That was me! The number changed because I originally scraped from Canada, not realizing the libraries were different. The new default is the USA library, and you can click the little flag to switch to the Canadian library and back.

If anyone here has any feature requests, or notices any bugs, let me know!

He has a great batting average. Only rarely put out a stinker (Miami Vice). You can jump in almost anywhere and find a good to great movie. Collateral, The Insider, Manhunter, Heat - all awesome. I even like Public Enemies.

Public Enemies is great except for the two shots where it looks like he just had a camcorder around and decided that was best to use.

Finally got a chance to watch "Night Of The Hunter", and I gotta day wow what a film! Amazing cinematography, and I realized that my previous ideas about the film were all based on clips from the first half; I had no idea what was going to happen in the second half, which is always a plus.

I did a Death Race 2000/Rollerball and then Omega Man/Soylent Green double bill the next night. So now I gotta figure out if I can do doubles on the rest lol.

Also funny watching Soylent Green after all these years and being reminded that it takes place in 2022, where there's a permanent heatwave in NYC due to the greenhouse effect...

The Ashes Of Time/Eagle Shooting Heroes story remains my fave bit of trivia about him. Basically he was taking so long to make the former and running out of money that Jeffery Lau and the cast went off and made an entire movie in-between shoots.
