Movie genre search result returns movies with identical ratings

Hey there,
I just discovered that the pages for a genre search are organized by vote average. Here's an example call:
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?api_key=YOURAPI&with_genres=28|12&release_date.lte=2014-04-12&release_date.gte=1985-04-12&page=2
Rank lowers as the pages go on, with each page's movies all sharing the same vote average.
Is there a better way to get movies that aren't the same vote average?

Hi greetingshuman,
You can use any of the sort options that /discover supports. They are documented in the docs.
