I don't have any id's on the Fxml file and the tutorial's one doesn't have it either, i created FilmeOverview.fxml as AnchorPane and RootLayout as BorderPane, I tried changing the position of the method but it doesn't work, does anyone know how to fix this?

<Menu mnemonicParsing="false" text="Ajuda">

<MenuItem mnemonicParsing="false" text="Sobre" />

</Menu>
</menus>

This is not a duplicate, changing the import doesn't fix it, i still get
Caused by: javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamException: ParseError at [row,col]:[31,3]

You have a couple of issues:
- The FXML doesn't have an import statement for
javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane. - Your
rootLayout.fxmlfile is invalid FXML. You close the BorderPane element with an AnchorPane tag. - You define the contents of the border pane as children, where they are supposed to be defined by position.
Sample valid FXML with the above issues fixed:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane?>
<BorderPane prefHeight="500.0" prefWidth="800.0" xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/8.0.171" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1">
<top>
<MenuBar layoutY="2.0" prefHeight="25.0" prefWidth="800.0">
<menus>
<Menu mnemonicParsing="false" text="Arquivo">
<items>
<MenuItem mnemonicParsing="false" text="Fechar" />
</items>
</Menu>
<Menu mnemonicParsing="false" text="Editar">
<items>
<MenuItem mnemonicParsing="false" text="Deletar" />
</items>
</Menu>
<Menu mnemonicParsing="false" text="Ajuda">
<items>
<MenuItem mnemonicParsing="false" text="Sobre" />
</items>
</Menu>
</menus>
</MenuBar>
</top>
</BorderPane>
As an aside, I recommend downloading Gluon SceneBuilder and using that to edit your FXML.
Also note, some IDEs, such as IntelliJ , include code completion, type checking and syntax checking which would highlight many of the above errors in your document when you load the file into the IDE.
