Movie.getImages
The Movie.getImages method is used to retrieve all of the backdrops and posters for a particular movie. This is useful to scan for updates, or new images if that's all you're after. No point on calling Movie.getInfo if you're only interested in images, right?
Example URL
If you're searching for the images based on TMDb ID:
http://api.themoviedb.org/2.1/Movie.getImages/en/xml/APIKEY/550
If you're searching for the images based on IMDB ID:
http://api.themoviedb.org/2.1/Movie.getImages/en/xml/APIKEY/tt0137523
Options
Language: IETF Language Tag, e.g. en-US
Type: Type can be xml, yaml or json.
API Key: The API key we supplied you with for your account.
ID: The TMDb ID OR IMDB ID (starting with tt) of the movie you are searching for.
The Movie.getImages method is language and locale independent.
