Release dates for each langue / country (preferred way IMDb)

Hi,

Your app is really handy and beautiful. I finished setting up the webpage. After adding the first movies, which I would like to see in theaters, I noticed a problem regarding release dates.

Situation

In the .env-File I set the language to DE since I life in Germany. I watch most of the movies and TV shows in English but it's handy to get the German title. This works great!

But the flox-calendar is still using the international release dates.

Example where this results in a problem:

Most of the movies in Germany are getting released at Thursdays but in the USA at Fridays.

Seccond example:

The movie "Richard Jewell" was delayed in Germany due to Covid-19 and is now getting released at the 2nd of July.
In the Flox-Calendar-tab it's shown for the 13th of December 2019 since that's what the TMDb says.

When I manually query the TMDb-API is says 2020-03-19 for Germany. Since the TMDb is maintained by the community the release dates might not be correct.

        {
            "iso_3166_1": "DE",
            "release_dates": [
                {
                    "certification": "12",
                    "iso_639_1": "",
                    "note": "",
                    "release_date": "2020-03-19T00:00:00.000Z",
                    "type": 3
                },
                {
                    "certification": "12",
                    "iso_639_1": "",
                    "note": "",
                    "release_date": "2020-08-06T00:00:00.000Z",
                    "type": 5
                }
            ]
        }

Type 3 is cinema-release, type 5 blueray

When using the IMDB it will always show the correct release date.
If using the IMDB is not possibly, it would be nice to have the option to manually edit the release date in the Flox-calendar for correcting dates.

Thank you in advance for you help.
Regards :)

Hey, sorry for the late response. I will close this issue because i will completely redevelop Flox. In the next version, i will include something like this! :)

No worries and have fun devolving it ;) I am excited to see more!
