History
Screen Rant was launched by Vic Holtreman in 2003,[2][3] and had its office in Saint-Laurent, Quebec, Canada. In February 2015, Screen Rant was acquired by Valnet, an online media company based in Montreal, Quebec.[4][5][6] It was combined with its sister site, Game Rant, in 2019, when Valnet acquired the other publication.[7] After agreeing to sell Screen Rant to Valnet, founder Vic Holtreman, who had served as the company's CEO,[8] retired.[9][unreliable source?]
Screen Rant features a video series called Pitch Meeting by YouTube comedian Ryan George. By September 2020, the series included over 200 videos, garnering a combined 250 million views.
