Biography from TheMovieDB

Ayako Omura (born December 19, 1984) is a Japanese actress, television personality, and model affiliated with Ito Company.  During the 1990s, Ayako Omura made a name for herself by appearing in various projects such as the TV drama "Yokai Newspaper" and the film "New Toilet's Hanako-san," where she acted alongside Yuko Nomura, Ai Maeda, and Maya Hamaoka. Together, they became known as the "Four Heavenly Kings of Chaidoru" and even formed a group called "Pretty Chat," which also released music.  After graduating from Horikoshi High School and later from Seijo University, Ayako Omura decided to pursue a serious acting career. She recalls that her dedication to acting truly began with the drama "The Ugly Duckling," where she received advice from the director to perform the kind of acting she truly wanted to do. This experience led her to actively engage with acting and earn praise from the director, ultimately sparking her realization that "acting is fascinating."  In addition, she shared a close friendship with Yuka Nomura, her fellow "Chaidoru" member, and they were classmates at university. They both participated in a club called the "European Culture Study Group," where they presented research on interior design and European films.

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.
