[QUOTE="s7oneyuk, post: 285436, member: 62692"] Sutekh, in fact - no need to strip the year as the title to search that is passed into the script has the year already stripped from it as you say. As gamejester points out, "Bruiser" simply returns some weird results from IMDB - but one correct entry from Movie-Xml. The more i look into it - the more the details in IMDB are in-accurate. The plot summary on the front page is lacking in much content for a lot of films - and if you drill into the full plot summary you will get multiple entries posted by different authors. might be worth looking the film up in movie-xml (which also includes the imdb reference number) and if no results are found - then looking up from imdb (but actually perfoming some checks to ensure that the film name actually contains the name of the thing you are searching for (aka "Bruiser" ;)).
