“There’s nothing quite like an astronaut, a spaceship, and and an alien planet! They leave the imagination wide open for anything! That spaceship can fly over the moon, beyond the stars to anyplace you want to go. Catch a ride today. Space Jockey Reviews will take you there!” ~ Chris Rennirt

A very nice empire you’ve constructed here. Dig the reviews!
Thanks, Rocko! I appreciate the compliment! Stop in and check it out anytime! There’s lots more to come!
Excellent website Chris! Very well put together. Really enjoy the “X-Files” link. Keep up the good work!
Hello, Captain Ron! It’s good to see you here. New rockets are being launched every day, so check back in anytime. I expected you’d like the “X-Files.” 😉
Good stuff here Chris. I saw YES in Louisville way back in 1978. for the Relayer tour. My folks are from Paris Ky if you’ve ever heard of it.
Thanks, Bill! Yes, I’ve passed by Paris, Kentucky many times on my way to someplace else. I really should stop in there sometime and check it out. I should have gone to see Yes myself. “Your Move” is one of my favorite songs.
Hey Chris, had a great time hanging out with you guys last night for the premier of Prometheus. You guys are cool and like to have fun. Your website is Way Cool!! It’s good to now know someone more into it than me. Hope we can all do another midnight show again. When I told my wife how great the movie was………she just smiled and said…”I’m Glad.”
Later, Jeff Jarboe.
Hi Jeff,
I sure had a great time hanging out with you guys too! It was a blast for sure, and all the better to be there with other big fans. It’s good to know someone into it “almost” as much as me. As a matter of fact, Jeff, I’ll say that you are the one most closely into it as much me that I’ve ever met–and that’s a BIG compliment to any Alien fan! I am ready to do a midnight showing again anytime. Keep in touch…Chris
Love the site and the great reviews! Very cool, Chris. Thanks and I will stop in often!
Thanks, Victor!
Welcome to Space Jockey Reviews! I appreciate the comment!
By the way, that’s a really cool website you have yourself. I’ll be stopping in there as well!
