When the citizens of Bikini Bottom discover that a volcano is about to erupt and destroy their beloved town, SpongeBob and his friends realize they must come together to save their underwater fate. When it seems that life is in danger of collapsing and all hope is lost, an unexpected hero suddenly arises... revealing to all the residents of Bikini Bottom that the power of true optimism knows no bounds, and that the world can really be saved with its help! The crazy animated world of the series - centered on the adventures of SpongeBob - gets a live-action version, with Patrick Star, Squidward, Plankton, and the other beloved characters, brought to life in a musical that succeeds in bringing the wild colors of the series to the theater stage, with songs written by the best composers in the world, among them: David Bowie, Bryan Adams, Cyndi Lauper, Aerosmith and more.

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:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
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.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
