it seems the imdb api has been taken down entirely- there is no mention of it on their site and any connections to the site time out. omdb provides the exact same functionality, and i have tested these changes and confirmed them working on my own installation.

Just noticed this over the weekend as well, can confirm these changes also work on my end.

Noticed this as well. I don't think the original url was imdb official based on comments in the following stackoverflow page. Here's what appears to be a statement about the name change by the author as well as description of the official api in an answer above.

Url change worked for me too.
