Borrowing from madmonsterparty's thread, what are some of your movie related false memories? I was reading up on 1958's The Fly and got down a rabbit hole where a lot of people swear that it was filmed and released in black and white. It still blows my mind that "Hello Clarice" never happens in The Silence of the Lambs. |

No idea why but I always thought Wizard of Oz came out in '38 until relatively recently

There was a long period where I kept forgetting The Quiet Man was in color, despite the cinematography being one of the most praised aspects of it.
Until just last year, I had thought Chris Columbus directed the remake of Miracle on 34th Street.
Not a specific movie, but when I was a kid, I just assumed Audrey Hepburn was Katharine Hepburn's daughter and never bothered to look it up until like five years ago. My findings were surprising.

If you would have told me Chris Columbus was the director, I would have believed you. Before I found the answer, I was like “if it wasn’t Chris Columbus, was it Sir Richard Attenborough,” but it was actually Les Mayfield, auteur of the greatest movie ever Flubber.  I have so many of these, but of course none that immediately come to mind.  |

I can see where the Chris Columbus directing Miracle on 34th Street thing comes from, especially since John Hughes wrote the remake, but I doubt that Columbus was interested in getting typecasted as "that Christmas guy director", anyway. Speaking of which I loved Flubber as a kid. Honestly my greatest Mandela effect is that I thought that for the longest time when I was younger, was that Mousehunt was directed by Tim Burton because of its bizarrely morbid comedic tone, and not the feature debut of "make everything BIGGER" Gore Verbinski. |

I'm always shocked that this punch is missed and I wipe it from my mind all the time - this has to be the equivalent of De Niro kicking the shopkeeper in The Irishman where some people are like "That one scene ruined the movie for me!" - and there are people like that believe it or not. If somebody said this about The Godfather you'd think they were loony......  |

For the longest time, until a few months ago honestly, I thought Tim Burton directed The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Also, in 2012 I went to a convention and sat in on Chris Sarandon's panel where someone asked him about working with "the amazing director Tim Burton" on the film and Sarandon corrected him real fast. lol.

For the longest time, I thought Poitier played Chief in Apocalypse Now.

Another one I just remembered was the "Have you ever seen a grown man naked?" line in Airplane. I had always remembered it as the other questions coming first (movies about gladiators, etc.) and the "grown man" line being the final punchline. Revisited it a couple of years ago and lost it at the fact that it's literally the first thing he asks after "Have you ever been in a cockpit before?" Just 0-100 immediately. |

Most definitely just a me thing, but used to think Superbad was directed by Judd Apatow
