The reason Interview with a vampire makes more sense is because there are multiple vampires in a movie and only one of them gives an interview (actually multiple interviews are implied). saying interview with the vampire makes it sounds like there is only one vampire around.

You missed an important one. In Cool Hand Luke people often think of the line “What we have here is failure to communicate.’ But the actual line is, “What WE’VE GOT here is failure to communicate.”

Fun fact from the literary side of things: in the original series of stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Sherlock Holmes never says “Elementary, my dear Watson.” Though he says many things to similar effect.

And though the phrase has been uttered countless times in modern adaptations and references, this misquote is almost as old as the books themselves.

In reply to Smokingspoon. As for the mirror thing, maybe it's just for the disney movie. Because, again, in french it's clearly 'Mirror, Mirror' being said.

Another Star Trek misquote that used to be talked about was “He’s dead, Jim” from Dr. McCoy. It was a popular phrase but someone pointed out that McCoy never actually says it in those words on the show. But then people realized that the original episodes ran about 50 minutes but by the ’80s had been cut down to about 45 minutes for syndication and some lines and scenes that actually existed were cut, and those were the only versions people had seen. According to Memory Alpha, McCoy actually does say “He’s dead, Jim” several times.
