Original Title:
Mourinho and the Special Ones

In response to a challenge, Alex and his friends agree to take on the fearsome and organized Sharks at a football game. What nobody knows is that José Mourinho is watching this game ... and that will make all the difference. It is from this day on that the rivalry between the two teams will grow and lead the Sharks to fight to be winners in an attempt to prove their superiority through all means. Our heroes, despite being amateurs, have their strengths that are the result of effort, work and talent, but above all the result of a great friendship that unites them and that in the end can prove decisive. Each of them has some special particularity that they use in favor of the team and that together they work in a homogeneous and perfect way. Over time and after many adventures and misfortunes, we will discover whether the hard physical training, the rigid organization of the club structure and the dirty game are enough to get the better of the effort, dedication, work and above all the humility. Without even imagining it, the life of Alex and his friends is about to change. With effort, dedication, work and humility will these friends be able to become… Special Ones?

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.
