Your question and code seems to be relating to Database creation, but the course links are for removing databases. Can you clarify which you are trying to do?

Let's take a look at this challenge then.
Task 2
Update the SQL statement to include the keywords that would stop an error occurring when the
movie_db
doesn't exist.
From our first task, we know that we can do
DROP DATABASE movie_db
to drop the database. This task is an extension of that. The boiler plate syntax for what we are attempting, and you can take a look at the MySQL documentation for [DROP DATABASE syntax] would be:
DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS <database name>
See if that point you in the proper direction, and certainly post back if it does not.
Happy coding,
Ken
