The Movie Database Support

Hello! I'm pretty new here and I wanted to ask if I can sort the upcoming movies by release date? First, I get the data for upcoming movies from GET /movie/upcoming, but the query is kinda messed up. I found out I can sort queries from GET /discover/movie, but it gives me some 80s-90s movies and I can't figure out how can I put my query with upcoming movies so I can sort them? Thank you!

Hi @martoraneca,

I think I answered this question in this post here: https://www.themoviedb.org/talk/5a3bb25ec3a368148f0959d0

If you mean something else let me know but I think it's the same.

Im trying to sort the upcoming movies api by release date by a certain time period- for example - films that are coming in the next 3 months etc

Is this possible?

Yes, it is possible.
Use the release_date.gte and release_date.lte filter parameters.
So you can specify a time interval for your Region, your country.
