Get trending movies or TV shows.

This tool retrieves trending entertainment data without side effects. While categorically a Read operation (low blast radius for typical usage), the high severity reflects that aggregated entertainment data endpoints can be abused for scraping at scale, enumeration attacks, or denial-of-service if rate-limiting is weak.
