Competition to do with my website... FREE DVD!!!

degeneration · Post by **degeneration** » 21 Dec 2006, 22:46

Hey all.

If you take a look at my website, you won't see that much different to how it has been over the past several months BUT there is a HUGE difference behind the scenes.

All content on people and films is now database driven, which is going to make maintenance and updating a sh!t load easier than before, where I had written out a separate page for every person and film on the site!

So, to celebrate the rather large and very cumbersome task of transferring all the data and info from the 600 or so total files to the database I thought I'd give away a free DVD.

The task is:

On each of the Genre Index pages there is an image from a film at the top of the page. If you can identify ALL of the films used (some may have been used twice) then you can take your pic from the following DVDs.

Taxi 2
So Close (pm for more details!!

)
Spy Dad
The Others (HK version)
Hero (Jet Li china release)
Hollow Man
Night Watch (UK 1 discer)
SPL
Black Angel 1 & 2

Other films may be added to this list if I watch any that I don't want to keep.

To win you just have to be the first person to PM me with the correct answers.

Depending on how I feel, if you've got some wrong I might even tell you which ones!!

Anyway, have a good x-mas ALL!!!

There's no way I'll get this

Well done at getting it converted to ASP though. Mine are all simple HTML files. I can't be bothered to change them.

Brad, Romero

Just pM me a your guesses as I'll send the person with the most right the DVD of their choice.

Current leader is Mark with 14. I'll let you know which ones you've got right and you can have other guesses after that!!

Will stop taking entries by new year's day and will hopefully post DVD out not long after that.

Also, if anyone who uses this site has a website to do with asian dvds or something like that, then let me know, as I'm going to update my links page to include all the other sites.

So far I've got Knetan's, thelostdragon's and MdreamUK's.

Hey all...

If anyone else wants to give the competition a go, please do cause this is the last few days of it...

If no one else enters (I'll tell you which ones you get right and wrong) the free dvd is going to Markgway...

degeneration · Post by **degeneration** » 30 Dec 2006, 13:35

Well, thelostdragon put in a guess for the little comp, and is now the leader with 15/19!

So unless things change, he's gonna be getting the free dvd!

It's OK, I don't want any of the free discs, anyways.

So congrats to LD...

I've seen all the ones I want to see...

Well, let's put a more modern film (and more expensive one too) into the mix...

How about Kim Ji-Wun's A Bittersweet Life. Tartan UK R2 release.

Just watched it. Thought it was decent but not great.

thelostdragon - 15
Markgway & Slasher - 14

LOL, that's funny. I wanted to guess "Once a Thief", but then decided not to, as I thought it was rather an action/comedy film.

As for Sci-Fi... argh... I didn't know the same movie would appear twice.

Congrats, Mark!

The film is more of an action/comedy, but for some reason I thought the screen cap that I took managed to fit the 'drama' sort of mood!

As for Sci-Fi... argh... I didn't know the same movie would appear twice.

Congrats, Mark!
