Exactly my thoughts. Cognitive stagnation, inflexibility, absence of basic planning and analysis, religious frames they put themselves in etc etc all these are the factors that don't allow these individuals to break class levels up or even stay on the same level.

I haven't checked the code, but if you are actually searching and parsing IMDB.com then you are violating IMDB's user agreements. There are certain titles that are not available for you to use. However.. IMDB allows you to download and use most of it's contents: http://www.imdb.com/interfaces

Instead of downloading and parsing available data and reinventing the wheel, I would also recommend using 3rd party free APIs like http://www.omdbapi.com/

Just a thought...

This is a very overacted summary of a very interesting thought. I don't think it should be down-voted but rather explored. I might be giving you more credit than it is socially appropriate for this kind of statement, but it definitely caught my attention and triggered cognitive mini-explosion :)
"appears to be female - 100%" "does not have a beard - 99.2%" :D
