The Movie Database Support

I would like to know if it is problematic to supplement or override the data provided by the API with custom data that users or administrators enter in our application. For instance, we may want to store extra attributes (not provided by TMDB) about the actors in our own database such as height, nationality, popularity ratings, etc. As well as load in alternate headshots/ photos for certain actors if we do not like the default one provided. We would also like to be able to mix in profiles of amateur actors that are not in the API.

Hi ispangler20,

No, I don't see any reason why it would problematic. The only thing we ask for is to make sure you still attribute TMDb as the source of whatever data and/or images you use.

Cheers.
