[QUOTE="fforde, post: 366107, member: 52082"] I am curious what the majority of people prefer. There is currently an alternate IMDb script floating around that pulls short plot summaries rather than the longer ones that are pulled with the standard script. Which do you prefer? Please keep in mind this is for the IMDb scraper [i]only[/i]. A few examples: [SIZE="6"][COLOR="DarkRed"]Back to the Future[/COLOR][/SIZE] [b]Short[/b] In 1985, Doc Brown invents time travel; in 1955, Marty McFly accidentally prevents his parents from meeting, putting his own existence at stake. [b]Long[/b] Marty McFly, a typical American teenager of the Eighties, is accidentally sent back to 1955 in a plutonium-powered DeLorean "time machine" invented by slightly mad scientist. During his often hysterical, always amazing trip back in time, Marty must make certain his teenage parents-to-be meet and fall in love - so he can get back to the future. [SIZE="6"][COLOR="DarkRed"]Aliens[/COLOR][/SIZE] [b]Short[/b] The planet from Alien (1979) has been colonized, but contact is lost. This time, the rescue team has impressive firepower, enough? [b]Long[/b] After colonist, Ellen Ripley survived her disastrous ordeal. Nobody believed her story about the "Aliens" being on the planet LV-426. However, approximately 50 years later, the colony on LV-426 was completely destroyed. The government has decided to send Ripley out of cryostasis and to aid a team of tough, rugged space marines into the desolate planet to find out if there are aliens, or survivors. But, what Ripley will begin to realize that her worst nightmare is about to come true. [SIZE="6"][COLOR="DarkRed"]The Matrix[/COLOR][/SIZE] [b]Short[/b] A computer hacker learns from mysterious rebels about the true nature of his reality and his role in the war against the controllers of it. [b]Long[/b] During the year 1999, a man named Thomas Anderson lives an ordinary life. He makes a living illegally mostly by computer hacking. Then one day he meets another man by the man of Morpheus. After their friendship develops Morpheus shows him that world Thomas is living is make-believe. At first Thomas does not believe him, but then is shown evidence and also meets with a like-minded woman named Trinity. He is slowly updated from the time the world was disintegrated and wasted, devoid of all natural resources. Then in this wasteland, came android-like humans, machine-made, who enslaved the remainder of the humans. In order to create the perfect world, a fake world is created to fool the humans into believing that everything is alright in their world.
