Wrong release dates

Hi,
I have a little problem. So the region parameter is awesome ! So I use request like https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/upcoming?api_key=???&language=de&page=1®ion=de and get the movies that are upcoming in Germany. The list seems to have the right data. However it knows that some movies are upcoming in Germany, but on the other side it gives me release dates that are in the past, even with the region parameter.

Region is case sensitive, you'll want to use this:
You'll see the
release_datevalues update with the proper uppercase parameter.Cheers.

Ah ok I see, thank you :) Region is not possible for the movie details, right ? So this https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/331313?api_key=###&language=de®ion=DE still returns the US region release date.

Correct but that's because it's trivial to call /release_dates with
append_to_response. You can then filter the data locally however you like.Cheers.
