I’ve been away on deployment for the past 3 years and now back in the states I decided to catch up on John and Schnepp . I’m just finding out he passed away and this just hit me like losing a friend. He left a great impression in my life without even meeting him. Rest In Peace buddy.

I have literally never cried over the loss of someone I didn’t know personally until I found out schnepp passed . You brought me so much laughter and joy schnepp. Rest in sweaty power

From now on, every comic convention I go to, I will think to myself about Schnepp; “if you seek his monument, look around you”

Who the hell would give this video a dislike ??? We keep losing great people like Jon while assholes are still roaming this planet !!

I've never met Jon Schnepp, but I feel like I've lost a good friend.

I love the Collider crew and think they put out great content, yet (not sure how weird this will sound) I think watching Movie Talk or Heroes will simply be too sad for me... at least for the foreseeable future

I loved his sense of humor and his thoughts on Collider Heroes. Jon sounds like a great teacher or philosopher.

RIP Jon Schnepp. You and Jon are the reason why I started to watch AMC movie talk back in 2014 and then Collider. I'm going to miss him alot!

Very sad indeed. I used to love the original group of Tzeng, Campea, Ami Rose and Schnepp on AMC. My first exposure to the awesome man that was John Schnepp. RIP King of the sweaties.

Schnepp passing is the first time I cried when someone I didn't personally know passed away. That's all on Schnepp. His level of personable exuberance emotionally connected the audience to him. He held nothing back, loved fandom with his whole being, and wore his emotions for all to see. Big man. Bigger heart. A devastating loss. A heavy reminder of the brevity of life.

Jon Schnepp is one man I find it so hard to say goodbye to. I never met Jon, yet I always thought of him as a very special friend. I actually began crying very profusely when I found out the news. It is hard to believe that I watched him doing his live Hero broadcast on July 11, being as sweaty as ever - excited about Wizard World and SD Comic-Con. July 12, he was laying in a hospital bed. RIP Jon Schnepp!

It's that time again folks. I watch this every year

Schnepp, Campea, Dennis and Amirose were the ones who really got me excited about talking movies again on AMC Movie Talk and are directly responsible for growing my passion into a small KZread channel. RIP Schnepp. Stay sweaty.

3:25 *I like how these two pictures tell one story: On the left there is Jon and you see the plants down below and the vines covering some of the rails. On the right I see John toasting Jon, who is not there, but my, how the plants have grown and the vines have thickened up!!!! It is a symbol of life going on. I think this is a wonderful way of saying hey, Jon would want us to live and to bloom and grow to our fullest. I am quite sure he loved life and now he knows how precious it is. Thanks, Jon. And, thank you John.*

I’m here because I just found out Jon passed. I’m ashamed I’m just finding out a year later. I was a casual fan who started watching during the AMC days but I fell off during the Collider run. Jon was awesome and now I wish I would’ve been more dedicated. Thank God we have KZread to go back and watch all of his awesome videos. I have some serious catching up to do. R.I.P. Jon! 😢

Campea and Schnepp are the reasons why I got into movie punditry.

I still miss him.

I never met Jon Schnepp, he never knew I existed. Yet, felt like I lost a friend. In a weird way, I spent more time watching Schnepp throughout the years than I spent with family amd friends. That sounds weird but I watched AMC and Collider everyday. RIP Schnepp you will be missed greatly. #KingOfSweaties

@@nimblebimble I think so too. Looking at the comments of this and Collider's video, we all were effected. I shed tears today multiple times.

The fandoms owe YOU a thank you John Campea because of your Eye and insistence that people like John Schnepp MUST be part of the things you built. I probably would have not been introduced to Schnepp if not for YOU, Campea.. the fandom is richer because of your work as well. R.I.P. - to the best of us nerds.. the King of the Sweaty's

I honestly teared up every time a photo of him popped up. Campea and Schnepp literally altered my life in the biggest way. My heart feels empty with him gone. RIP

I watched Jon Schnepp when he was part of AMC Movie Talk then transitioning to Collider Movie Talk and have been a huge fan of his because he always brought laughter, joy, fun, awesomeness to everything. Hearing his untimely passing is just hard to process. The passion he showed for what he loved was just amazing. There were times when I had bad days I always watched Collider Heroes because when he starts his video you immediately know you are going to have fun from start to finish. His wit, sense of humor, spontaneity was just impressive. Schnepp was all about passion and he always encourage his colleagues, fans telling them if you are passionate about something you should pursue no matter what even if people say you can't succeed you should always prove them wrong.

“If you seek his monument, look around you”

Jon Schnepp directed a Black Panther cartoon years before the character became popular to the general public. He was truly the King of the Sweaties. He loved comic book and comic book movies and movies in general. He will truly be missed.

You would have loved Endgame Jon, every-time I hear the track ‘The Real Hero’ on the album I will think of you. Love you 3000 bud. RIP

Revisting 5 years later, inspiring stories x

Jon Schnepp & John Campea is the reason i watched AMC movie talk and now Collider . Is really heartbreaking, r.i.p Jon.

Like the majority of anonymous fans online I never had the pleasure of meeting Jon Schnepp in person. Despite that he still managed to make me think about movies and make me laugh in a way that few others in the world of online movie fans could. May he rest in peace and always be remembered

can't believe the AMC Movie Talk episode with Schnepp talking about GotG was almost 6 years ago now (Aug 23, 2012).

I find it strange how people could dislike this video..

Thank you John for introducing us to Jon. My life is truly better for having had him in it. Best wishes.

Ive been struggling over the weekend trying to figure out why Johns passing has hit me so hard when ive never met the guy. You nailed it when you said what he meant to the fandom. Your 100% right. The fandom will never be the same without him and that breaks my heart. I will forever miss his passion and enthusiam. RIP John

Earial Huston this is how I felt I’m glad you wrote what I am feeling. I don’t know why it’s affected me so greatly but it hurts and the world feels less full knowing he won’t be in it me. Silly as it sounds watching avengers 4 without him, knowing the X-men and FF will eventually join the MCU and not hearing Jon’s excitement joy love tears me up.

I was lucky enough to go to art school with Jon and we made many projects together. He was always one of the most creative and big hearted people I've ever met. He was loved by all and will be missed by many...

Rest In Peace Jon Schnepp

Just came back to watch this. Even as just a viewer, I appreciated what Schnepp brought. RIP

I've said once and I'll say it again.. both you and #JonSchnepp were the reasons why I started following AMC back in the day. The only 2 movie reviewers that mattered to me are you and Schnepp. The big guy will be missed

The Campea->Dennis->Amirose->Schnepp era was when I first become aware of JC, and AMC Movie Talk. It was one of those perfect groups, full of chemistry and camaraderie, where everything just 'worked'. Nothing after came close. Will really miss Schnepp, and I appreciated everything he did. Thanks for doing this John.

I haven't seen Collider's tributes to Jon yet because I had to hear 1st from the Man who was there at Schnepp's KZread beginning: Thank YOU, John Campea, for giving Schnepp that voice to be the Fan King! Your conclusion of Jon's loss being unable to be totally filled is spot on. I'll never forget that you introduced Schnepp to us: You both have done what you Love & I hope to takes steps in the near future to do the same. I hope you're doing well, John; may God grant you Comfort as you move on.

How can people give such a video a dislike. Its truly disgusting to think people could do that. Amazing video john, schnepp is already missed by so many and will never be forgotten ❤️

That wasn't boring at all John, in fact it was very beautiful and touching. And in a way we all as sweaties lost a dear and genuine friend.

It crushes me that Schnepp missed Avengers 4. I know that's the last thing that matters, but it still crushes me. He was one of a kind and the greatest there is.

Schnepp will never be forgotten among us Campea fans

Hard to imagine he won't see avengers 4 😢

The fact that Jon Schnepp passed away the same year as Burt Reynolds, Aretha Franklin, Steve Ditko, AND Stan "The Man" Lee, Mr. Schnepp's family should take solace that their loved one is in Good Company as these LEGENDS are carpooling on their way to Heaven! GODSPEED!

My eyes watered while watching this I can't lie, during my short 18 years of life I have spent at least the last 4 years being a huge movie and superhero fan and I'm happy to say that Jon schnepp is a big reason why, I thank him for that and I thank you too Mr. Campea, it might look odd saying this but I wouldn't be the person I am today without the both of you, thank you. rest easy jon schnepp

I almost gave up on my own KZread channel until Schnepp talked me out of it and his loss hurts, but I will celebrate his joy for life and entertainment. His words of encouragement will live with me to the rest of my days. God bless you Holly.

So I have been away from the internet for 2 months and its heart breaking hearing this news. I will always remember the original 4 AMC people, they were such entertainers. Schepp, you will be missed

Schnepp kept all the trolls in check. After he died, the fandom became so toxic and insufferable.

Everyone respected him, the king sweaty, chaos ensued after he passed :(

It took a lot for me to get up this morning. John you and #RMB were Schnepp's 2 right hands I rocked with you all since AMC's For Your Consideration days. This day taught me something.This is the day where it's ok to cry but remember him. To celebrate his legacy and his homecoming. John please forgive me when I say this *FUCK THE 26 ASSHOLES WHO DISLIKED THIS TRIBUTE* I think schnepp would have liked that!!! *RIPJONSCHNEPP* *Sunrise* May 16,1967 *Sunset* July 19, 2018 I will always and forever #Sweat4Him!!!

I traded my "Night Force" comic books (1983/ Vol.1/ 14 issues) to Schnepp for "TDOSLWH". He sent me the DVD/Blue-Ray combo signed with a patch and sticker. I also sent Jon 2 issues of "The New Teen Titans" featuring the introduction of "The Runaways" that he was supposed to give to YOU because I remember you saying your wife loved The Runaways on an episode of Heroes or Movie Talk. I figured it would be a nice gift to spring onto your wife one day but I never asked Schnepp if he gave them to you. I also sent him a couple of horror comics from 1983. THAT was my fandom connection with Jon- not comics but horror. That guy knew his horror movies. Stay Sweaty, Campea!

When Superman himself, Henry Cavill, writes a post commemorating your contributions to the film and comic book world, you know you were one of the GOAT. RIP Schnepp. Hope you're watching the comic book movies in that golden movie theater in the kingdom of Heaven. There has been and always will be one king of the sweaties, and his name is Jon Schnepp.

He was one of us. That's why even though I never met him, I'm still crying and sad along with people who knew him. My condolences to his family and friends and all who knew him. RIP Schnepp. You will be missed.

Thank you John. Without you #Heroes wouldn't exist.

Just wanted to say thank you John for introducing me and many of us to Jon Schnepp. Three years ago, I was in a really low place. I didn't see a future, I didn't see any hope, no light at the end of the tunnel. I don't have a lot of friends, socialising is difficult for me. I felt so alone. It was guys like Jon Schnepp who helped me through that. His shows talking about superheroes and comic book movies made my world. It gave me hope,it showed me that there were people like me,that I wasn't alone and that I had friends. I'm still not great at the moment but I have hope, hope instilled in me by people like Jon Schnepp, who wore his heart on his sleeve and had so much enthusiasm for what he was passionate about. That in itself helped me grow passionate, it gave a reason to live. It was an honour and a privilege to watch his videos and see his personality and passion ooze from the screen. Hearing of Jon's passing has hurt me deeply. I feel like I've lost someone close. What he brought to the community can never be replaced but his legacy will live on because he inspired so many to love their passions. For all his talk of heroes, Jon Schnepp was one of the biggest of them all. If we all lived like Schnepp, the world would be a better place. A great geek and a great man. RIP.

Jon seemed like the kind of guy that was low maintenance and everyone’s desert island companion. Rock on buddy 🤘

I love Schnepp. A true hero

I remember Schnepp from the days where he was just a guest on AMC. Funny guy. I'll remember him for the laughs.

Amc movie talk and jon schnepp got me through a dark point in my life. Would watch the show religiously after work on my phone smoking a cigarette out my window. I was at the time having frequent anxiety attacks and dealing with chronic insomnia, and was the loneliest time of my life. But watching Amc at the end of the day always put a smile on my face, and jon schnepp was a massive part of that. Just seeing Schnepp geeking out over the latest movie news was truly captivating and joyfull. Also the guy was hilarious and had me in stitches so many times during the Amc days. He truly had a one of a kind sense of humour that was never at anyone's expense, he was only there to spread his love for everything that is movies and comics. and that showed every time he spoke on camera. The guy was one in a billion and I will miss him very much. My thoughts go out to his family and friends and anyone who had the pleasure knowing him. Rip Schnepp

John, you and Schnepp got me into movie talk 5 years ago and I thank you for that. Sweaty for life.

His Transformers 4 rant on schmoes will forever be my favorite

I've watched you for years, John. This is your greatest video ever. You showed GREAT poise and humility during this very difficult time. Jon's teachings are still happening for you. Thank you for posting this. Keep up the good work. God Bless.

Jon was such an amazing person. Here we are, a year after his passing, and people still look back and mention him, talk about him, use his "Sweaties" term, and just overall love and appreciate his passion and what he meant to each of us. This is incredible considering most of us never even met him. He has TRULY left behind a Legacy that will long be remembered. Long live the King of the Sweaties!

I watched that show on my lunch break at the university of Phoenix classroom in 2010 and ive been watching Schnepp almost everyday since. Feels like i lost a friend who i never met.

I feel the same way. I've been watching Movie Talk since 2015; every time Jon was on the panel, I knew I was in for something outrageous and/or hilarious. It was weird when I explained to my roommate about Jon and started choking up. I realized I felt a tremendous loss for someone on the internet. Wish I could have met him in the flesh, but grateful that he produced enough content to get to know him at all

every collider video involving Schnepp I knew it was going to be a great show. and it always was.

Five years wow. RIP

It’s been almost a year but I still think about Jon a lot. We live in a time where nerd fandom is at an all time high. I would have never thought years ago we would so much media of Star Wars, DC, Marvel, etc. Every time I see a new comic book movie and every time I go to a comic book store I think about him. Thank you Jon for showing me its ok to be proud of who I am. Rest In Peace Jon Schnepp .

I will never forget the night we met Jon. It was the amc taping in Atlanta. Me and my twin brother were super early probably an hour early. So we ate and saw Jon walking down below us. We didn't know how it would go but we wanted to meet him before the event. He stopped talked us while we were walking then we stopped in the Lego store. Him and Dennis were taking a picture with a big Lego Batman. Ill never forget. He looked at me and my brother and said we need twins in this picture come on twins. My favorite memory. I felt so honored to be in an amc picture with Jon. Obviously we talked later about comics and film....took more pictures together but that first interaction was the best and one of my favorite memories ever because he included us in that. Even we only met him once I still felt like a friend....a fellow nerd. I felt apart of his life even we never saw each other again. I still felt apart of all of it. Even if it was just watching from the screen. RIP Jon !

I always wanted you, Schnepp and Dennis to comeback together.

Gone too soon. We all loved Schnepp

I still cant believe Jon passed away. That sucks.

I can't believe how much this man that I have never met has impacted my life

His authenticity, creativity, enthusiasm and kindness will forever be remembered. R.I.P. Jon Schnepp. You will be missed greatly. Namaste

Jon Schnepp you are missed Rest In Peace and you would have loved the Avengers EndGame.

His passion for his work was admirable. RIP Schnepp.

Screw those guys who were trying to force you to do this earlier. No compassion for those mourning and collecting their thoughts.

I keep saying the same thing. Best Friend I never got to meet. He will be missed.

I still miss Schnepp very very much. 😢 I had a dream a couple nights ago that I was in a dark place and suddenly I saw him. I reached out to him and he took my hand and helped me up. I haven't seen or read anything about Schnepp in months. He's still in my mind. I miss you you big teddy bear, shirt rat, King of the Sweaties! God bless.

Thank you John for sharing your stories. RIP John Schnepp our true Hero

I’ll never forget him saying over an episode of Heroes that whatever you have on your mind to create, do it today for you may not have the chance to see it realized tomorrow Thank you Jon Schnepp for that piece of advice that wakes me up everyday. And thank you John Campea for continuing that march of passion and fandom

Jon was the "Everyman". He was all encompassing and engaging. He brought you in and you were a part of him, and a part of the community. He defended every marginalized group and loved life and everyone to the full. He made such an impact on me that I have learned so much from who he was. Not what he said, which of course you can learn from, but who he was as a person. THAT, above all, is what I will miss!!!

Thanks Campea, for the wonderful tribute to Schnepp!

Thank you John. I loved it when Schnepp would call back those obscure films that blew my mind as a kid to like Zardoz and Phantom of the Paradise. I loved his passion for art and support of artists. I will miss seeing Schnepp on the tube. Like an old comic book, the world seems a little more faded without him but all the richer he was here. RIP Schnepp.

Favorite era too John. You guys were Must Watch TV for me back then. Miss Scnepp already.

Sitting here reading comics on a Saturday afternoon and Schnepp just popped into my mind. His enthusiasm was what got me back into comics after several years off. I miss his energy and passion and his crazy ass hair.

I’ve been watching him on amc when I was 12, he was my hero.

Thank you John. 1st, and foremost, my heart is broken for you & Ann, and the both of you are in my thoughts, prayers,, and you my deepest condolences in this incredibly difficult time, and for the loss of Jon Schnepp. Second, Thank you with the entirety of my heart. You ARE the single biggest reason a LARGE majority of the comic book community, the AMC Movie Talk, then Collider Video fans, Marvel and DC fans, some movie fans in general, and even heavy metal fans, for introducing, again, a large majority of all of us, too the #KingOfTheSweaties, the great Jon Schnepp! His knowledge AND passion was second to none, his realness was genuine, his passion pure, and the joy he got from sharing his knowledge to those he spoke and or met with. I had the honor and privilege to met Jon last year at NYCC, drank with him & played pool, walked, talked and laughed together. I went to his panel, as were 50 other people, but, for some reason, it go cancelled. But NO ONE told us fans waiting. As far as Schnepp know, it was cancelled. Then some tweeted him, and the NYCC peeople told him, no one told the fans, and they are waiting. So Jon RUSHED over, and he was sweaty lol....He saw us and went WASSUP!. He apologized to us, and said he was told it was cancelled! He was doing the Chucky Panel. So Jon talked with us for about 40 minutes or so, and afterwards I waited to speak with him. And you were right. He IS the same in person, as on camera. We talked about comics, movies and heavy metal. I gave him my 4 Metallica LIVE DVD's of their 30th Anniversary shows that was for us Fan Club Members. Jon put em in his bag, and then handed me a Jon Schnepp signed, #1 Slayer comic he just did. I was blown away. We walked and talked metal for like 500ft, lol, and he asked if I was going to the Meet and Greet later on, and I said yes. He said cool, see ya their! I got to the bar early, and when Jon came in, I waved him to the back where not a lot of people were. I offered to buy him a drink, and he asked if I wanted to play pool? Both were yeses. I bought him a drink and played pool with him a couple of games as we talked more metal, the MCU and more. And I got him pretty buzzed, lol. I walked over to the NY Comedy Club with him as Mark Ellis was putting on a show, where Jon and Rocha, were going to have a few minutes each on stage. When Ellis announced Schnepp, the place EXPLODED in cheers and applause! It was loud as hell, and awesome! And he was BUZZED big time, which was clearly noticed by all, lol.. He had the loudest cheers of the night! Everyone LOVED HIM! And rightfully so!. Now we will never who know if I, or the lot of us who never heard of Schnepp before Movie Talk, would've ever heard of him, IF you didn't get that recommendation from your friend! I've been watching you since early 2011, months after my Mom died from a brutal bought of COPD. Nothing made me happy any more, and nothing interested me. Then I saw a GIF of you on YT, with your arms in the air, and a smile, in the recommended video's. So I watched it, learned things, and actually grinned, then laughed, for the 1st time in months. Movie Talk became my daily go-to, and slowly started helping me gett out of my depression. Now fast forward to what you brought up in the video, "Who were the GOTG?" I remember the episode well. You said that line, and introduced this guy, Jon Schnepp to help us out! And the rest was history. This guy KNEW his comic book info, and all of it. Writers, artists, story lines etc.. It was quite impressive. Then you had him on again, and from a fans view, it was magical, the chemistry was off the charts. The back and forth, feeding off each other, was awesome. Then one show, you said back by popular demand, as you the fans asked for more Schnepp, Here's Jon Schnepp! And then you hired him!! I was so thrilled when it was announced I pumped my fists in the air and I was smiling so big in happiness! Everyone you were on screen with, had "it", and had chemistry with you. Which was OFF THE CHARTS btw! My favorite shows were of you, Jon, Kristian and Mark. The chemistry and togetherness WAS AND ALWAYS WILL BE, PURE MAGIC! Thank you for what you have done for all of us fans, and for introducing us to the man who all of us just loved to see, wanted to learn from, hear from, and want more of on a daily basis.
