Original Title:
Guest Booker with Jerry Jarrett
Ratings / Certifications:
N/A
Runtime: 90
In Spring of 2000, having expended their supply of bookers, World Championship Wrestling turned again to Vince Russo. But they almost didn’t. Now Jerry Jarrett, a main poised to help the ailing company, finally gets his chance in the latest edition of the critically acclaimed series Guest Booker. Jarrett is given control of the bloated, failing empire and an opportunity to revive it before ultimate peril. Jarrett is asked to trim a roster of dozens down to the bare necessities and use the remaining talent to create the angles that would finally allow them to be competitive with the WWE product again. How many guys? How many titles? How many angles? Just what on earth can get WCW back in the race?
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.
