What about, "Dry land is not a myth! I have seen it!" While that quote is tied to the 1990 film water world, that line is never actually spoken in the movie
Then you haven't met anyone who hasn't watched the film, and makes the assumption based on "normal" underdog films. Or people who just don't commit films to memory.
When Disney buys MGM in ten years, they'll make a "Rocky: Special Edition" where they'll edit the movie so that he *does* win in the end! Also, there'll be Ewoks included during the end celebration.
That must only be people born after the year 2000 that think that and have literally never seen a single scene on the many many many making stuff promotions they had when these movies were coming out. Like in almost every interview they said they had to pause production for that Trex to dry it off because the fake rain (and sometimes real) kept making it act funny.
If they had tied Rose’ lifejacket under the doorframe, it would’ve supported them both, as demonstrated by Mythbusters. But of course, figuring that out and actually doing it under those conditions would be pretty unthinkable.
You want to try thinking that clearly and analytically when you've just escaped a harrowing, life threatening situation, and then thrown into another harrowing, life threatening situation involving temperatures so cold that they begin to impair judgment in seconds? "I know, let's engineer this piece of random unevenly distributed flotsam to sustain and balance our weight!" Not generally how things work when panic and the cold are both shutting your brain down.
Actually, "Mirror Mirror on the wall" is the literal translation from the German original (Spieglein, Spieglein and der Wand). Both are correct, from a certain point of view.
@@rickyhood8213 No, but I'm not sure the quote is a reference to the movie instead of the actual fairytale. In my language the quote is "spiegeltje, spiegeltje aan de wand", which is from the original fairytale.

The Gremlins "after midnight" debacle is more the fact that, apart from midnight, every hour of the day IS after midnight. So when do you feed the Mogwai?
@@jocelyndeguise you know what, that’s a damn good question. I’ve may have thought about it probably once, but because I love the movie so much I didn’t dwell on it.

The Dollars trilogy is all connected, that doesn't mean all the actors played the same characters. Although, I'm pretty Sure Good Bad and Ugly (last filmed, but chronologically first) shows Clint Eastwoods character slowly get individual peices of the attire he ends up wearing in Fistful of Dollars. By the end of Good Bad and Ugly, he's wearing the exact same outfit as his character in Fistful of Dollars Edit: Clint Eastwoods character literally wears the exact same outfit in all 3 movies
For people thinking Rocky won in the first movie, the confusion could be because Rocky does beat Apollo in Rocky II. Thanks for pointing out Jack and Rose did try to share the frame, but it almost flipped over.
Also because it's cited as one of the best sports underdog movies ever, so for someone who's not really into that kind of movie, it's easy to assume that he won, the good guy usually does win in sports movies.
It's the Mandela effect. I thought that Tom Cruise wore sunglasses during the famous Risky Business dance, but it's countless parodies that depict him in sunglasses.
Mandela Effect is just cope for people who can't admit they were wrong. He's often depicted as wearing sunglasses because people thought that made it look cooler, it's easier to depict it that way out of context, for someone who hasn't seen the original scene.
The Mandela effect is just bad memory, human memory is actually very bad. I also clearly remember that Pikachu has a black tail end, or that somewhere in a Bond movie, jaws fell in love with a girl because she had braces.
Peter Jackson has said in interviews that he was supposed to dodge the knife but deflected it because he couldn't move fast enough and it shattered the knife appears again in the next film perfectly intact
I don't think Winston Groom intended for Jenny to die of Hepatitis C. In the novel Forrest Gump (WAY different from the movie), Jenny doesn't even die!

The title of the first Man with no name trilogy is A Fistful of Dollars. The second is For a Few Dollars More. Considering the title, one would think it's a sequel
I think Edith Head was indeed the inspiration for the character in The Incredibles. But Disney couldn't say that without risking a lawsuit. Like all characters inspired from life, she took on her own persona during filming.
I think I got another one for Raiders of the Lost Ark: The argument fueled by The Big Bang Theory that Indiana Jones does not affect the outcome of the story. The argument is that even if Indy weren't in the movie, the Nazis still would've found the ark, opened it, and died, which is exactly what happened in the movie. However, Indy does help get the Ark back to the United States afterwards. Plus, the Nazis were tailing Indy to get information on the Ark. The Nazis were also digging in the wrong place. Now granted, the Nazis could've eventually found the ark after a ton of blind digging, but whether or not Indy had affected the story isn't the true point of the Indiana Jones movies. The purpose of Indy's adventures is not to gain the treasure in question, but something greater, whether it be strengthening his relationships with Marion, his father, or others, or by simply doing the right thing.
ever heard indi say "it belongs in a museum"? seems apparent to me that he means a museum in the USA...........not sure that taking artifacts and relics from one part of the world and taking them to a different country is the "right thing to do", seems to me that there are numerous countries at any given moment in time that seem sore about other countries stealing their relics to display in their own museums.........
More to the point, why does no-one point out the other great truth about Dr. JONES? He's RUBBISH as an archaeologist. Every time he visits an important site, he ends up destroying it, having at best, grabbed one artefact. Whether in Egypt, Central America, Malta, the Holy Land or a US government warehouse, Indy leaves the place collapsing or in flames. The man's a menace.
The only reason why the Nazis were digging in the wrong place is because they only had half the information due to the burn mark. If Indie didn't show up to save Marion, they would have gotten the full medallion and they would have been digging in the right place
About the 1984 The Karate Kid, there is a persistent rumor that Daniel's Crane Kick to the face should have been illegal/banned. However, not one single character in the movie mentioned such a rule. Even other facekicks were counted as points during earlier rounds.
Since Edith Head, the costume designer, died in 1981, and the movie, "The Incredibles, came out in 2004, I doubt any or, even some, of the younger audience or their parents, would know who Edith Head was.
The story of how that got made is just wild over all. The main actors showed up thinking they were extras, the director/writer was Italian and knew very little English, the whole crew in fact other than a costumer didn't speak much English so the costumer acted as translator, the writing had to be said verbatim, even though it was awkward, and on and on. I still love it though, lmao.
I mean italian filmakers always cash in some movie into their sequel of other movie like zombi 2 that always considered as sequel for original Romero dawn of the dead
no. they are called Gremlins. Billy says ''well, they are the mogwai'' but later tells Kate ''they're Gremlins'' then Mr Fullerman says ''there's a Gremlin in my cab!''
@ well let’s see here billy Kate and Mr futterman…all Americans who experienced the creatures all at the same time,of course they are all going to call them the same thing! Duh!!! Maybe you should watch secrets of the mogwai which is a canon prequel to the first movie
What???? People actually thought that Rocky won the fight in the first film????? That's precisely one of the reasons that made film special, him winning the fight would be normal.
27:30 Disney has a long tradition of artists placing inappropriate content in their media whether it was "sex" written in the sky in The Lion King or phallic images made to look like sand castles in The Little Mermaid. The company line may be that the letters were "SFX," but the reality is an artist snuck in the letters "SEX" and it was beyond the point of repair so it was up to company PR to come up with a more family-friendly explanation.
Literally zero people who ever think about Rocky at all think he wins in the first one since the WHOLE FUCKING POINT of the movie was that he didn't HAVE to win the fight to accomplish what he wanted.
Sergio Leone might not have intended the Clint Eastwood characters in his trilogy to be the same person. Still, in the Akira Kurosawa films Yojimbo and Sanjuro, which the Leone films are based on, the character ( played by Toshiro Mifune) was. It is only natural that anyone who knew that Leone's films were based on the Kurosawa films would assume Eastwood was the same character in all the films.
Anyone else read "ITS NOT A SEQUEL!" a la Arnold Schwarzenegger calmy telling the students that he is currently not fighting a tumor while he is undercover he as a kindergarten teacher?
Yo the chariot scene was one of the most advanced and expensive of the time. the chariot race sequence in Ben-Hur (1959) was the largest set ever built at the time and took over a year and thousands of workers to build; the director's son, a stuntman, almost died; the extras rioted on camera; and the cars filming the race were slower than the horses
Temple of Doom in the opening scene even had the text "Shanghai, 1935" on the screen, while Raiders had the text "Peru, 1936" or "South America, 1936" in its opening scene.
@@Rattwap Particularly Veronica Cartwright ("Lambert"), whose reaction was arguably the strongest -- supposedly she did not anticipate that she would be sprayed in the face with the fake blood, so her reaction was genuine.
SFX in the Lion King is the same as when a toddler says a bad word and the parents rush in and say "no, he said Truck! you said Truck, right? yes he said Truck!"
Directors often don't direct entire trilogies. Like Abrahms with the "new" trilogy. In fact it is hard to find a trilogy written and directed by a single guy.
I'll give you one that comes from movies and TV: "Beam me up, Scotty." 1. When referring to Scotty in his official role as chief engineer, Kirk never called him Scotty. He would refer to him as Mr. Scott. 2. Kirk would always get his attention first, then announce how many were to beam up. So the line was actually "Mr. Scott, two to beam up." The line "Bean me up, Scotty" never appears in any of the series episodes or movies.
I thought it was odd that some people thought 1936 was before 1935, are they just skipping the beginning of Indy movies where they can see the year or something 🤔 Well Blondie sounds more like a nickname, Joe doesn't sound like a last name and does Manco really sound like a first name to anyone lol 🤪 (but the other actors are definitely playing multiple roles whether Clint Eastwood is or not) To be fair, that announcer in Rocky was a bit hard to understand when using that microphone, seems a bit muffled, the second film makes it more clear with dialogue between other characters Oh I've been using the one about Gremlins multiple times. "What creature don't you feed after midnight. Gremlins! WRONG, it's the feeding of Mogwai that turns them into gremlins!" I mean what happens if you feed a gremlin after midnight, do they become super Gremlins or revert back into Mogwai So Vader actually says "Luke" after "Don't make me destroy you!" So are people misquoting Empire or just omitting everything between "Luke" and "I am your father!" Leigh Brackett's draft didn't quite match the final cut, George Lucas did write a draft or two after Leigh passed away and before Lawrence Kasdan was brought on, but he gave her credit because he liked her a lot. George definitely didn't direct Empire and Jedi, I had no idea others thought otherwise
I wish someone else would remember the sound clips we could download for our computers back in 2000. I had among others, "Hello, Clarice, is that you?" as a logging on sound for my AOL. I can't be the only one that remembers this and realizes that's what people probably remember hearing.
I distinctly remember sound clips from back then… Unfortunately, the ridiculously distinctive download my photographic memory can’t shake involves Donald Duck and oral sex. -shudders-
Memory is not accurate, and people do tend to believe unfounded rumors. Hell, how many of you fell for that bogus Mandela effect crap. Don't feed Rocky after midnight or he'll turn into a Sith.
"Play it Again, Sam" is not a misquote, at least not for Woody Allen. He wrote the play in 1969, and later the film in 1972, named "Play it Again, Sam". It's referencing his character emulating Bogart's film persona, hence the "Again". I've yet to see any "misquote" of this line prior to 1969. Anything afterward is just mistakenly repeating the title of the Allen film.
What about, "Dry land is not a myth! I have seen it!" While that quote is tied to the 1990 film water world, that line is never actually spoken in the movie
I'm pretty sure that some famous misquotes started off as intentional paraphrazings because on their own, the direct quotes would make little sense; such as "No, I am your father" like..."no" what? Or indeed the "...'do I feel lucky' - well, do ya, punk?". Over time some people just forgot the origins and started mistaking the paraphrasing for the real deal.
You can also tell that Temple of Doom is a prequel because Indy is more concerned with fortune and glory. Raiders Indy wouldn't have taken Willie hostage like that.
In _Life of Brian,_ the famous "Biggus Dickus" scene has the myth that the Roman soldiers were played by extras who were told they wouldn't get paid if they laughed. They were actually played by comedic actors who the Pythons knew and had worked with before and there was no threat of non-payment.
"The name's Bond. James Bond." The first time this is uttered by Connery, the line is answering a question from Silvia Trench. She asks him, "Mr???" And he responds, "Bond. James Bond." It's always seemed ridiculous in later films that he introduces himself with the former.
You got the wrong version of Ben Hurr, it was the 1925 Fred Niblo version where the stuntman playing Marsala died in a chariot crash and he was not the only one, the actual number of deaths is unknown especially among the many Italian extras, cameramen and stunt players and drivers, it is estimated to be at least 12 and might be as many as 50
slightly longer, it takes minutes before the body temp drops low enough for hypothermia to kick in, the cold killing you also lengthens the time frame you can be resuscitated afterwards.
@jaquigreenlees Exactly! People also forget that jack was wearing a thin shirt and pants while Rose was wearing a slightly thin dress covered in a dinner jacket that helped keep her warm.
@@jaquigreenlees while this is true in the modern sense, CPR was decades away as is resuscitation techniques we have today, Back then all a doctor did was feel for a pulse or at best listened for a heartbeat with a stethoscope and if they felt or heard nothing they moved on.
@@Rockhound6165fun fact, well not so fun fact. CPR is very rarely successful, true it is the best chance a lot of people have on scenarios, but sadly the results is more often than not successful. Also they don't really show it but if someone was doing CPR successfully those ribs would have been shattered.
Again, never heard anyone saying Rocky wins the match. Everyone I know understood he lost the match and this loss was the stepping stone for his rising
Inception misconception: The spinning top at the end determines if Cobb is dreaming or not. Chritopher Nolan has stated that the point is Cobb's peace of mind, not whether the top falls.
I always thought the said it was in how long the top takes to fall... so if its a dream it can take longer or shorter... for some reason everyone thinks in a dream it will just keep spinning. Any top you spin if it never falls over may be a good indicator you are dreaming.
Fun Fact: Linda Hunt is the only person to win an Academy Award for being a woman playing a man. Not playing a trans person but an actual man for playing Billy Kwan in the movie The Year of Living Dangerously.
I love that Rocky did not win the fight. Rocky won on his terms he went the distance. That was winning to him. The original Bad News Bears also lost the big game but won on their terms. Now the hero always as to win .
@@Rockhound6165 The alien sure made a lot of noise after he/she/it was ejected from the shuttle and shot with the harpoon before being incinerated. Tag line was right, actual movie was not.
HOLY CRAP! This is the first time I've ever heard Gump & Co. be referenced, that book was hilarious. New Coke, Exxon Valdez, and a town being covered in pig manure.😅 You have to read it to believe it.
@Rockhound6165 They tested it with period accurate temperatures. Yes it was controlled but it was still freezing. They also tested it in two different ways. Could they have survived the cold was one test and they both could have. Then they tested if they could both fit on the door and again, yes they could have. Even James Cameron admitted he messed up.
The Hanging Munchkin. Some people still believe that an old copy of The Wizard of Oz contained a shot of a munchkin hanging in the background when the clip in question was just a heavily edited shot of a large bird.
So Catch Me If You Can is loosely based on the real guy. There's movies that are completely based on a person's real life but then there's also movies that are loosely based on a person's real life. It's easy to get these things mixed up so it's good to d the research before hand.
No mention of The Tortoise and Hare Trilogy starring Bugs Bunny. They were all connected and directed by Tex Avery. It's clear that Bugs and Cecil know each other and are racing to determine once and for all superiority of one species over the other.
Okay, so I'm not crazy. Because I could have sworn that some of these misconceptions I have heard from watching the WatchMojo videos. The Titanic and Lord of the rings won in particular be the ones that can remember off the top of my head.
According to Keanu Reeves himself in an interview with one of the late night talk show guys, they put 'nasty chemicals' into the water to make it show on film. After googling I could find no such mention of the chemical, but that they indeed ADD MILK to water to make it show up better on film.
So Vigo Mortenson is a great actor. I've only seen the LOTR but he's been in a bunch of good stuff. But when I hear him talk, every time, to this day, after seeing the extended trilogy like 30 times, all I can think is "damn he's got a HIGH pitched voice!"
Most of these are ticky-tack or greatly exaggerated. You can still find old interviews with Veronica Cartwright and Sigourney Weaver where they both claim that they knew the alien was going to burst out and there would be blood, but they had no idea it would be that much blood. In fact in the Cartwright interview she says a huge stream of blood shot right at her and it freaked her out, she backed up and actually fell down. She says her reaction wasnt acting at all. While it's been exaggerated that they had no idea what would happen, this video's claim that they completely knew is also wrong. I'm going to go with what the people said who were actually there, and you can watch them say it on YT videos.
12:09 Who says Rocky won the first fight? Everyone knew he didn't. Apollo Creed said to Rocky after the final bell as they were hugging “Never again, never again”.
THE FRENCH CONNECTION. In the car-versus-train chase scene we see a the Popeye Doyle character narrowly miss hitting a mother and her baby in a baby carriage as they are crossing the street. The urban legend was that that was an actual mother that just happened to be crossing the street at that moment and that there was a baby in the carriage whereas that was actually a stunt woman and there was no baby in the carriage.
I would like to point out the following: The first, original Rocky movie (1976) was about an old, washed up dude that wants to get into the ring and take on the champ to see if he's still got it. Now let me describe the plot of Rocky Balboa (2006), the 6th(?) film in the franchise: Its about Rocky Balboa, an old, washed up boxer that wants to take on the champ to see if he's still got it. WHAT THE FUCK
Um you couldn't be more wrong. Rocky wasn't an "old washed up" fighter. In fact, age wise(if we assume Rocky is the same age as Stallone) in 1975 which the movie takes place, Rocky would be around 29-30 which would put him in his prime. What makes Rocky an underdog story is that he's just a local club fighter who, according to Micky, had the talent to be a great fighter but he squandered it until Micky trained him not because he was an old washed up boxer. Apollo wouldn't have given him a 2nd look if he were, say, 35 and older. He picked Rocky because of his name and he was local to where the fight was held and literally picked his name out of a boxing registry(you have to be licensed to legally box in all states). Now, by Rocky Balboa he wasn't washed up, he was 60 and long since retired. Ali when he fought Trevor Berbick and Larry Holmes was washed up.

I mean italian filmakers always cash in some movie into their sequel of other movie like zombi 2 that always considered as sequel for original Romero dawn of the dead
24:55 I always got the Jaws quote correct “You’re gonna need a bigger boat.”
Fun fact - Gremlins are still called mogwai after they transform….just bad mogwai lol
no. they are called Gremlins. Billy says ''well, they are the mogwai'' but later tells Kate ''they're Gremlins'' then Mr Fullerman says ''there's a Gremlin in my cab!''
@ well let’s see here billy Kate and Mr futterman…all Americans who experienced the creatures all at the same time,of course they are all going to call them the same thing! Duh!!! Maybe you should watch secrets of the mogwai which is a canon prequel to the first movie
What???? People actually thought that Rocky won the fight in the first film????? That's precisely one of the reasons that made film special, him winning the fight would be normal.
27:30 Disney has a long tradition of artists placing inappropriate content in their media whether it was "sex" written in the sky in The Lion King or phallic images made to look like sand castles in The Little Mermaid. The company line may be that the letters were "SFX," but the reality is an artist snuck in the letters "SEX" and it was beyond the point of repair so it was up to company PR to come up with a more family-friendly explanation.
The phallic Castle in The Little mermaid was only on the original VHS tape cover art and it was a mistake.
Literally zero people who ever think about Rocky at all think he wins in the first one since the WHOLE FUCKING POINT of the movie was that he didn't HAVE to win the fight to accomplish what he wanted.
Sergio Leone might not have intended the Clint Eastwood characters in his trilogy to be the same person. Still, in the Akira Kurosawa films Yojimbo and Sanjuro, which the Leone films are based on, the character ( played by Toshiro Mifune) was. It is only natural that anyone who knew that Leone's films were based on the Kurosawa films would assume Eastwood was the same character in all the films.
This is a great list, but I’m sure I learned a handful of these misconceptions from a watch Mojo video over the years lol
Anyone else read "ITS NOT A SEQUEL!" a la Arnold Schwarzenegger calmy telling the students that he is currently not fighting a tumor while he is undercover he as a kindergarten teacher?
That's just you, but it is funny to think about.
@@theunknowncommenter725
Nope.
Not just them.
I said it out loud that exact way.
1:52 So hepatitis killed Jenny and AIDS did nothing to her? Interesting, because the movie depicts her as pretty much ran through woman.
Still doesn't mean its AIDS/HIV
I don't know anyone who thinks all the dinosaurs were CGI also the CGI holds up today compared to moden movies
Yo the chariot scene was one of the most advanced and expensive of the time. the chariot race sequence in Ben-Hur (1959) was the largest set ever built at the time and took over a year and thousands of workers to build; the director's son, a stuntman, almost died; the extras rioted on camera; and the cars filming the race were slower than the horses
Temple of Doom in the opening scene even had the text "Shanghai, 1935" on the screen, while Raiders had the text "Peru, 1936" or "South America, 1936" in its opening scene.
My tape of Temple was missing the opening credits, it started when Indy sat down at the table.
So, yes, I'm the person who thought it was a sequel 😮
Temple of Doom is my least favorite of the quadrilogy.
The cast in Alien knew was it was going to happen, but they didn’t know when, so their reactions are of genuine shock.
Also, allegedly, they didn’t know the blood would spurt out as much as it did, catching the cast off guard.
@@Rattwap Particularly Veronica Cartwright ("Lambert"), whose reaction was arguably the strongest -- supposedly she did not anticipate that she would be sprayed in the face with the fake blood, so her reaction was genuine.
SFX in the Lion King is the same as when a toddler says a bad word and the parents rush in and say "no, he said Truck! you said Truck, right? yes he said Truck!"
Directors often don't direct entire trilogies. Like Abrahms with the "new" trilogy. In fact it is hard to find a trilogy written and directed by a single guy.
I could’ve sworn watchmojo told me these misconceptions first
I am like almost positive they did. At least some of them like the Lord of the rings and Titanic one. But I could be wrong
I'll give you one that comes from movies and TV: "Beam me up, Scotty."
1. When referring to Scotty in his official role as chief engineer, Kirk never called him Scotty. He would refer to him as Mr. Scott.
2. Kirk would always get his attention first, then announce how many were to beam up. So the line was actually "Mr. Scott, two to beam up."
The line "Bean me up, Scotty" never appears in any of the series episodes or movies.
I thought it was odd that some people thought 1936 was before 1935, are they just skipping the beginning of Indy movies where they can see the year or something 🤔
Well Blondie sounds more like a nickname, Joe doesn't sound like a last name and does Manco really sound like a first name to anyone lol 🤪 (but the other actors are definitely playing multiple roles whether Clint Eastwood is or not)
To be fair, that announcer in Rocky was a bit hard to understand when using that microphone, seems a bit muffled, the second film makes it more clear with dialogue between other characters
Oh I've been using the one about Gremlins multiple times. "What creature don't you feed after midnight. Gremlins! WRONG, it's the feeding of Mogwai that turns them into gremlins!" I mean what happens if you feed a gremlin after midnight, do they become super Gremlins or revert back into Mogwai
So Vader actually says "Luke" after "Don't make me destroy you!" So are people misquoting Empire or just omitting everything between "Luke" and "I am your father!" Leigh Brackett's draft didn't quite match the final cut, George Lucas did write a draft or two after Leigh passed away and before Lawrence Kasdan was brought on, but he gave her credit because he liked her a lot. George definitely didn't direct Empire and Jedi, I had no idea others thought otherwise
I wish someone else would remember the sound clips we could download for our computers back in 2000. I had among others, "Hello, Clarice, is that you?" as a logging on sound for my AOL. I can't be the only one that remembers this and realizes that's what people probably remember hearing.
I distinctly remember sound clips from back then…
Unfortunately, the ridiculously distinctive download my photographic memory can’t shake involves Donald Duck and oral sex.
-shudders-
Place 1 should be: EVERY WAR MOVIE: Mines explodes after releasing the pressure
Memory is not accurate, and people do tend to believe unfounded rumors. Hell, how many of you fell for that bogus Mandela effect crap. Don't feed Rocky after midnight or he'll turn into a Sith.
Rocky may not have won the round, but he won the hearts of millions. 🎉
"Play it Again, Sam" is not a misquote, at least not for Woody Allen. He wrote the play in 1969, and later the film in 1972, named "Play it Again, Sam". It's referencing his character emulating Bogart's film persona, hence the "Again". I've yet to see any "misquote" of this line prior to 1969. Anything afterward is just mistakenly repeating the title of the Allen film.
What about, "Dry land is not a myth! I have seen it!"
While that quote is tied to the 1990 film water world, that line is never actually spoken in the movie
Everybody who is anybody knows that Temple Of Doom was a prequel
I'm pretty sure that some famous misquotes started off as intentional paraphrazings because on their own, the direct quotes would make little sense; such as "No, I am your father" like..."no" what? Or indeed the "...'do I feel lucky' - well, do ya, punk?". Over time some people just forgot the origins and started mistaking the paraphrasing for the real deal.
15:00 Mythbusters actually proved they both could have easily survived on that piece of wreckage. Nice try, though.
4:02 NO ONE thinks that! And if they do, they’re morons! 😂
One of my favorite facts about Jurassic Park are the animatronics! They're so cool!
You can also tell that Temple of Doom is a prequel because Indy is more concerned with fortune and glory. Raiders Indy wouldn't have taken Willie hostage like that.
25:08 That line came from the Trailer for the movie Hannibal, at least 5 years later.
Clint Eastwood looks and acts the same in every movie.
So retro versions of the rock?
Hah.☺
In _Life of Brian,_ the famous "Biggus Dickus" scene has the myth that the Roman soldiers were played by extras who were told they wouldn't get paid if they laughed. They were actually played by comedic actors who the Pythons knew and had worked with before and there was no threat of non-payment.
And the main one was Chris Langham, later guilty of the most depraved category of child sex-abuse images.
They can't show The Day the Clown Cried until 2024! We have to wait that long?
It's nearly 2025 already. They need to release it.
Yeah Jack could have fit but we just didn't want him to 😊
"Edna Mode isn't based on anyone. She's her own thing."
Anyone else disappointed that the next line wasn't 'Like David S. Pumpkins'?
Some fan theories say she's Boo from Monster's Inc all grown up.
Apparently even James Earl Jones, himself, would misquote the line as, "Luke, I am your father".
My favorite misquote is "Mirror, mirror on the wall" from Snow White. The actual phrase is "MAGIC mirror on the wall" :)
"The name's Bond. James Bond." The first time this is uttered by Connery, the line is answering a question from Silvia Trench. She asks him, "Mr???" And he responds, "Bond. James Bond." It's always seemed ridiculous in later films that he introduces himself with the former.
He may not have directed all three, but Lucas did ruin the original trilogy with all the “special edition” bulls***.
No he didn't. Special editions did not ruin the original trilogy at all. It's been almost 30 years and you got to get off that.
You got the wrong version of Ben Hurr, it was the 1925 Fred Niblo version where the stuntman playing Marsala died in a chariot crash and he was not the only one, the actual number of deaths is unknown especially among the many Italian extras, cameramen and stunt players and drivers, it is estimated to be at least 12 and might be as many as 50
Actually, whether or not Jack could fit on the door is irrelevant. Both of them would have died within seconds in that arctic water.
slightly longer, it takes minutes before the body temp drops low enough for hypothermia to kick in, the cold killing you also lengthens the time frame you can be resuscitated afterwards.
@jaquigreenlees Exactly! People also forget that jack was wearing a thin shirt and pants while Rose was wearing a slightly thin dress covered in a dinner jacket that helped keep her warm.
@@jaquigreenlees while this is true in the modern sense, CPR was decades away as is resuscitation techniques we have today, Back then all a doctor did was feel for a pulse or at best listened for a heartbeat with a stethoscope and if they felt or heard nothing they moved on.
@@Rockhound6165fun fact, well not so fun fact. CPR is very rarely successful, true it is the best chance a lot of people have on scenarios, but sadly the results is more often than not successful. Also they don't really show it but if someone was doing CPR successfully those ribs would have been shattered.
Amazing video Rebecca from watch mojo of movies that people get wrong,fantastic job.
Keep it up on your work and this video and channel
I love this video and channel
Thanks you for your video and channel
Again, never heard anyone saying Rocky wins the match. Everyone I know understood he lost the match and this loss was the stepping stone for his rising
Similarly to Rocky...no one who ever thinks of Indiana Jones at all DEOSN'T know that Temple of Doom is a prequel.
A Black Director Made It Original Gangstas (1996) When In fact It was directed by Larry Cohen a white man known for B-Movies
Inception misconception: The spinning top at the end determines if Cobb is dreaming or not.
Chritopher Nolan has stated that the point is Cobb's peace of mind, not whether the top falls.
The spinning top was Mals totem, not his, his was his wedding ring, the spinning of the top was him letting go of Mal and his guilt
I always thought the said it was in how long the top takes to fall... so if its a dream it can take longer or shorter... for some reason everyone thinks in a dream it will just keep spinning. Any top you spin if it never falls over may be a good indicator you are dreaming.
Edna Mode has always reminded me of Linda Hunt from CSI LA and Silverado.
I thought she was the voice for her, as animators tend to make the characters resemble their voice actors or emulate their expressions and mannerisms.
Fun Fact: Linda Hunt is the only person to win an Academy Award for being a woman playing a man. Not playing a trans person but an actual man for playing Billy Kwan in the movie The Year of Living Dangerously.
I love that Rocky did not win the fight. Rocky won on his terms he went the distance. That was winning to him. The original Bad News Bears also lost the big game but won on their terms. Now the hero always as to win .
Don't forget all the movies that depict sound in space. What's worse is when other characters react to it.
That is not under the category "things people incorrectly believe about movies". That's more "things misrepresented in movies".
Ah but Alien's tag line is "In Space No One Can Hear You Scream" so Ridley Scott got it right.
@@Rockhound6165 The alien sure made a lot of noise after he/she/it was ejected from the shuttle and shot with the harpoon before being incinerated. Tag line was right, actual movie was not.
HOLY CRAP! This is the first time I've ever heard Gump & Co. be referenced, that book was hilarious. New Coke, Exxon Valdez, and a town being covered in pig manure.😅 You have to read it to believe it.
OK, Mythbusters PROVED that Jack could have survived on that "door". They literally proved it.
Working in a controlled environment and not in the Atlantic in freezing temperatures.
@Rockhound6165 They tested it with period accurate temperatures. Yes it was controlled but it was still freezing. They also tested it in two different ways. Could they have survived the cold was one test and they both could have. Then they tested if they could both fit on the door and again, yes they could have. Even James Cameron admitted he messed up.
@@seraphimvalkyrin4543 it's impossible to test it with period temps because it's over 100 years since not to mention it was a frigging movie.
The Hanging Munchkin. Some people still believe that an old copy of The Wizard of Oz contained a shot of a munchkin hanging in the background when the clip in question was just a heavily edited shot of a large bird.
So Catch Me If You Can is loosely based on the real guy. There's movies that are completely based on a person's real life but then there's also movies that are loosely based on a person's real life. It's easy to get these things mixed up so it's good to d the research before hand.
there is also a novel about the person's life on the run with the same title.
@jaquigreenlees Ah good to know
No mention of The Tortoise and Hare Trilogy starring Bugs Bunny.
They were all connected and directed by Tex Avery. It's clear that Bugs and Cecil know each other and are racing to determine once and for all superiority of one species over the other.
The one with Fargo doesn't actually have much to show otherwise. A couple of other ones mentioned her also have been contracted by the film makers
I love how half these corrections is Watch Mojo walking back things they've said in previous videos
Okay, so I'm not crazy. Because I could have sworn that some of these misconceptions I have heard from watching the WatchMojo videos. The Titanic and Lord of the rings won in particular be the ones that can remember off the top of my head.
According to Keanu Reeves himself in an interview with one of the late night talk show guys, they put 'nasty chemicals' into the water to make it show on film. After googling I could find no such mention of the chemical, but that they indeed ADD MILK to water to make it show up better on film.
So Vigo Mortenson is a great actor. I've only seen the LOTR but he's been in a bunch of good stuff. But when I hear him talk, every time, to this day, after seeing the extended trilogy like 30 times, all I can think is "damn he's got a HIGH pitched voice!"
Most of these are ticky-tack or greatly exaggerated. You can still find old interviews with Veronica Cartwright and Sigourney Weaver where they both claim that they knew the alien was going to burst out and there would be blood, but they had no idea it would be that much blood. In fact in the Cartwright interview she says a huge stream of blood shot right at her and it freaked her out, she backed up and actually fell down. She says her reaction wasnt acting at all. While it's been exaggerated that they had no idea what would happen, this video's claim that they completely knew is also wrong. I'm going to go with what the people said who were actually there, and you can watch them say it on YT videos.
Leone's actual Trilogy was A Fistful of Dynamite, Once upon in the West, and Once upon a time in America.
12:09 Who says Rocky won the first fight? Everyone knew he didn't. Apollo Creed said to Rocky after the final bell as they were hugging “Never again, never again”.
Heath Ledger was such an amazing actor
The gay thing killed him. Introduced him to demons.
Knew a lot of these but some really amazed me!
I have always wondered if Brandon Lee's death was in the film. Thank you.
It’s funny how I’ve watched mojo videos that have perpetuated some of the movie myths
What about the hanging munchkin in wizard of oz ?
I'm surprised you didn't include the myth that a hung Munchkin can be seen in The Wizard of Oz.
Humphrey Bogart says "Play it," but without "again" or "Sam"
THE FRENCH CONNECTION. In the car-versus-train chase scene we see a the Popeye Doyle character narrowly miss hitting a mother and her baby in a baby carriage as they are crossing the street. The urban legend was that that was an actual mother that just happened to be crossing the street at that moment and that there was a baby in the carriage whereas that was actually a stunt woman and there was no baby in the carriage.
“No, Buzz. I am your father”
I would like to point out the following: The first, original Rocky movie (1976) was about an old, washed up dude that wants to get into the ring and take on the champ to see if he's still got it.
Now let me describe the plot of Rocky Balboa (2006), the 6th(?) film in the franchise: Its about Rocky Balboa, an old, washed up boxer that wants to take on the champ to see if he's still got it.
WHAT THE FUCK
Um you couldn't be more wrong. Rocky wasn't an "old washed up" fighter. In fact, age wise(if we assume Rocky is the same age as Stallone) in 1975 which the movie takes place, Rocky would be around 29-30 which would put him in his prime. What makes Rocky an underdog story is that he's just a local club fighter who, according to Micky, had the talent to be a great fighter but he squandered it until Micky trained him not because he was an old washed up boxer. Apollo wouldn't have given him a 2nd look if he were, say, 35 and older. He picked Rocky because of his name and he was local to where the fight was held and literally picked his name out of a boxing registry(you have to be licensed to legally box in all states). Now, by Rocky Balboa he wasn't washed up, he was 60 and long since retired. Ali when he fought Trevor Berbick and Larry Holmes was washed up.
Well, maybe they were thinking of the 1925 version of Ben-Hur where a stuntman did die in the filming of the chariot race.
The gremlin itself can still repriduce in water and still be killed by sunlight - its a plot point in both movies
I don't think they say a mogwai can be killed by sunlight only that light hurts their eyes.
The grass thing doesn't happen during Can You Feel The Love Tonight.
Rocky is based on a true story about a guy who got a shot at Muhammed Ali. He didn't win either, but he knocked him down.
The boxer's real name was Chuck Wepner, and it was his fight with Muhammad Ali that inspired "Rocky."
Dear MOJO I feel like y'all are gaslighting me 😂 😂😂
