Do you believe everything that you see?  email this discussion to a friend?

I decided to start this discussion after watching a movie with a friend. My friend had never seen the "Blaire Witch Project". She was interested in the movie, mostly because someone told her that it was based on true events. Now, I am just as superstitious as the next person, but not for one minute did I actually believe that this movie was based on true events. This got me thinking. There are a lot of movies out there that say that they are based on true events, and not many of them actually are. Take Clover field for example. This movie is supposed to be based on real events recorded on some guys camcorder. Is it real? No. So I have to ask: Do you believe you are watching something real when you come across these "based on true events" movies? Why or why not?

They said the movie Paranormal is also based on true events. But they just said that just to get people to watch their film.
