Wrong metadata result

This movie cannot be correctly scraped in Plex, whether searching by name or using the TMDB ID. It refers to the third installment of a movie series. In the discussion link provided (Reported Problem for Be My Master - Discuss Be My Master — The Movie Database (TMDB)), the TMDB administrator states that this is an issue with Plex. Please assist in investigating the matter.

You will either need to enable “Adult content” in the properties of the Plex library, or match the movie using its TMDB ID number.

“tmdb-592742” and “tmdb-592741” are returning the same results in Plex, but they are two different movies on TMDB.

The movies with the IDs “tmdb-487672” and “tmdb-630656” are having a similar problem. In Plex, even though they have different IDs, the Plex agent is identifying them as the same movie.

This is a problem with TMDB. Someone has linked The Death and Return of Superman (2019) — The Movie Database (TMDB) to this IMDb record https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11043546 which then gets automatically forwarded to https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7167686/
The whole mess was probably caused by the release of a combined version of the two movies.

The best solution would be to request the change or removal of the IMDb link on Reign of the Supermen (2019) — The Movie Database (TMDB)
This needs to be done via the TMDB forums, as the field has been locked and cannot be changed by a regular user.

I just got word that the original issue should be fixed within the next 24 hours.
