About
Although he makes wages leading tourists around New York City like a native, Jordan was born amidst the shopping malls and central air conditioning of Monmouth County, New Jersey. He moved to New York at age 17 to study filmmaking at NYU. Jordan maintains a fledgeling entertainment career writing, producing and acting in (very) independent films.
In 1998 he co-founded LeisureSuit Media with Kerry Douglas Dye and for a few years they ran the marginally profitable LeisureSuit.net.
In 2002 Jordan succeeding in reaching his goal of reading 52 books in one calendar year. Following up on this Jordan succeeding in reaching his goal of watching 365 films in one calendar year. That list is what, eventually, gave birth to this website.
In 2004 Jordan was dubbed the Ultimate Film Fanatic of the entire US Northeast by the Independent Film Channel and has the statue, and five thousand dollar check, to prove it.
In Summer of 2006 Jordan began a project of watching and then reviewing every episode of every Star Trek franchise in chronological order.
His favorite dozen movies, if pressed, are “Casablanca,” “Koyanisqqatsi,” “The Purple Rose of Cairo,” “Grey Gardens,” “Starship Troopers,” “Hiroshima, Mon Amour,” “The Right Stuff,” “Persona,” “Ghost World,” “Road to Morroco” “One, Two, Three” and “Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home.”
Trying to pin down his top dozen albums just gives him a headache.
His cat is named Goober and his betrothed is named Ann.
