i used to believe that films were real so if someone got killed i thought they really got killed! Now I know it's not true.

P.S - Or if someone died.

Wouldn't You Like 2 Know!

When I was about 3 I used to think that all films were real and events in a film were actually happening in real life as I watched them. Apparently I would cry for hours when someone died, and my parents would never know why - until I told them a year or so later.

When I was young I saw a movie where a car went over a cliff. I remember thinking that the driver's family must have got a lot of money to let that guy drive off a cliff and die just to make a movie.

I used to believe that the movies were real and that people who died in those movies actually died. Which is why I thought actors were very highly paid.

i used to think that everyone who died in a film was a volunteer. This was shattered when a comic - probably the 'Eagle' - printed a feature on how film stunts worked!!

I used to think that the peolple who dies in the movies, in westerns for instance, was people that wanted to commit suicide and the money they earned as actors was paid to the family

when i was a kid i used to believe that people who had horrible lives volunteered to die on film to make movied and that was how the scene was shot, with the person actually dying.

When I was about 8 I was very distressed when I watched Westerns because I believed that real guns were used and that people actually died. My parents reassured me that the guns only fired 'blanks'. However the only 'blanks' I knew were the 'double blanks' used in the game of Dominos. So I was partly reassured but still puzzled because a)I could not work out how they put the Dominos in the guns and b)I thought being hit by a Domino fired from a gun would be pretty painful. It was several years before told my elder brother this and he thought I was really stupid.

I used to believe that everybody who died on screen died in real life. I figured that for these roles they used people who were terminally ill anyway. It never ever occured to me that people could act death.

My mum used to buy me sweets to sit quietly to watch the Saturday afternoon movie. I used to beleive that advertisements were put out offering people lots of money to be shot on film. I thought they were paid up front,spent the money ,then died.How weird was I!!!

When I was younger, I used to believe when you got killed in a movie.. you really were killed. So the movie stars hired stunt poeple to die for them.

When I was a kid, I used to believe when a actor/actoress die in a movie, they will really die and won't act in the next movie

I used ot think that people who died in movies or on tv really died. To justify this, they MUST have used criminals from death row.

I did not know for many years that the Wizard of Oz started in black and white, went to color, then back to black and white. When we first got our color TV it was one of the first movies we rented- I was SO bummed when it started!

I used to think actors in movies sometimes had to actually die to make the movies look real.

I used to believe that the extras that got shot in films were prisoners whose punishment was to be put to death by the actors.

Dr Apocalypse

I used to believe that people who got killed in movies really died and that the directors etc had to find sufficient people to be killed in their movie!

I used to believe that when people died or were killed in the movies that they died in real life. And therefore I concluded that all actors who died in movies must have received a death sentence.
