MJ - The following proc allows you to get some basic information about a movie from IMDB. It can probably be improved upon, but it's a start.
package require http
package require tdom
proc imdb {input} {
set ua "Lynx/2.8.5rel.1 libwww-FM/2.14 SSL-MM/1.4.1 OpenSSL/0.9.7e"
http::config -useragent $ua
# don't manually build query strings http can do it better
set query [http::formatQuery btnI "I'm Feeling Lucky" q "imdb $input"]
set http [http::geturl http://www.google.com/search?$query]
# get HTTP header info
upvar 0 $http arr
array set meta $arr(meta)
# redirection url
set url $meta(Location)
# cleanup
http::cleanup $http
set http [http::geturl $url]
set html [http::data $http]
http::cleanup $http
set doc [dom parse -html $html]
set title [[$doc selectNodes {/html/head/title[1]}] asText]
set outline [$doc selectNodes {//div[h5="Plot Summary:"]/text()}]
if {$outline eq {}} {

}
set outline [string trim [$outline asText]]

$doc delete
set votes [string map {, {}} [lindex [split $votes] 0]]
return [list title $title rating $rating votes $votes outline $outline]
}
