IMDB Related Question... or something

[chris hoppus]

Well I need some kind of feature that allows you to search IMDB, or some database. That'll display one of the following.

* DVD cover
* Year

... that's all i can think of. Anything that'll specify any details on a movie.

How would i go abouts doing this. Any ideas?

I have send a private message with the download url of the script to chris hoppus.
but remember imdb may ban your IP if you make too many queries, so you should consider caching the results..
