jeremy i'm not sure if this answers your question or not, but in the past when I have scraped IMDB and then needed to make adjustments to the title, in Library Mode I pulled up the context menu for that particular movie and selected "Edit Title."
Not sure if that's available when you're in File mode (XBMC is being used right now so I can't check), or if that's what you're trying to accomplish...

You could scan your library, let IMDB do it's thing
Make all the corrections you want so it is how you want it to appear.
Export your library.
This will give you a big xml file with all of your library in it.
Chop up that file into individual moviename.nfo files and put them with your movies.
That will give you all of the imdb info, your corrected titles and the ability to set your own genres/ratings/thumbnails etc.
It's painful and slow but once its done, its done (until they change the nfo file layout after a database schema change)

nfo's wont break - thats the beauty of xml. worst case you will be missing some tags.
plus you can use the nfo app instead of chopping it up manually.

fine, if you REALLY want to argue. sure, the cast tags might have broken at that point but the rest didnt. the nfo file didnt crash the app, you just got some bad info. in any case i dont feel a tiny weeny bit sorry for you.
