About jackiechad

Who am I?  I'm a figment of my imagination.  Epinions imagines me to be among their top movie reviewers of 2006.  Hopefully that will be a continuing trend.  I guess time will tell. 

I'm a geek, but a geek with a black belt. 

I love virtually all things Star Wars - you'll find a lot of related reviews in my repertoire.  That and Jackie Chan movies are a large part of the reason I collect DVD's (well that and I detest commercials so I watch all TV shows on TVD). 

 I've studied Karate and Tae Kwon Do which is why I get so into Kung Fu flicks.  Get me started on Star Wars or Kung Fu and you'll be lucky if I ever shut up.

I prefer the comedy of parodies (Weird Al, Mel Brooks, etc.) to most other forms but generally tend to stay closer to darker forms of entertainment (heavy metal music, X Files, Tim Burton) which is tempered by my religious views.  Though I enjoy a bit of the morbid, ominous, and depressing, I tend to prefer works with something redeeming in them and mostly avoid things that push to the extreme particularly if it's done for no better reason than the sake of shock-value marketing.  For example, I love heavy metal, as I said, but I try to avoid songs with a lot of bad language or Satanic imagery.  So I guess my religion keeps me from going completely to the dark side.

I do tend to write and be biased towards entertainment that falls in line with my Christian views.  They tend to be rated highly even when readers disagree with my views, though, because I don't write specifically for the religious reader; I tend to not be preachy about it and make it a point to look at the non-religious aspects of a work.  Conversely my religion shows up in reviews that don't necessarily have anything to do with matters of the church.  I always include a section called "content" in my DVD reviews that sums up the questionable content which is primarily intended to help my church-going friends make decisions about what they wish to subject to. 

While I tend to write mostly movie reviews I've put my jobs to good use for your benefit, as well.  My previous job was maintaining and repairing desktop printers for a fairly large company.  This has made for some great reviews because I got to see the regular operation of multiple units of the same make and model compared against similar machines.  With any machine it's possible to get a dud, but I am able to tell you if it was one bad apple or a spoiled bunch

I've also been a radio/club DJ and am a published writer so you may see elements of that show up when I write.  I guess that's pretty much everything interesting about me that relates to the reviews I write.  Go read some!
