ThePoeticCritic (aka Rori Stevens)

ThePoeticCritic has been an amateur cinephile going back to her toddlerhood having access to both a VCR and pay cable. By the turn of the '90s she was seeking out professional film reviews in newspapers, libraries, and bookstores. While her formal education in film did not extend beyond two college classes while getting her degrees in other subjects, she feels she has some authority to speak.

ThePoeticCritic is CatBusRuss’s older sister. She has come to the rescue of the podcast many of time when our host could not secure a guest for the show and has participated in panels to promote “NinetyForChill” at comic conventions. CatBusRuss is usually her escort to these events, so the two have quite the symbiotic friendship.

At least half of her appearances, the two siblings just discussed the state of cinema instead of an individual film or theme. Thus, a lot of their conversations cannot be easily categorized. The only thought that CatBusRuss can categorize it as Stevens Debates. Our host thinks it is best to just give her own tab.

  • ThePoeticCritic Mega Pod: Scorsese/Disney/Vampire Cinematic Salad

    CatBusRuss⁠ gets himself ready for the five hours of driving to and from C2E2⁠ by playing back a pair of conversations with his travel companion, ThePoeticCritic⁠. These discussions are where the two siblings have to come to terms with how they may now be the biggest cinema snobs in Central Illinois.
