Having lit up the 1960s music scene with their own, highly popular brand of rock & roll, Jefferson Airplane regrouped and renamed themselves Jefferson Starship (and later, Starship) in the 1980s. Adding an addictive pop ingredient to their already potent brew paid off handsomely for the band, and opened their sound up to a whole new audience. To their surprise, Jefferson Starship landed two number one singles during this extremely productive time for the band, namely "We Built This City," and "Sara." GREATEST VIDEO HITS gathers a selection of their music videos from 1981-1987, paying tribute to their work from that era. As well as the aforementioned songs, promo's for "It's Not Over ('Til It's Over)," "Find Your Way Back," "Be My Lady," and many others are all included.
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.
