos, Homicide: Life on the Street, M*A*S*H, Futurama, 30 Rock, and The Simpsons (but only the good seasons). Favorite movies include the works of Alfred Hitchcock, the Coen Brothers, David Cronenberg, and Quentin Tarantino. He believes Jurassic Park is the greatest movie ever made, while Citizen Kane is the greatest film ever made.

Industry Experience

He has written for Collider for three years, and has freelanced for Marvel Comics for seventeen years, writing character bios, profiles, and behind-the-scenes research. He recently conducted his first interviews for Collider, and is looking forward to more in the future.
