Non-topical film question

[Stan Cummins' Tash]

Please bear with me. I never saw the League of Extaordinary Gentlemen film, but I remember seeing the trailer years ago at the cinema and thought I spotted "Sunderland" as the only name next to the map of England at the start. I could never convince anyone else that I'd seen this, but I've just seen the trailer on youtube and it's there!

Can anyone explain why or am I just going a bit mad?

Just looked and next to Ireland it says Ireland and next to England I can't make it out. It is next to where Sunderland is on the map though, but I don't think it says Sunderland.

Definitely looks like it says Sunderland to me.

Yep, it does indeed say Sunderland

Yeah it does look like it on that. But looks like they've tried to blur it out a bit!

Probably just random mate.

Nah I'm not buying that. The only name next to the map of england is our city? Must have a significance? Never bothered with the film cos it was supposed to be crap.

At a guess it'd be something to do with the shipbuilding, looking at the map and the other place names that are on there they seem to have some sort of nautical connection.

Great spot! Still an utterly shit movie though.
