Replying to [comment:1 mrandtx at yahoo.com]:
> Wouldn't it be better to patch this where $host is defined, rather than
where it is used?
This won't work. IMDB is still referring to the old URL in its HTML code.
The old URL gets then redirected to the new one. We therefore need the old
one to parse the HTML code and the new for the actual link.
I think the cleaner solution would be to follow the redirection but this
woud need an additional request.
