From the Teacher's Notes of the previous video:

Butterknife has changed annotations again: BindView. This community post has more details. As always, the instructions on the Github project should be up to date and hopefully easy to follow.

***ButterKnife now uses @BindView instead of @InjectView and ButterKnife.bind(this) instead of ButterKnife.inject(this).

Between now and when these videos were made Butterknife changed the annotation and code used to inject views, and while the videos don't reflect this change the challenges does.

So in order to pass this challenge you have to use @BindView instead of @InjectView. Like this:

@BindView(R.id.movieTitle) TextView mTitleLabel;
