Career
Jordan began publishing movie reviews on YouTube during the 2010s. Many of his critiques are focused on identity politics and plot inconsistencies in modern films. According to him, a number of such movies have at times prioritized the promotion of leftist ideologies at the cost of effective storytelling. Jordan occasionally makes videos showing positive examples of Hollywood films. Most of his videos are narrated by his humorous "drinker" persona, which Die Welt described as "an exaggerated version of" Jordan himself. Jordan runs a podcast on YouTube. During a conversation with Project Hail Mary author Andy Weir, Jordan praised the movie adaptation of the book as a quality science fiction film that appeals to a modern audience that grew up with Star Trek. During the conversation, Jordan defended the position that Paramount should remove all modern Star Trek shows, from Enterprise to Starfleet Academy, from the franchise's canon. == Publications ==
