CMT Crossroads: Taylor Swift & Def Leppard brings Great Britain's premier rock arena band and the best-selling artist of 2008 together for a magical night of hit songs and electrifying performances! Watch as superstar Taylor Swift fulfills her "childhood dream" of performing with rock icons Def Leppard in front of a standing-room only audience in Nashville. Genres collide in this once in a lifetime performance as Def Leppard lead singer Joe Elliott and Swift swap lyrics on such hit songs as "Photograph," "Hysteria," "Pour Some Sugar On Me," "Picture To Burn" and "Love Story." For the first time ever on DVD, CMT Crossroads showcases Def Leppard and Taylor Swift as they join an elite group of performers who have taped the critically-acclaimed CMT series.
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.
