Yes, Rich-Text is complicated, but in the end it's a markup language like HTML.
If someone's interested and wants to know more, here you can find the specifications:

I exported a draft in Word as Rich-Text file, did some modifications and copied and pasted the appropriate parts to the template.
I note that it would not be difficult to modify this to delimit the fields with tabs.
That's quite simple, even without changing the template, just use the search and replace function in Word:
Search for ") " and replace with ")^t"
If you want to exclude the bold font type for that (to ensure movie titles with parenthesis stay without tabstops), you can do so: In the search and replace dialog click on the format button and choose "Font", where you can advise word to search and replace only text that's not bold.
It also should not be that complicated to export to Rich-Text as table directly. The only thing I cannot export to a Rich-Text file are the posters, because they would have to be embedded directly into the file. External image files don't help here:
