No, I don't mean the use of the word "modern". I mean that they claim a year or some such like that. And then the movie is actually further on in the future.

Looking at movie-mistakes.com is helping to remind me somewhat. It's not the poster. The trailer talks about how in 2008, the dragons will attack and mankind will begin their resistance or something along those lines. Leading viewers to believe that the movie takes place in 2008. And they show the kid discovering the egg in the mines. However they don't tell you that this kid is the younger version of Christian Bales' character. Another 12 years pass before the action of the story takes place. The movie takes place in 2020. That's what it was. And to top that off, a feature on the DVD talks about the movie taking place in 2084. I think they need to get their stories straight.
