Now that we've wrecked these tables, let's look at the production_company
and movie
tables:
-
The production company behind
Forrest Gump
movie recently changed their name. They have requested that we update the company name toParamount+
. -
They also requested that you change all homepages for the movies that they produced to the Paramount+ streaming service.
You will have to check the movie_company
table to see which movie ids correspond to the desired production company.
Extra points if you complete this exercise using a JOIN
statement (as opposed to multiple SELECTs).
