After the end of the Great War, the world becomes a wasteland. The only thing left that people can survive on is what little is left in principle, that is, money, power and alchemy. A girl called Megumi Tsuwa gets ahold of a certain secret and escapes. Reika Sahato, the woman head of an alchemy association called Garumudimere goes after Megumi. She is cornered to the point of no return. Just then, a warrior, Yuka Guren armed with a Guitar Sword on her backbeats off Reika and comes to Megumi’s rescue. Megumi’s purpose is to go to Dust City, and she asks Yuki to take her there. Yuki agrees with good grace. This is how the journey of the two girls, Megumi and Yuka starts off. Will Yuka and Megumi be able to make it safely to Dust City, fleeing from the evil hands and persistent pursuit of Garumudimere?
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.
