Wrong movie data returned

Bug Description

I've had Elisa scan my computer for videos but it seems to have problems finding the right imdb data for the movies.

The movies it had problems with are "Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy" and "I Am Legend". The files are named accordingly to the movie titles, however in Elisa both show up as "Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy".

I have entered both filenames on imdb.com as search terms and the correct results were delivered which narrows it down to some internal problem of deciding wether the movie is already in the list or not...

philipp@booster:~$ elisa --version
Launcher core version: 0.5.32
Current core version: 0.5.33
Elisa version 0.5.33

Stock install from the launchpad repos.

We don't support imdb (yet). Movies lookup is done on themoviedb.org
A new UI to allow the user to change video categories (manually) is on
the works. See:
