Who can forget when Regina George told Gretchen “fetch” would never happen in “Mean Girls”? Or what about when Mufasa reminded Simba to “remember who you are” in “Lion King”?

These universal lines in pop culture are iconic, but there are some moments we all seem to misquote.

For example, one of the most memorable scenes from “Snow White” is when the queen has a conversation with her mirror. While many think the saying is, “Mirror, mirror, on the wall,” the actual script says, “magic mirror on the wall.”

This Disney flick isn't the only one folks screw up. From "Star Wars" to "The Simpsons," watch Cracked's video below to test your knowledge of some other classics.
