These 2 dates has nothing in common.

  • The year listed on the page of the movie is the primary release year.
  • The date listed on the search page is one of the release dates chosen based on your geolocation and language.

That's not at all clear, and also just wrong behaviour. It shouldn't happen.

Our site is working like that. This is not specific to this movie.

Showing the wrong year is entirely useless.

This is not a wrong year, but a perfectly valid release date near you.

A) Besides title the most useful information for identifying a movie is it's original release year.

B) The location of the year given isn't mentioned, in searches or on pages.

So there's no way of knowing, apparently short of complaining, *why* the year is wrong.

Based on search results it appears that either TMDB doesn't have a movie, or that information from other sources is incorrect.

C) In any case it makes no sense that searches and pages would be inconsistent.

Either the original year or the local year is correct for a user, but not arbitrarily one or the other depending on which page you're on.

D) Geo-location is a poor way to determine appropriate content for a user, especially when determining geo-location is a hack and not a standard.

E) And last but not least: there is no way to override this arbitrary and unhelpful "feature".
