OK heres a thread to either confirm or debunk popular Movie Myths. For instance, is it true that R2D2 appears on the spaceship at the end of Close Encounters? If he does ive never spotted him.
Also does the Millenium Falcon appear as a building front in Blad Runner? Again ive never seen it.
It matters not what happens in life, ive met the Mighty Bruce and my life is complete.

You can see images of the model they used by googling "r2d2 close encounters" for images.

Ive never seen the Transit van in Ben Hur 
Wasnt there a story of something in the clouds or smoke in the Lion King? A rude word or a smoke cock or something?

Wasnt there a story of something in the clouds or smoke in the Lion King? When Simba passes out he wafts up a bunch of petals (which is how Rafiki knows he's still alive) The petals spell out 'sex', apparently.
The ghost boy in the curtains in Three Men and Baby was always a classic. My aunt and uncle went blue in the face professing how true it was. I also went blue explaining it was Ted's cutout and the 'apartment' was on a sound stage
Here's a decent list of movie myths
And there's the link regarding the 'Munchkin Suicide'

Wasn't there supposed to be some 'rude' bits in Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Near the start the baby runs through a womans legs and has a finger pointing upwards and when Jessica Rabbit crashes her car if you forward frame by frame apparently you get a glimpse of her ****.

The last one is true, not sure about the first.
