Hi aboduo,
The only theatre list we maintain is our
/now-playing
method. You can read about it in the documentation here.Reply by joemicelli

I would like you to reconsider implementing a top box office method. This is the most important information for finding movies to go and see for the user; which is also how we make money. Now-playing method returns way too much noise that no one really cares about. Currently i have to down load all of the data and compute the top 20 myself which is slow. I assume that you have a database that could easily make that query? This would really help us out.
Thanks,
Joe

We don't currently have any box office data. Now playing is a list ordered by popularity, of movies with a release date within the last 3 weeks including this week.
Until we have the data to differentiate between a theatrical release and not, this is the best we can do. The ticket for this is here.

Hi guys,
While we still don't support specifying a country release filter on discover (this will be coming), we do now support multiple release dates per country and type. You can read more about his here.
There's a new API method that supports returning this data which is documented here.
Cheers.
