Is there a pattern to the file names you are working with? The key is
to find a pattern and write code to work with that pattern.

If the pattern requires a lot of heuristics, then it's going to be
more difficult to do, but not impossible.

For a example, with your previous example, how would you know when the
move name ends and the meta data begins? It might be possible to keep
an array (or a hash) of the meta data, _split_ the file name on some
delimiter (such as a dot) and _filter_ out items that are contained in
the array (or hash).
