Brad started RopeofSilicon.com as a hobby and a way to possibly create an online portfolio in an attempt to get work as a freelance writer. Suddenly he realized he was having a hell of a lot of fun spawning the site you see here today and the changing designs you see above. The question he most often gets about the site is "What does RopeofSilicon mean?" Well, it means nothing when it comes to movies, as for where it comes from.... |

Laremy joined RopeofSilicon.com after he lost a bet. No, that can't be right; let's see, ah yes, he actually joined Brad after he retired from the Special Forces (where he worked as a paralegal). When Laremy isn't writing movie reviews or brushing up on academia he's interviewing celebrities from across the globe. The question he more often gets is "What does Laremy mean?" Well, it means nothing when it comes to towns in Wyoming. It is simply two words put together, and then spelled incorrectly by Laremy's mom. If you are interested I am sure you will be able to figure it out. |

Dre is a contributing writer for several publications both online and
print. His personal mission in life is to figure out what "RopeofSilicon" means so everyone will stop harassing him about it. He enjoys writing for Rope because it's the one online publication lead by a group of certified maniacs. |

Sarah joined RopeofSilicon after being stuck in a gray cube day after day. She attended an all girls private college in Boston for years mastering her god given talent Women's Studies (day-dreaming) and Psychology (gossip and talking) in order to get a real job. She excelled in everything but her major. Oh and the real job was really boring! So, here she is joining the group of very funny "certified maniacs" and, no, she doesn't have a clue what RopeofSilicon means either! |
| DOMENIC PADULO: DVD Reviewer | Check Out My Profile |

Inhabiting a New England suburb that could probably be the setting of a good David Lynch or Wes Anderson movie, Domenic was brought onto the Seattle-based RopeofSilicon to quell East-Coast/West-Coast rivalries brewing in the Internet movie community. When not reviewing DVDs, Domenic enjoys making his own movies, watching movies and talking about movies to no end. He especially likes movies that are a little beyond the mainstream, but is capable of enjoying any type of movie that is well done, or at least fun. His all-time favorite is Brick, because, at the risk of sounding like a snob, it plays with the conventions of film noir in a very cool way. Domenic pretends to know what RopeofSilicon means, but will not tell you because he does not actually know. It is his primary existential dilemma. |
| DAVID FRANK: Editorial Columnist ("The Shallow End") | Check Out My Profile |

David eats a lot of crab meat rangoons and watches too many movies. The latter of the two comes in handy as a Columnist for RopeofSilicon.com (the former is helpful for an early heart attack). During the day, David is a mild-mannered paper pusher in the desktop publishing industry, at night he's a mild-mannered couch slug who occasionally scribbles out some extracurricular writing, and in the morning he's just a giant, hungover douche bag. David's two missions before death were to visit Skywalker Ranch and to kiss a real-live girl. He's done both. David needs to think up some new goals for life, and the sooner the better considering his rangoon intake. |
