Biography from TheMovieDB

Pookie's ability to deliver a powerful performance is drawn from his real life experiences. He grew up in a remote rural area in Wisconsin, doing things most of us only see in movies, like milking cows, racing snowmobiles, motorcycles and running large pieces of heavy duty farm equipment. Lyle Allen DeRose Jr. (Pookie) was born on May 30, 1962, in Racine, Wisconsin, to Barbara DeRose (Lutz) a retired Executive Secretary and Lyle Allen DeRose Sr., who is a retired Industrial Engineer. His only sibling, a sister, Cheryl DeRose. DeRose is of Italian heritage and grew up in Wisconsin's dairy land working on dairy farms. After 2 marriages Pookie took to the road driving Long Haul semi which landed him in Denver Colorado setting up a new start where he married once more, opened a small trucking company which closed 7 years later and divorced once again. This when he was discovered by the producer of a Reality show, American Guns filmed in Arvada Colorado. After filming, Pookie realized he was meant to be in front of the camera. After appearing on a few more Reality Tv shows like Lords of War and Big Rig Bounty, he moved on to short films, feature films and even a few local Colorado commercials.

About the Movie Section

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:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

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.
