Michael Laundon

Producer · Born June 1, 1981 (45) · UK

Born on the south coast of England, Michael Laundon has always enjoyed a passion for cinema. During his youth, he made many short films with friends and always knew this was his world. A decision not to begin university after being accepted to study Film & Media proved wise, as Michael founded World of Books in 2002. Over the next 16 years, World of Books would become the largest online buyer and seller of used books globally while simultaneously raising millions of pounds for charity. After selling a majority interest in World of Books, Laundon has transitioned his entrepreneurial pursuits towards M2 MediaPost ("M2"). Away from business, Laundon enjoys football (European), cycling, reading, photography, and spending time with family.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
