You are trying to create a mapping using a type, in your case movie, but since version 7.0 the mappings are typeless and you can't create mappings using a type anymore.

You should use the following mapping.

{
  "mappings": {
    "properties": {
      "year": {
        "type": "date"
      }
    }
  }
}

This will create a mapping for the field year with the date date.
