Movie showtimes doesn't work for México #6

Open spenap opened 12 years ago

In some countries (at least México), movie showtimes doesn't work:

This is a bit difficult to solve. Currently, only Google Showtimes are used, and their results are adapted to fit better on display. It seems that they don't offer their services everywhere, so alternative ones should be used.

It seems that Yahoo Movies provides info in México. Some pluggable mechanism should be done, so it's easy to add different backends, preferably without having to update the whole application.
