IMDB Search
Description from store

Type "imdb " and you can directly search on the Internet Movie Database (IMDb). While typing, search results are immediately displayed. These search results are identical to the results of the search box at the IMDb homepage.

If you press Enter without choosing a suggestion, the full search result page is shown.

Only movies are suggested (no series or TV shows). If you want an option to also see series or TV shows, contact me and I'll add it.

When the omnibox was cooperative, I could type in "I-M" and the site would come up and I could just hit tab. With the extension, I have to type it all out before I can search. As long as I can remember that, it will be fine!

It seems to work exactly like it says it does. Just type imdb press TAB and type what you want to search iMDb.com for. I seemed to have had trouble setting up the search from Omnibox myself. I don't know why. This extension solved my problem. I don't know what I did wrong, but this extension works perfectly, so problem solved!!
