Hi I want that when I search a movie in my app. Every time that I write a letter the app suggest me movies. The correct way is to send a Get method every time that text is changed?
Also... Can I search movies that have released? For example I search for Avatar and I get Avatar 2, Avatar 3 that the release date is in the future.
Thanks!

Hi ckarmy,
Our default search method supports this as the default behaviour, for example:
You could, although most autocomplete UI's will be a little bit smarter about it and watch for gaps in typing and only send the typed text after so many milliseconds. A good example of this is the component we use here on TMDb: http://twitter.github.io/typeahead.js/
We don't support any additional filtering in text searches aside from
year
. Ie.There is no way to exclude movies that haven't been released yet.
