As always, please take this project and make it your own. I have done some basic styling for you to get going. This is not a tutorial on styling, it is more to practise your database management skills, so please go wild on the styling yourselves :D! I would love to see what you have made!!

Nice work! Just one little thing, it looks like you have put up the links in wrong order (movie data link's in place of finished project link) :-)
