Line 46:
* There are urban legends in the 1939 film adaptation of ''[[The Wizard of Oz (film)|The Wizard of Oz]]''. For a long time, people thought that a crowned crane in the scene where Dorothy, the Scarecrow, and the Tin Man resume their journey was a guy hanging himself. You can blame the bad image quality and the small size of TV screens—when the film was rerelased in 3D IMAX for its 75th anniversary in late 2013, the crane was ''very'' obvious.
** And of course, most notably, the [[Pink Floyd]] ''[[The Dark Side of the Moon]]'' soundtrack synching legend. Vigorously denied by the band, who have pointed out that the audio technology, necessary to make the film soundtrack and rock album synch this precisely with each other, didn't exist in 1973.
*** The soundtrack synching legend was later referenced as an [[Easter Egg]]/[[Shout-Out]] parody by [[The Angry Video Game Nerd]] in his review of the videogame adaptation; but unlike Pink Floyd, who have said the synching with the film was unintentional, the creators of the episode at Cinemassacre did the synching of the album and the episode as intentional and [[Throw It In|placed in a few bits and clues, like a plane,]] to make the synching work, as described [https://web.archive.org/web/20111215075258/http://cinemassacre.com/2008/08/04/dark-side-of-the-nerd/ in their blog].
* An urban legend is that the movie ''[[Three Men and A Baby]]'' has a ghost visible in a window in one scene. It's actually just a cardboard cut-out used for promos.
* ''[[Kamen Rider Fourze]]'' states that the previous stories of all Kamen Riders before it have been passed down as these.
