Answer 1

Apostrophes are often used to show possession of one or more things.
When it is for one thing, it is correct to use "'s".
If for more than one thing, or for the possession of a word that ends in an s, "s'" is correct.

Examples:
One object:
The book is her's.

More than one:
It is the Millers' house.

Answer 2

With that said, which one do you believe is correct? (:

Answer 9

Sorry, something totally weird happened with os.. a glitch or something.
Anyway..
So, if you are using an apostrophe to show the possession of one object, use "'s".

Examples:
The book is \(\bf\color{lime}{her's}\).
\(\bf\color{lime}{Maria's}\) dress is beautiful.
\(\bf\color{lime}{Luke's}\) car is really cool.
Our \(\bf\color{lime}{teacher's}\) shirt looked really nice.

Answer 11

Is the movie a singular object? Or is it more than one (plural)?

Answer 12

I think it is singular

Answer 13

Yes. So it would follow the singular object rule for apostrophes that I just posted above, meaning the apostrophe would be where?

Yes. (:

Answer 16

Wait, no.
It is 's.
Movie's.
