Biography from TheMovieDB

Amanda Krieg Thomas has been working tirelessly in the field of music supervision for over a decade, collaborating with top-level creators on a wide range of projects from unscripted docu-series to critically-acclaimed cable dramas and everything in between.  Current projects include new seasons of white-hot dramedy Claws (TNT), break out ballroom drama Pose (FX) and thrilling network drama, 9-1-1 (Fox), as well as Ryan Murphy’s first two projects for Netflix, feminist horror series, Ratched and satirical comedy, The Politician. Most recently Amanda worked on the award-winning espionage drama, The Americans (FX), celebrated limited series, The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story (FX), American Horror Story: Apocalypse (FX), family comedy, Life In Pieces (CBS) and legal thriller, Proven Innocent (Fox). Last year she also served as music supervisor on the emotional thriller Reverie (NBC) and Sundance darling Madeline’s Madeline (Oscilloscope). Additional credits include Feud: Bette and Joan (FX), Scream Queens (Fox), indie features Billy Boy and Girl Flu, and The People vs. O.J.

There she music supervised unscripted series Commercial Kings (IFC) and One Born Every Minute (Lifetime) in addition to serving as Music Manager on the long running hits, MasterChef (Fox) and The Biggest Loser (NBC). In early 2012 she joined Format Entertainment as Music Coordinator on projects such as Pitch Perfect 1 and 2 (Gold Circle Films/Universal), The Other Woman (Fox), Beyond The Lights (Relativity) and ABC comedy, Trophy Wife, before transitioning to a Music Supervisor role at the company. Highlights there include performance competition show, Fake Off (truTV), the 2015 American Girl “Girl Of The Year™ film, Grace Stirs Up Success (American Girl/Mattel), and indie film French Dirty (Homegrown Pictures).

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.
