I would love to see a way to specify more fields being returned for certain related sub items.
Specifically, I'm looking for the movie items that are returned when querying for a person including movie_credits. I store these movies locally and display them in a list and would like to display a few more fields like vote_average
as well as the genres
. At the moment I'm making a movie request on each of these movies just to get this data.
Also, over time, rating is probably one of the few things that changes quite often (in the beginning at least) and it would lead to a mass reduction of requests required to keep the data I'm displaying accurate.
Are there any plans on introducing more fields or at least the possibility to request them?
Thanks for a great API!
I can go more into detail what my app's purpose is if required.

Hi rndstr,
There is some potential work to be done with replicating the "movie search item" structure over to the movie credit responses but that won't bring in genres. You'll always have to go out an request individual movie records for that. The open ticket for this is here.
Cheers.

Sorry for the bump but I thought I'd mention that all of our person credit calls are returning the standard media objects now. Examples can be found in the API docs.
