This is a good novel study it makes sense. It looks like you have put alot of effort into it there is no spelling mistakes that I can see. But there is a few things that you can work on like putting capital letters in the right place and on peoples names. I like the colours that you have chosen to put on the movie. The hyperlinks are good and they work right. Great work :) Levi
