Famous Movie Quotes We All Get Wrong....

Hello movie fans!! While some films are remembered for their earth shattering story, their amazing cast and the performance of their careers, other films stand the test of time by one or more simple quotes that just stick in our minds and have featured in many other places ever since. But is what people remember actually what is said in the film?? Turns out, maybe not!

Yep, sadly even us huuuuge movie nerds have been getting a few of these wrong. Doh! Not wanting to sound like a frantic school teacher, prepping their red pen ready to mark up some of your work, take a look at some of these little corrections to some of the most famous movie quotes ever.....

Dirty Harry

Often said: Do you feel lucky, punk?

But actually: Being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya punk?

The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 82!

Alphabetti Spaghetti! Looks like the Weekend to me!

Once Upon a cloudy sky. Amongst a thick hazy Forrest, sat hunched over on a hollowed out log, gazing wearily over a steaming boggy marsh. Let us be your be-shaggled woodland Troll as we dribble, droll and blow snot bubbles in anticipation of something slimy and squidgy or boney and crunchy to eat. We'll be poised and ready to pounce onto some cinematic greatness, we'll prepare our nasty nosh with herbs and sprinkles of movie magic before we devoir the whole thing in one single gulp and belch out some celluloid wonder.

Have a happy retro weekend!
