Agent Smith NEVER said"Mr Annnderson, we've been expecting you."
Morpheus NEVER said "What if I told you everything you knew was a lie"
Watch the movie or that specific scene again if you doubt.

So why would the Mandela Effect only effect movies, TV, books, etc. as opposed to radically changing lives? Like people waking up with a different spouse or suddenly being shocked that a dead relative was no longer dead?
Mandela Effect is just people forgetting shit or being misinformed.
it doesnt happen only in movies, do some googling and you would see it have real world implications as well.
shareRight. Some people didn't pay attention to current events and thought Mandela died years earlier. Again, these are people who simply were not paying attention. I have yet to see South Africans forget this. It's always non-South Africans and the explanation is easy.
What I'n referring to are actual, personal, events in peoples' lives. If it's as wide spread as claimed, people should have been waking up, wondering why they have different jobs, why their grandmother has come back from the dead, why their last names are spelled differently (as is apparently the case for the writers of Berenstain Bears), etc.
It may be present in their lives but usually the changes tend to be subtle that most wont notice them or just thought they remember it wrong. Thus changes in personal lives are much harder to detect as only the person themself will know. Whereas things that seem different in the world are easier to notice since there will be others that will feel that change as well.
shareThe Berenstain/Bernstein issue hinges on people’s last names being changed through time. The Mandela issue revolves around whether or not a man died twenty years earlier. That is not subtle. Those are major changes to the personal lives of several people.
Why is this only happening to famous people and not regular folks? There is a very logical answer for it that does not involve universes being destroyed or whatever.
who knows for sure it doesnt affect others, its just that the effects doesnt affect everybody thus it tend to go unnoticed by the general populace.
shareIt only "effects" famous people or works of fiction. The reason why is because people see a movie, then go about their lives, and misquote them years after the fact (usually due to a meme or parodies). Or they read a set of children's books that already contains a hard-to-spell name, don't pick up another book for 30 years, and would obviously not know how to spell that name. Or they simply think a politician form anther country died years ago because they are not from that particular country (once again, no South African has ever been confused about Nelson Mandela's death). It's a simple matter of people having shit memories.
If it were real, statistically, there would have to be mass hysteria as the general public would find themselves unable to remember their own lives properly.
Agreed. Like how Darth Vader did not say "Luke, I am your father." By adding "Luke," it provides more context that it is a Star Wars reference, and people chose to repeat that version of it.
The Berenstain Bears were always the Berenstain Bears. People just assumed it was Berenstein or Bernstein because Stein is more common than Stain as part of a last name. But a lot of us picked up on the unusual spelling when we were young and made note of it. Those that didn't became baffled as to why they didn't pick up on it before, which is probably because they didn't care.
Same thing with the Scarecrow in Wizard of Oz holding a gun. Even if they saw it, nobody cared enough to bring attention to it.
