The story begins with Santa Claus falls through a hole in the ozone layer and lands on "høggeritomten". Santa's sleigh is broken, and Santa even has a little amnesia. And worst of all is that children can not get Christmas presents if he does not get the sled repaired so he can go back up in the air again. Already in the first episode, viewers got acquainted with Inga Toppen owning Blazer Mountain Panorama Apartments. This is a mountain located just above "høggeritomten". Many rich people bought shares in this property, and they get very upset when they discover that "høggeriet" spoils the view, poisons the air with heating of the tires and the "Vazelina guys" also disrupts mountain peace by playing loud music. We also meet Synnøve who owns the small farmhouse Glenna who rent out "høggeriet" to the "Vazelina guys". She works as a cleaning lady on Blazer Mountain, and when Inga hears about this she looses her job until she agrees to cancel the lease with "høggerne".
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.
