A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
A woman is slowly convinced by outside forces that the life she leads is not her own. But is her true life better or worse than the one she has been living? Satacracy 88 is the pilot webisode for "It's All in Your Hands," a form of web-based storytelling in which a character's most important decisions are made not by the character herself but by the general consensus of the viewers. In the spirit of the "Choose Your Own Adventure" books, the audience is given a choice at the end of each episode, which will determine the path that a character's life will take. At the end of Satacracy 88's pilot episode, our hero Angela must decide whether or not to keep taking a pill that may be controlling her life.
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.
