I was actually able to fix, or should I say add some better error catching to the IMDB::File modules. Given my level a little bit proud of myself.

I would love to see your source. I know that I've failed to get far with imdb changing over the years.

Looks like WWW::Mechanize is the way to go.

It's been my experience that WWW::Mechanize can't deal with javascript. This site is a 61 k clump of it.

    None of the Mojo stuff understand JavaScript either, if you want that use WWW::Mechanized::Chrome, but you probably don't since you're interested in the data displayed on the site which isn't client side JavaScript.
