Dave Ogle's longboard surfing video takes a look at some of the best modern longboard surfing on earth. The powerful Hawaiian surf on the beautiful island of Oahu is where Dave caught up with a few of the top longboard surfers on the planet at play, in their own backyard. World class waves set the stage for some of the most explosive surfing imaginable. This movie will give you a glimpse into their lives as we search the island for the most challenging waves Mother Nature has to offer. Dave takes a closer look at the most fabled waves on the island as these athletes push the limits, breaking bodies and boards. So sit back and relax and get ready to soak up a little Local Color Hawaiian Style!
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.
