That is a fun site! They didn't list my favorite mistake. In Raiders of the Lost Ark, a map is shown that clearly reads Iran. Say, folks, Iran was Persia in the 1930s.

I could have sworn I've read that mistake before on that site....

No, it mentioned a map that said Thailand instead of Siam.
I think the Iran map was right near the first of the movie and I griped all through it about their dumb mistake. Good thing we were watching it on video and not at the real movies.

The name Thailand dates from 1939; previous to that it was Siam.
