Continuity mistake: In the scene where George is teaching Ursula how to swing on vines, George crashes into a tree. When he lands on the net the gorillas have you can see bits of a black trampoline underneath the cover.
Ursula's mother: When Lyle returns, this wedding will proceed as planned. If you do anything to upset that, I'll remove your reason for wearing a loincloth.
Trivia: Brendan Fraser auditioned for the role, but wasn't going to get it. However, he'd brought his dog along to the audition and it was behind the sofa. When it started barking at the end of the audition, Brendan leaped over the sofa and started barking back at it on his hands and knees. They offered him the part immediately.
