High Octane 2000 was the DVD that started the whole High Octane phenomenon. Over 200,000 copies in print worldwide, making it one of the most successful performance car DVDs in the world! We capture the moments behind the Option Magazine High Speed Trial in New Zealand, with cars exceeding 250 kph ... in the wet! Our first effort, this DVD is surprisingly entertaining, and gives a glimps of what is to come in the High Octane universe. Essential for the High Octane collector, for the novice or if you want to see where it all started!
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.
