A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Jon Schroder (born 1973) is an American filmmaker. He began his career in New York City writing for a myriad of television shows, cable networks, production companies, and independent film producers. Schroder went on to direct a series of short films, commercials, documentaries, and reality shows for Spike TV, Nickelodeon, MTV and Comedy Central. In addition to writing and directing, Schroder worked in various crew positions on the televisions shows, The Sopranos, Law And Order, and Sex in the City as well as for the films Spider-man, Kissing Jessica Stein, and Spike Lee’s 3 A.M. Schroder co-wrote, produced, and directed the feature film Jimmy and Judy starring Edward Furlong and Rachael Bella. The film earned two Best Feature Awards at the Newport Beach International Film Festival and the San Francisco Independent Film Festival. Jimmy and Judy was released theatrically by Outsider Pictures in the Fall of 2006.

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.
