A parody of the spy mission genre, where Gummy and his friends, Kala and Harry, are taken on by a Covert Government Agency to defeat a set of nefarious villains, led by Dr Verde, who is determined to erase the colour green from the planet. CREATIVE APPROACH: THE GUMMIBÄR & FRIENDS - OPERATION COTTON CANDY is a spy-spoof, a fun detective story for all the family, with clues and connections being discovered by Gummy as he cartwheels through the narrative. Gummy solves problems via his illogical way of thinking and anarchic delight in fun and chaos, helped by his friends, Kala and Harry. In their own peculiar way, Gummy, Harry and Kala are a family, and so we have created a family of three ‘bad guys’ to oppose them - three antagonists whose stories appear separate but eventually come together so that our heroes can pull together as one to defeat them… and save the world.

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.
