Character mistake: In the scene with the ants, Jones refers to them as "Siafu", which is actually the Swahili name for driver ants which are native to Africa, not South America.
Continuity mistake: At the beginning when Indy is talking to Spalko, his hands keep alternating from being in his pockets to just resting at his sides between shots.
Dean Charles Stanforth: We seem to have reached the age where life stops giving us things and starts taking them away.
Trivia: In the Mayan temple, Indy comments "I have a bad feeling about this." This line was a running gag in George Lucas' Star Wars saga, and was used by Harrison Ford at least once. (01:46:10)

Chosen answer: Because the film had a global release date, and premiered the same day in every country in the world. Obviously, the studio felt this was the best day to do it.
