API call to get movie listing and tagline
afiŝita de moviebuff2000STAFFMOD je Februaro 17 2015 je 2:41 PM
Hi. I am trying to use the API to get the results of searching for movies by title. Is there a way to get the "tagline" associated with each result?
e.g. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/9398-zoolander shows a tagline of "3% Body Fat. 1% Brain Activity." I would like to get this information via the REST API.
Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hi moviebuff2000,
You can get the tagline with the primary movie info, i.e.;
We won't ever support this in a search (or list) result.
Cheers.

It seems like this would be really useful to have in search. Should we, instead, make a request for each result? Fairly often, that will create 50-100 extra requests.

Hi joshjordan,
Yes, if you need extra information that is not returned in the default list methods, you'll have to go and query it separately.
Cheers.
