These are the movie quotes everyone gets wrong
You might be surprised by how many popular movie quotes you’re remembering just a bit wrong.
‘The Wizard of Oz’
Though most people say ‘Looks like we’re not in Kansas anymore,’ or ‘Toto, I don’t think we’re in Kansas anymore,’ those quotes aren’t quite right. Dorothy actually says ‘Toto, I’ve a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.’
‘The Silence of the Lambs’
If you’ve always thought Hannibal Lecter greets Clarice by saying ‘Hello, Clarice,’ we’ve got news for you. It’s actually ‘Good evening, Clarice.’ How polite!
‘Field of Dreams’
That whispering voice? It’s not quietly murmuring ‘If you build it, they will come.’ The correct quote is ‘If you build it, he will come.’
‘Wall Street’
Though Gordon Gekko definitely thinks greed is good, his quote is actually ‘Greed, for lack of a better word, is good.’
‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’
The Queen says ‘Magic mirror on the wall, who is the fairest one of all?’ Most people think it’s ‘Mirror, mirror on the wall’ … and most people are incorrect.
‘The Empire Strikes Back’
This might blow your mind, but when Vader reveals his true identity to Luke, he does not say ‘Luke, I am your father.’ He actually says ‘No, I am your father.’
How many of these quotes have you been saying wrong? Don’t worry, we won’t judge.
Here’s one that gets to me when quoted wrong, though it isn’t out of any particular movie.
“You CAN’T have your cake and eat it too.” Of course you CAN have your cake and eat it, if you so chose, but you definitely “Can’t eat your cake AND have it too.”
It must be some form of dyslexia, no?
