A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Philip G. Atwell (often misspelled Phillip G. Atwell) is an American music video, television commercial and feature film director. Starting out as a music video producer, he took up directing in 1999. Often co-directing with Dr. Dre, he has helmed many music videos for Eminem and other hip hop artists. In 2000 Atwell directed and executive-produced the concert documentary The Up in Smoke Tour. He also produced and co-wrote Murder Was the Case, a short movie released in 1995 by Death Row Records, directed by Dr. Dre and starring Snoop Dogg. In 2001 he produced DJ Pooh's feature film The Wash featuring Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Xzibit and Eminem, among others. In 2005 he executive-produced both Damon Johnson's The Game: Documentary and Donn J. Viola's Eminem Presents: The Anger Management Tour. In 2003 Atwell directed the Turbo Charged Prelude to '2 Fast 2 Furious', a short film bridging The Fast and the Furious with its sequel, as well as "Severance Pay", a one-minute-movie for NBC's 1MMs series. Atwell also directed two episodes of The Shield and served as second unit director on both National Treasure movies. In 2007 he directed his first fiction feature, War, which starred Jet Li and Jason Statham.

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.
