This is hands down the rawest piece of footage we have ever shot. So, its no surprise that Paul London is involved. The Highspots.com cameras met Paul in the parking lot and follow him into the LAX Westin and all the way up to Raven's hotel room door. From the time that the hotel room door opens to the time we run out of tape it's a non stop verbal roller coaster. This is each others first meeting with one another and they have a conversation for the ages. Both men have always tried to be different but they are both at different points in their lives. While Paul is trying to find new ways to standing out from the crowd and be different. Raven is at a much later stage of game questioning the choices he made to stand out from the crowd and be different. A wide variety of topics are discussed and it feels like time just flies by. If you liked "When Paul London Met Shane Douglas" then you will love "When Paul London Met Raven".
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.
