Problem with searching titles
Hi! I have an issue with searching titles in my language. I will use «Ультрамен» («Ultraman» in English) as an example of this problem.
If you start typing «Ультрамен» in the «Search IMDb» bar, all different movies and series with «Ультрамен» in the title start appearing, for example Shin Ultraman, Ultraman Z etc. When you click «Search» button, it shows me only exact title matches: titles that are named simply «Ультрамен» and nothing more. Even if you click «More title matches», it still shows only 2 results. When I search «Ultraman» in English, it also shows me all different results when typing in the «Search» bar, only media exactly named «Ultraman» when clicking the «Search» button, but all different series and movies when clicking «More title matches». May I ask, why is that? Thank you in advance.

Hello @Allosaurus,
We've tried to reproduce this problem; however, when we search either with "Ultraman" or "Ультрамен" we get multiple name matches (not only exact name matches as you have referenced).
https://www.imdb.com/find?s=tt&q=%D0%A3%D0%BB%D1%8C%D1%82%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BC%D0%B5%D0%BD
Could you please click on that link and confirm if you see multiple results or only exact name matches?
Thanks in advance!

Hello! Unfortunately, when I click the link you gave me, it still shows me only 2 exact matches. I knew it's not supposed to work that way.
