She Done Him Wrong (1933)
What People Say: "Why don’t you come up and see me sometime.”
What The Film Really Said: "Why don't you come up sometime and see me? I'm home every evening.” She did switch it to the correct order for I’m No angel, but there was no “Why don’t you…”
If We’re Going To Get It Wrong, Why Not: “Hello! How about we have sex? I’m easy.”
…And Justice For All (1979)
What People Say: "I’m out of order? You’re out of order! This whole courtroom’s out of order!”
What The Film Really Said: " You're out of order! You're out of order! The whole trial is out of order! They're out of order!"
If We’re Going To Get It Wrong, Why Not: “Your honour, I would respectfully ask that you go f**k yourself.”
Next: The Silence Of The Lambs & The Wizard Of Oz

I think "I love the smell of napalm in the morning" is from "Dr. Strangelove". I saw it years ago, so I don't know if it's the same kind of mis-quotation.

Actually in 'All about Eve' she does say "Fasten your seatbelts its going to be a bumpy night." Shockingly people do get this one right :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eg-ckMup6SI - youtube video of the clip

Duh! You missed the lowest hanging fruit of all: Cool Hand Luke Misqoute: What we have here is a failure to communicate! What the film actually says: What we have here is...Failure to communicate! Even though it is only one letter, it makes a big difference in the tone.
