Search bar suggestions doesn't list movie

The search bar suggestions is a bit buggy.

For example if I type in the movie "Asterix and Obelix Mansion of the Gods".

It shows 0 suggestions. I have to do the search in order to see the movie in the search results.

Then for the movie "It". If I include the year in the search "It 2017" the movie "It" doesn't appear in the suggestions at all.

When I put "Mulholland Drive" into the search bar, it shows me "Mulholland Dr" as the suggestion which is the old original title and not the one that appears on the imdb page as the main movie title.

When I search "Destino" or "Destino 2003". The movie short Destino is not suggested at all. I have to go to the search results to find it.

Same with "A Matter of Loaf and Death". Doesn't appear in the suggestions.

Would be nice if the search suggestions was improved to resolve these issues.

It actually does find Asterix and Obelix Mansion of the Gods; it just doesn't display the result in English:


It shows, but not when 2017 is included:

In fact, It 2017 removes all results with IT as the title.

Also agree with the Mulholland Drive result you report.

Regarding Destino - shorts rarely show in search bar results. That's been true for a long time (perhaps always).

That also explains the lack of a proper suggestion for A Matter of Loaf and Death. The odd part: it does suggest a making-of featurette classified as a short, but perhaps since it has no runtime, it does display:
