Runtime: 90

The story of an eight year old genius, Sam, and his friendship with an old ballplayer who lives next door at Forgotten Dreams rest home. Retired from the Negro Leagues, Blue Genes was the greatest pitcher of all time. More than anything, Sam wants a baby brother to share his passion for science and music. Sam finds an old vacuum tube in the trash and, with it, builds a mental concentrator which allows him to see into another dimension. Sam begins seeing a baby from outer space (heaven) which nobody else can see. Things get really interesting when Blue, who turns out to be an angel, claims he needs Sam's help to rebuild the Holy Grail and reestablish Earth's connection with heaven before evil Nurse Nancy and her fiendish crow destroy them all. Only with the help of Sophia and the electronics store clerk (played by Peter Wolf) can Sam learn to see with his heart and save the Earth from impending doom

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
