I've written an IMDB script to get movie infos from MYmovies.it - Il cinema dalla parte del pubblico. Al infos are retrieved in italian.
Compared to my previous yahoo.it script you get a good resolution image for every movie (at least 500 x 700).
The script also collect the following infos:
- Title
- Year
- Director
- Cast
- Tagline
- Plot Outline
- Description (extended plot)
- User Rating
- MPAA Rating (an average between the vote of Morandini and other italian movie dictionaries)
- Runtime
- Genre
The script does not collect writing credits infos since they're not provided by the site (I think you can live without it).
My advice is to use this script as master and the yahoo.it script as secondary one.
Usage: place the script in %mediaportalroot%/scripts/imdb/.
If you want you can include this script in mediaportal distribution.
Please let me know of any bug you find.

27/07/2009 -> Fixed script not working anymore due to a mymovies.it site change
