Here is the discussion I had with Travis Bell at TMDB.

Statuses for Movies: Rumored, Planned, In Production, Post Production, Released, Canceled

Statuses for TV: Returning Series, Planned, In Production, Ended, Canceled, Pilot

The TMDB API allows their discover/tv endpoint to filter based on TV statuses, however, discover/movie doesn't. So some client side filtering would need to be done.

Additionally, the various 'statuses' aren't available at any endpoint so they would need to be hard coded.

I'm interested in contributing, would this be a good first issue for a mid-level developer?

I'll go ahead and take this one

@wesleyem I don't think this will be possible for filtering movies. The status property is only available on the find endpoint and not returned by the discover endpoint. The only way to feasibly do this with Movies is to grab the details for every single movie retrieved by the find endpoint and I don't think we want to do that. Once the with_status property is added to tmdb it will be possible. I'm going to go ahead and reduce the scope to just TV and create another issue for movies

@kage1414 concur. This fell off my scan because I hit that roadblock with the TMDB API.
