It looks like you have your ordering criteria reversed:
SELECT * FROM movies ORDER BY year ASC, title ASC;
Since ascending is the default, you can probably also shorten the query like this:
SELECT * FROM movies ORDER BY year, title;

I suspect you're referencing the same query these people have here, you can reference any of these for more information: https://teamtreehouse.com/community/order-movies-with-the-release-year-ascending-with-the-title-in-alphabetical-order-challenge-task-2-of-2-error
