Experience

Ethan Anderton (aka Bradford Oman) has been an entertainment reporter for nearly 15 years. An obsession with movies, TV, pop culture and toys prepared him for this job his entire life, and it has allowed him to provide insightful and informative commentary on everything from the Marvel Cinematic Universe to Saturday Night Live. Starting out as a freelance writer at FirstShowing.net led to a leadership role as the managing editor for several years. During his tenure writing about cinema, from massive blockbusters to little indies, Ethan also dabbled in TV coverage at ScreenRant, Collider, and GeekNation. In 2015, Ethan came aboard /Film and eventually became one of the Senior Editors after the site joined the Static Media family. You can hear Ethan appearing regularly on The /Film Daily Podcast, as well as hosting his own podcasts Go Flix Yourself and The Ten To One Podcast.
