Search results are not localized anymore

Since a few weeks (I think the whole search function was changed) the search results are not localized anymore.
I'm lgged in with my account and see the german flag in the top riught corner. When I search for "mensch dave" the right movie is shown in the results. But it is shown with its original title "Meet Dave" instead of "Mensch, Dave!".

The flag is not representative of your language, but the country. Go into your account preferences and make sure the "Preferred Language" field is set to "German".
I just did and upon searching "Meet Dave" I see the german title of "Mensch, Dave!".

Still doesn't work for me.
The preferred Language is already set to German. I even switch back and forth to English und logged out/in. I also tried Firefox (instead of Chrome.
btw: When I click on the movie top see the movie-page averything is in german. So the preferred language setting does work in general. Its just the results page wich dosn't work properly.
