update:
yeah man that did it

added the last code line:
$date_added = date($this->mdb->config['options']['date_format'], strtotime($this->data['DATEADD']));
$tpl->add_var("\$MOVIE[DATEADD]", $date_added);
$tpl->add_var("\$MOVIE[HREF]", $this->mdb->get_link(array("NUM" => $this->data['NUM'])));
$tpl->add_callback("\$MOVIE[DESCRIPTION]", "_callback_description", 1);
$tpl->add_subtpl("TRANSLATEDTITLES", $this->_templates_translatedtitles());
$tpl->add_subtpl("ACTORS", $this->_templates_names("ACTORS", "ACTOR", $this->actors));
$tpl->add_subtpl("DIRECTORS", $this->_templates_names("DIRECTORS", "DIRECTOR", $this->directors));
$tpl->add_subtpl("PRODUCERS", $this->_templates_names("PRODUCERS", "PRODUCER", $this->producers));
$tpl->add_var("\$MOVIE[RATING]", (round($this->data['RATING'])));
return $tpl;
}
and now it works perfectly


made my own star images as you can see, and now they show perfectly without me having to change the table settings in phpMyAdmin
