Hello,

I've updated the way imdb.pl retrives posters from both impawards and
Amazon. The following things were changed:
- fixed redirects for some movies on impawards
- when searching Amazon, try searching for main movie title first, and
if nothing is found, search for informal name
- better handling for when locating posters on amazon. Check each
returned product name (movie name) and see if the title we are
searching for is actually within it.

I've ran it though my movie collection and it seems to work alot
better now especially for posters that can only be found on Amazon.

If anyone finds or sees any problems, let me know and i'll fix it as
soon as i can.
