Iconic Movie Lines That Are Often Misquoted

Misquote: “Fasten your seat belts, it’s going to be a bumpy ride.”

Real Quote: “Fasten your seat belts, it’s going to be a bumpy night.”

This misquote is so prevalent that it’s taken a life of its own. How many people have heard the misquoted phrase and haven’t even seen the movie? Probably a lot of you. It makes sense, too, as Bette Davis isn’t actually riding anywhere when she says this.

But, whether it’s a bumpy ride or bumpy night, it’s always a good idea to fasten those seat belts. You may experience whiplash from realizing that the movie quotes you remember are all wrong.
