WARNING Matrix spoilers incoming for those who've not seen it yet.
Title makes it pretty clear. (P.S Sorry - my last suggestion for today guys, promise)

I absoloutely love the "Fanart" view in XBMC, I use it all the time, however it unfortunately pulls the entire plot for most movies, frequently containing spoilers.

Here's an example for The Matrix http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0133093/
Quote:"A computer hacker learns from mysterious rebels about the true nature of his reality and his role in the war against its controllers"
(That would be perfect)

Instead XBMC has pulled for me this:
Quote:"Thomas A. Anderson is a man living two lives. By day he is an average computer programmer and by night a hacker known as Neo. Neo has always questioned his reality, but the truth is far beyond his imagination. Neo finds himself targeted by the police when he is contacted by Morpheus, a legendary computer hacker branded a terrorist by the government. Morpheus awakens Neo to the real world, a ravaged wasteland where most of humanity have been captured by a race of machines that live off of the humans' body heat and electrochemical energy and who imprison their minds within an artificial reality known as the Matrix. As a rebel against the machines, Neo must return to the Matrix and confront the agents: super-powerful computer programs devoted to snuffing out Neo and the entire human rebellion."
Not only is this spoilerific, it's also really long to read, the short one is much easier.

I don't know how the scraper works in XBMC but I'm wondering if the short one is difficult to pull, due to the fact it doesn't appear to have it's own URL? Unlike this
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0133093/plotsummary/ (full plotsummary URL for Matrix)
Is there any way to force XBMC to only ever have the short summary? It really would be a huge improvement.

(Considering a huge saving of screenspace would be gone, might be possible to list the top 4 cast members in the space instead, which I'd much much prefer too?)
