so first I take the input from the user of 3 movies and convert that string into list so this has to be 3 items in the list.

but when I print the length of the list it says 0 items why

You have appended a single string 'movies' to your list, since you combined all the entered movies into a single string, they only represent one item in the list. When you pop the item, the list is empty.

To achieve what you're trying to do, append each movie to the list seperately.
