Entrepreneurs Wei Da Bao and Yu Xiao Tao work together to open an advertisement company. However, because of pressure of rent, they decide to search for co-renters. They meet a straightforward online jockey who is passionate toward acting, a female detective who is upright and serious, and the humorous son of a wealthy tycoon who wants to prove himself. The appearance of a seller who just graduated from university and seeks to open her own business opens a new chapter in Wei Da Bao and Yu Xiao Tang's life. They do not have a strong background, nor wide connections, but they seek to achieve their goals with their hard work.
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.
