He was a big movie lover, with Rocky and Superman being his favorites. (Though he would talk during all movies). Superman was one of his first tattoos. He had an unbelievable knowledge on Marvel and D.C. comics. He loved Deadpool and the Punisher. Ryan also liked to take pictures with various canon cameras he had, draw, play acoustic guitar, pool, and poker. He spent many years upkeeping his aquariums.
