The Comeback: In 1968 Elvis showed up on television, in black leather with his Rock 'n' Roll fire burning as stronger than ever, leaving no doubt in anyone's mind as to who just crashed the party of the late 60's bands. They may have been big but Elvis was still the King! The Vegas Years: The Vegas years chronicles the forever impact Elvis had on sin city. From the flopped 1956 appearance to the 1970's legendary performances at the International Hotel. You'l hear from the likes of Bill Medley, Kenny Rogers, & Connie Stevens as the discuss the jumpsuits, planes, the girls, the fun. Elvis' Favorite Playground...Las Vegas
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.
