FileBot

I was trying to run FileBot on the "Up (2009)" movie (http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/14160-up).

However, FileBot is unable to match the file to the correct movie, it only suggests "Falling Up (2009)" and "Up in the Air (2009)".

I tried searching for "Up (2009)" in TMDb, and the results do NOT contain "Up (2009)" http://www.themoviedb.org/search?query=Up+%282009%29
However, if I search for "Up", they do. http://www.themoviedb.org/search?query=Up

I sent TMDb an email about this, and they said that their search engine does not support the movie year, and I'm guessing that FileBot's search string includes the year.

Can we have FileBot strip the year from the end of the movie name when it searches TMDb?

Actually, it looks like the TMDb search is able to filter the search by year. We could convert "Up (2009)" to "Up y:2009" http://www.themoviedb.org/search?query=up+y%3A2009

Actually it works fine for almost all cases. Though there is odd exceptions. And filebot already has work arounds to search without year if with year doesn't work.

Good to know it's officially not supported though. Pretty sure that y:2014 syntax didn't exist back when I built movie mode.

I'm trying this with r2209+ but this could change various behaviors in unexpected ways:

I'm gonna push a new jar tomorrow so please test that thoroughly.
