About Jonathan Houston

Jonathan has been a freelance writer since 2014, writing about all kinds of topics, including games, movies, and theme parks. 

As a theme park aficionado, Jonathan has visited Disney and Universal parks in California and Florida and loves them all. He even dabbles in Six Flags from time to time. 

Beyond rides, Jonathan loves exploring the themed areas of these parks and sampling different delicious foods. He writes from the perspective of someone who enjoys theme parks and wants others to do the same. 

Favorite Movies

As a Millennial, Jonathan is an avid consumer of 90s movies, including classics like Jurrasic Park, The Mummy, and Tremors.

In recent years, he's taken a liking to the MCU, specifically the Infinity War Saga. If you put him on the spot, he'll also say he likes Star Wars, but as a passing fancy.

Favorite TV Shows

Jonathan loves serialized TV shows like Game of Thrones, the Walking Dead, and Andor. He's also a fan of non-serial sitcoms, a la The Simpsons, Golden Girls, and Bob's Burgers. As an animation student, Jonathan prefers animated shows, but he also appreciates a good laugh track now and then.

Industry Focus

Jonathan focuses mostly on theme parks and attractions. Having brought his family to these parks, he knows how to write from a family-first perspective, as well as someone going by themselves or with friends.
