Biography from TheMovieDB

Daniel Tirado is a New York based comedian, actor and writer, born and raised in Montreal. Upon graduating from McGill University with a BA in Literature and Religion, he moved to NYC to study acting at The Neighborhood Playhouse School of the Theatre. Shortly after, Daniel ventured into stand-up where he quickly caught the attention of the comedy industry when he was invited to perform at the Montreal Just For Laughs, only six months into stand-up. Since then, he has been a regular at the festival, playing in various shows including Best of the Fest. In addition, Daniel has entertained audiences in French at Juste Pour Rire (the French division of Just For Laughs), making him one of a handful of comedians to perform at the festival in both languages. Also, Daniel was one of the Top Ten Finalists at the StandUp NBC showcase. Other festivals include the Laughing Skull Comedy Festival and The Big Sky Comedy Festival, a nationwide search for talent that considers over a thousand submissions. Moreover, Daniel has toured with movie star and international marquee comedian Gad Elmaleh for his "The Dream Tour." Films and TV credits include NBC's "10.5: Apocalypse," "Let the Game Begin," starring Steven Baldwin and Michael Madsen, "Steel Toes" starring Emmy nominee David Strathairn and the award winning short "The Rip-Off."

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.

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.
