Really excellent use of comments to describe your functions!

Good addition of the test. And for completeness, we could test the other attributes as well ("genre", "rating")
| # create dictionary with movie details | ||
| new_movie = {} | ||
| keys = ["title", "genre", "rating"] | ||
| for key, det in zip(keys, dets): |
| for key, det in zip(keys, dets): | ||
| new_movie[key] = det | ||
| # handle missing movie details | ||
| if any(x == None for x in dets): |

nice concise use of any() and this list checking syntax!

Could this check have occurred earlier in the function, in order to be more efficient and skip unused code?

Also, good check for None; other cases to validate could include a blank string, ""

This code passes the tests, but as an aside it contains an "anti-pattern" that is important to be aware of. An element of the list that is being iterated over is being removed inside the for loop. This is generally considered bad practice and can leave you open to problems in more complex code. One solution could be to copy the data you get from "movie in updated_data['watchlist']" into a variable that's not going to change as you modify updated_data.
| ratings = [] | ||
| for movie in janes_data['watched']: | ||
| ratings.append(movie['rating']) | ||
| if len(ratings) == 0: |
| if len(genres) == 0: | ||
| return None | ||
| # collect highest frequency movie genre | ||
| popular_genre = statistics.mode(genres) |

Good use of an established specialized library function

Good solution! Can you think of how sets might be used for an even simpler implementation? Though, I do think it's useful to have gone through the foundations and understanding what might be going on behind the scenes with sets.
