In the spring of 2003, the six comedians DAVID BATRA, ANNA BLOMBERG, JOHAN GLANS, RACHEL MOHLIN, VANNA ROSENBERG and MIKAEL SYRÉN got both television viewers and critics to laugh at the black mood series Skatan. The action revolves around a number of odd existences, all of which live or work in the fictional Skatan neighborhood. Now we have selected the best pieces from the first season of the skater neighborhood. Enjoy the absurd, black humor and all the crazy characters. Feel the Indian guru that never gets taken seriously, the disrespectful office cleaner, the tattooed blonde, the leopard vampire vampire, the depths of the game store, the enemies at the office - and many many more unlikely characters.
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.
