'I'M GONNA MAKE HIM AN OFFER HE CAN'T REFUSE' (THE GODFATHER): Who'd dare to misquote the iconic remark of Marlon Brando's Vito Carleone? Well, seems like many people does. A simple tweak to make it match the situation in front or to produce an apt meme, maybe. But people have been telling it wrong for a long time now.

'FLY, YOU FOOLS!' (THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING): Fly and Run are synonymous here. The great sorcerer is falling and his last message to Frodo and his friends were clear. Sir Ian McKellen's Gandalf utters his final words hanging from the edge, and it is hard to grasp it the first time. Yet, it is fancy that many people get such a short line wrong.

'WELL, THAT ESCALATED QUICKLY (ANCHORMAN): This one from Adam McKay's comedy might seem like a genuine mistake. A line of not much significance in the movie or scene, but again the world of internet trolls and memes made the Will Ferrel character popular along with a misquote.

'WE'RE GONNA NEED A BIGGER BOAT' (JAWS): One from Steven Spielberg's 1970 cult horror-thriller. Maybe after a point, people started saying it the way they'd have if in the shoes of Roy Scheider's Brody. When there is a killer Great White in the vicinity, it is always better to be 'us' than 'me' or 'us', is it not?

'YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH' (FEW GOOD MEN): Almost three decades after release, Rob Reiner's military courtroom drama remains one of the finest performance ever by Tom Cruise. In the final confrontation scene, Lt Daniel (Tom) plays his risky nothing or everything card and Col Jessup (Jack Nicholson) falls for it, initiating an intense exchange of words. What really is a series of brief questions thrown at one another, we somehow summarised it into 'You want the truth? You can't handle it!'

'WHAT IF I TOLD YOU...': (THE MATRIX): This one is completely on the memes. Getting catchy lines wrong is one thing and making something random from the thin air and dumping it on a popular movie another. Welcome to reality folks, your favourite meme is a fake movie line and Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) never said that to Keanu Reeves' Neo anywhere in the movie.

'LUKE, I AM YOUR FATHER...' (STAR WARS E5): Last, but not the least. David Prowse's Darth Vader never called Mark Hamill's character by name before making the big revelation. Cut short for convenience and 'mutilated' as some hardcore fans of the series might say.

THE REASON: Ever heard of the Mandela Effect? It is an unusual phenomenon where a large group of people remember something differently than how it occurred. It got the name because a lot of South Africans heard the news of Nelson Mandela passing away in the 1980s despite the fact he went on to become their president a decade later.
