Xia Ding was originally a general's son in Xiqi City. The barbarian's invasion killed his parents and all the soldiers in there. Xia Ding fled to Taiping Town and grew up here with the girl A Li. Xia Ding fought against the evil dragon and wolf to protect the people of Taiping Town. When the barbarians invaded Taiping Town, Xia Ding finally knew that he was the feathered man chosen by the God of Thunder. He grew wings, drew thunder and lightning, killed all the barbarians and the witch. Unfortunately, his lover Ah Li's heart was ripped out by a witch and died. Xia Ding used his wings to protect Ah Li and turned into a stone figurine. 100 years later, during thunder and lightning, the stone cracked and gave birth to a boy. Ji Chang happened to be passing by and adopted him as his godson, naming him Lei Zhenzi. From then on, Lei Zhenzi, who could grow wings and drew the power of thunder and lightning, helped Ji Chang conquer King Zhou.
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.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
