[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 1085810, member: 18896"] This is freaking insanity from Amazon/IMDb. The AKA page for '300: Rise of an Empire' looks like this: [INDENT][B]Also Known As (AKA)[/B] (original title) 300: O Início de Um Império (original title) 300: Rise of an Empire[/INDENT] That is why IMDb+ is failing, because the 1st reference of "(original title)" should be the actual original title, in this case the English title for an English movie. That first one should be "(translated title)" or "(localized title)", but not freaking madness and claiming it to be the original title. Of course they are not gonna fix it, so will have to figure out a workaround. I guess for now I can adjust the regular expression to get the '2nd original title' if an extra entry exists. Can you please confirm for me that on the AKA page that when Amazon/IMDb goes bonkers that they are at least consistent and that the 2nd "(original title)" is the English one? Check for like 10 movies, preferably find some that do not have a localized title, so that they will only have a single "(original title)" entry. Regular Expression changes like this can quickly fix one thing and break another, so will need a lot of testing. [/QUOTE]
