Producer

Beginning in the late 1990s, he began working as a "predator," a producer-editor, for television promotions. Beginning working with Star Wars fan film producer Kevin Rubio, Burnett created dozens of promos for the Kids WB programming block. Beginning in December 1999, he was hired full-time by

Oscar-winning The Usual Suspects, Valley Girl, Superman Returns, Spider-Man, X-Men 1.5, X2, and The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. He edited, wrote and produced all the special features for the Blu-ray release of Star Trek: The Next Generation Complete Series box set released on June 7, 2016; he also contributed to the Blu-ray of all four seasons of Star Trek: Enterprise, with season four being released on April 1, 2014. Most recently, he, along with director Dave Parker, completed 6.5 hours of special features for the Blu-ray release of their film, The Hills Run Red, released by Scream Factory on June 16, 2020. As a feature film producer, he co-produced Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's Agent Cody Banks and its sequel, Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London, and developed and produced the 2009 Warner Premiere and Dark Castle's The Hills Run Red. In 2021, Burnett completed producing and editing Tango Shalom, the last appearance of actor Joseph Bologna

Writer/director

Burnett made his feature writing and directing debut with the 1999 award-winning film Free Enterprise, starring Eric McCormack and William Shatner, which he also edited. Beginning in 2010, Burnett has directed and edited five episodes of the TV series Femme Fatales.[1][2][3]

Media critic

Burnett began his professional writing career as the "Critic at Large" for the Larry Flynt-published Sci-Fi Universe magazine in the mid-90s. He recently wrote an essay for a Blade Runner anthology, The Cyberpunk Nexus: Exploring the Blade Runner Universe, published by Sequart Organization, on July 10, 2018. He currently runs a successful

Duel of the Fates" had radically different (and, in Robert's view, superior) ideas to the ones shown on screen in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.[4][5][6]

Until late March 2023 Burnett contributed regularly to the YouTube show of his good friend and fellow filmmaker John Campea, titled The John Campea Show.[7] In late March 2023, Meyer Burnett (jointly with Campea) announced that he would be stepping back from his involvement in The John Campea Show (whilst still making occasional appearances on it) to prioritise The Burtnettwork with Campea agreeing to sponsor certain content for an initial period of a few months on The Burnettwork and vice versa.[8]
