    About

    Jennings Roth Cornet, known professionally as Roth Cornet, is an American film and television critic, producer, and content executive. She built her reputation as a reviewer and entertainment editor before moving into on-camera work and executive roles across several digital media companies.

    Cornet is perhaps best known for her tenure at Screen Junkies, the YouTube channel behind the Honest Trailers series, where she appeared as a host and later served as vice president of content at parent company Fandom. Her criticism has appeared on IGN, HitFix, and Uproxx, and she co-hosted the Girls on Film series with Alicia Malone. She now runs Roth Cornet Media Consulting and has produced documentary and audio projects, including work tied to the Galaxy Quest documentary Never Surrender.

    She maintains a modest but engaged following on social media, where she describes herself as a creator, producer, and critic. Her career reflects a rare combination of editorial authority and executive leadership within fan-driven media.

    Early Life & Background

    Details of Cornet's early life are sparse in the public record. She was born on December 3, 1975, in the United States, and sources indicate she was raised there, though no specific city or state is documented. Her formal education is not covered in available sources.

    She entered the entertainment industry as a film reviewer, building a reputation as a critic before becoming a public-facing on-camera personality. She wrote reviews for IGN Movies, Uproxx, and HitFix, several of which appeared on Rotten Tomatoes. At IGN she served as an editor for entertainment content with a focus on television and film coverage, and had previously been a contributing writer there. Her earliest credited on-screen work in available sources is as a writer and actress on the mini-series Fanboy Funhouse in 2010.

    IGN review bylines under her name appear from at least 2013, including pieces on The Office episode "The Farm" in March 2013, the Reign pilot in October 2013, Bates Motel in April 2013, Ray Donovan in August 2013, a Walking Dead top-25 zombies feature in April 2013, and a Cinderella review in March 2015. These bylines mark the period just before her move to Screen Junkies.

    Career Growth

    Cornet's breakthrough came in July 2016, when she announced she was joining the Screen Junkies YouTube channel. That same year she began collaborating with Alicia Malone on the Girls on Film YouTube series, discussing women in the film industry. In 2019 she was credited on the documentary Never Surrender: A Galaxy Quest Documentary.

    She rose to vice president of content at Fandom and its subsidiary brands ScreenJunkies, Cortex, and D&D Beyond, overseeing development and execution of content. Her social bios describe her as a creator, producer, and critic with credits including the Galaxy Quest documentary, a Superman audio docuseries called Supes vs KKK Podcast, and Fandom Uncovered. She has since founded Roth Cornet Media Consulting, describing a background spanning content strategy, creative direction, editorial leadership, documentary production, and audience development. She also has an author page at Screen Rant.

    A Reddit thread in r/ScreenJunkies titled "Goodbye to Roth! Favorite Memories & Her Last Show | SJU" marks her departure from the Screen Junkies Universe show.

    Public Image & Style

    Cornet presents as an authoritative, industry-insider critic and content executive. The tone across her bios is professional and credential-forward, emphasizing documentaries, docuseries, and vice president titles rather than personality-driven content. Her social media presence is modest, with Instagram follower counts in the low thousands, and she uses those platforms primarily to share professional updates and credits.

    Within the fan-media space she is recognized as a knowledgeable voice on film and television, and her on-camera work has been associated with thoughtful discussion of women in the industry through the Girls on Film series.

    Fame & Fandom (iFAMOUS Rankings)

    iFANN has not yet collected fame data for Roth Cornet, so no ranking is available. Her public profile is that of an industry figure rather than a mass-following celebrity, with a following concentrated among film and television enthusiasts who know her from IGN, Screen Junkies, and Fandom. She is not on the September 2026 iFAMOUS Rankings flagship list.

    The fanbase around her has no formal name. Her Instagram account has roughly 4,600 followers, and her X account is used mainly for professional commentary. A Reddit thread in r/ScreenJunkies memorialized her tenure on the Screen Junkies Universe show, which is the clearest example of organized fan sentiment in the documented record. No fan campaigns, charity drives, or rituals are documented.

    Interesting Facts and Legends

    Cornet is credited as both an actress and a writer on the 2010 mini-series Fanboy Funhouse, an early screen credit that predates her better-known critic work. Her IMDb credits span acting, documentary production, and the Honest Trailers franchise, reflecting a career that has moved between performance, journalism, and production.

    She holds a vice president-level executive role at a major fandom-media company while also working as an on-camera critic, a dual profile that is uncommon in entertainment media. Her social media bios list the Galaxy Quest documentary, the Superman audio docuseries, and Fandom Uncovered as signature credits.

    No widely retold folklore or viral incidents are documented in available sources. The closest item of community lore is the fan-thread nostalgia around her Screen Junkies departure, which should be treated as documented fan sentiment rather than mythology.
