I think it's more than that, it's more like people parroting people who are wrong.
>person A says a wrong thing about some detail in a movie
>person B has never watched it and just take A's words as his own to pretend he knows what he's talking about and tell person C who also has never seen the movie in question
This goes on until a bunch of people end up taking the wrong detail as fact until they finally watched the movie and see the actual detail.
This happens very often on the internet since a huge chunk of internet culture is people making references to movies and what not. You have people who have never played Portal know about the cake is a lie thing and so on, all by pop cultural osmosis.
