This is outside the scope of this blog but I want this to be available to the public. I have been working with another developer to create a php script that scrapes Rottentomatoes for information via the API. This is free to use, redistribute and modify. The source code can be downloaded here: http://www.trentflix.com/downloads/tomatoscraper.zip You can also test it out here: http://www.trentflix.com/tomatoscraper but it is limited to 50 titles/ IMDB id's. It will export certain information to a .csv file for use with excel or to import into a database.
Thanks to renancarmo for helping author this script and to Abhinay Rathore for developing a similar project and making it free.
I wanted this done to help with my statistical analysis, I am also working on a script that scrapes IMDB and Metacritic but that requires the use of Extreme Movie Manager . I might go into how I organize and keep track of my 3,000+ movies and 200+ TV Series collection at some point. It is quite the task to keep all the information accurate, up to date and readily available to view on any/every device.
