Power Play is a hilarious comedy concert where actor and comedian DeRay Davis proves that even after starring in several feature films, he still reigns as The Streets comic. Davis takes his audience through a side-splitting, roller coaster riot of subjects ranging from The Hood to Hollywood, as well as hood-rats and heaven. From relationships gone bad to rappers gone rogue, nothing is too taboo and no one is safe from the knock-out power punches that only DeRay The Difference can deliver. Filmed in front of a sold-out audience at the Best Buy Theater in New York s Times Square, Power Play is DeRay's best uncensored performance to-date and will surely be regarded as a classic among the comedy greats.
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.
