I'm using the API to lookup movies in my app, and am counting on the first result being the correct match (it's a data import operation, in which the user provides the movie title and year). I'm not understanding the ordering for one of my test cases, though. If I search for "Batman: The Dark Knight Returns", year 2013, "Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part 2" comes up as the first result. Is it because it has a higher popularity value? It would seem the exact match on title should win. This is the call I'm making:

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=__key__&query=Batman:%20The%20Dark%20Knight%20Returns&year=2013&page=1

This is the JSON returned:
