Biography from TheMovieDB

Oscar nominee Alexis Wajsbrot’s career encompasses some of modern cinema’s most inspired action sequences, but has also seen him tug on the world’s heartstrings by overseeing moving, nuanced character performances from fully CG characters.   Hailed by James Gunn as "some of the best VFX work ever seen," Wajsbrot’s work on Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 made Rocket Raccoon the film’s star.   Prior to this, he developed some of the most mind-bending sequences to be found in Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness and oversaw Spider-Man: Far From Home’s standout ‘illusion battle’, which saw Peter Parker’s worst fears take shape.  Alongside technical knowledge and true creative flair, Alexis brings a deep love of cinema to his work—a passion that led him to co-direct the acclaimed horror film Don’t Hang Up, which premiered at 2016’s LA Film Festival.   His most recent project has seen him wave goodbye to the MCU for a spell in Peru, where he is serving as Production VFX Supervisor on the third Paddington adventure.

About the Movie Section

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:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

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.
