It has less to do with memory and more to do with recognising when a foley effect is from an older time period or not. It's easy if you're watching say, GBU from 1966, you expect the gunshots to sound like old Colt revolver foley circa 1966! When the gun instead sounds like a modern handgun from space year 2000, you know something is up.

Music is harder to spot, it tends to be people who are obsessed with the OST CDs who notice changes.

Can you give examples for any of these? Specifically Enemy Mine, Predator and The Misfits? The Misfits Blu-ray only includes a mono track.
