Re: Incomplete Information using IMDB Script

Many thanks for your work, MrObama2022!
I updated a large number of movies with your script, however I'm now dangerously close to 500 API calls and I have no idea when the counter is supposed to reset... I had registered in the middle of June, but most of my API calls were after July 15th.
Anyway, I think the script is a success as I didn't notice any particular issues with it. The Cameo/Director Cameo/Director Trademark things are included although they seem to be placed randomly among the rest of the Trivia and not at the end as on the website. I assume that's API's doing, as I can't imagine how or why the script would do that. Doesn't bother me, though, as long as they're included. Spoilers are placed at the end nicely.
A very very minor gripe might be that there's always an extra empty line at the end of Trivia, and when there is no Trivia the field is nonetheless populated with 'IMDB TRIVIA:' title. Nothing I can't deal with, of course, just letting you know.
AKA Titles also seem to work fine, but I was wondering if API returns the country and title type (ie. 'working title' etc.) information. If so, would it be possible to add an option to include that information? It's quite useful to me, although I can certainly manage without it if it's too much work.
