Issue when searching for

Hi Travis,
Just thought I'd let you know that the API can't search for "Aeon Flux". It finds no results despite that being the name on the website. If I search for "Æon Flux", it works and it even works if I search for "On Flux". I noticed that the title of the movie in the URL is "On Flux", so I imagine that might have something to do with it.
Here are some links to the searches:
Maybe it has something to do with this? http://tmdb.lighthouseapp.com/projects/83077/tickets/244-fix-invalid-utf-8-errors
Cheers Michell

Hey Michell,
It's unlikely to be related to the UTF-8 issue I just fixed. I've spent a few minutes looking into this and it's pretty weird. I'm continuing to look into it.

I've discovered the issue and fixed it on the website. I'll get the API pushed with these changes tomorrow.

The fix for this was just pushed. You can give the following queries a try:
There's still probably some cached results on different languages that will clear our over the next hour.
