After a heavy storm, the grumpy Captain Eksteroog ends up on an uninhabited island. To spare the time, he decides to search for a treasure that his arch-enemy Zilvertand once buried there. Captain Eksteroog soon notices that he is not alone. Reus, a big guy of two meters and five children with their dog Smikkel have also ended up on the island. Captain Eksteroog and Reus capture dog Smikkel and force the children to search for the treasure. Meanwhile, Piet, Berend, Stien and Steven discover an island that is not on any of their maps. They go on an investigation and end up on the same island where Captain Eksteroog's resides! When they find the children there, they decide to help them find the treasure. But what if they find it and Captain Eksteroog still won't let them leave?

Although TheMovieDB might provide a key to a YouTube video, there is no guarantee that the video might be present at YouTube.
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.
