films

I used to belive that actors only simulate their kiss, and that they don't touch their lips, that the kiss was a visual effect!

When I was about three, my brother would always make me watch Star Wars with him. He would pause the movie and ask me the characters' names, and I would say them. When he told me Luke Skywalker's name, my first response was, " Can he walk on the sky?" I believed that he could walk on the sky until I was about eight years old.

I used to believe that an animated film meant that the film had live animals in it.

I used to believe that Marilyn Monroe and Betty Boop were the same person.

Madame Butterfly

I used to believe that the actors would act out entire movies everytime I pressed play on the video, and stop when I pressed pause.

The guys in Star Wars would have got really fed up of saying the same lines over and over and over again!!

my older brother managed to convince me that Jackie Chan would die if the back of his head got touched due to a previous injury that resulted in the placing of a plastic plug in his skull (the plastic plug part is true, just the death part is false)

Up until a few months ago, I thought a "sneak-preview" for a film was a really long movie trailer that you watched on TV at a certain time. Then when I heard on the radio, "Win tickets to a sneak preview of..." I thought it was a really long trailer that you went to the theatre to see. I found out what it really was when my friend was all excited because she won tickets to a sneak preview and I was all, "Why are you so excited about a movie trailer?" Then she told me.

I used to think that the starwars weekly comic wasn't very strong.. duh.

I used to believe that in the "olden days" when films were first made in black and white that every body moved around very very quickly and had lots more energy back then....... actually I still believe that!

Andrea

I used to think that all of the films from WW1 and 2, etc. were reenactments of the actual thing!

I used to think that Brad Pitt and Bill Gates were the same person

I used to believe that producer Fred Fuchs was Fred F***s. I guess that was because I wasn't wearing glasses and the "h" looked like a "k."

Joey Schwartzman

My grandmother allowed me to watch Stephen King's "IT" at an obscenely young age. For years afterward, I thought that if I flushed the toilet, a demonic clown would come out of the toilet and kill me. :-)

Callista Melaney

I used to think that every time I watched a movie on tape, the narrator would have to narrate live so they would have to immediately stop whatever they were doing to come and add the voice for my movie. One Christmas Eve I played "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" nine times and I remember thinking "Wow, he must be tired of telling me this story so many times."

While in San Antonio on business a few years ago I found a "Duke Skywalker" T-shirt for my stepfather, a Star Wars fan, that said "May the Horse be with you." My stepfather was very entertained -- my mother stared in perplexity because that's what she always *thought* they were saying, and there never was any horse in the movies...

Kit

I used to believe that an "Al Pacino" was a kind of a horse. Hahaha.
