-----------------------------------

createAndShowGUI() can throw an IOException. Replace
public void run() {
                createAndShowGUI();
            }
With:
     public void run(){
                try{
                createAndShowGUI();
                }
                catch (IOException f){System.out.println(f);}
            }

And all will be well :) Doesn't RTP tell you these things? NetBeans 4.0 did right off the bat. Try http://netbeans.org . Ask not what you can do for your IDE, but what your IDE can do for you!

good heavens... never never never create or call swing objects from multiple threads.. (this inlcudes the main-thread)

Rizzix, there's more than just that. He's holding the movie statistics in the same class -- it's a total butchering of the MVC architecture (the whole program is only one class). However, this project is due tomorrow, so right now is not the time to be bringing these things up for him :(
