Hello together,

when filtering in discover/movie with specified watch_region and release_type, the filter works as expected, but the returned field release_date seems to be the primary_release_date instead of the release_date filtered by watch_region and release_type.

Example:

Query: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?include_adult=false&include_video=false&language=de-DE&page=2&release_date.gte=2023-10-15&sort_by=popularity.desc&watch_region=DE&with_release_type=3

Result:

...
...
{
      "adult": false,
      "backdrop_path": "/hb0BeFvZNx2zLGWwuwENOIVeK1U.jpg",
      "genre_ids": [

      ],
      "id": 792293,

      "video": false,
      "vote_average": 6.6,
      "vote_count": 79
    },

It's correct that the movie is included since the release_date in Germany (DE) for release_type 3 is the 2023-11-02.

Based on the documantation thats says: "The date returned will be the first date based on your query (ie. if a with_release_type is specified). It's important to note the order of the release types that are used. Specifying 2|3 would return the limited theatrical release date as opposed to 3|2 which would return the theatrical date", I am expecting the release_date from Germany for release_type 3 in the JSON.

However the received date is 2023-09-15, which is the primary_release_date

Is this behaviour intended or a bug?

Thanks in advance

Christian
