Directed by: Sam Weisman
Starring: Brendan Fraser, Leslie Mann, Thomas Haden Church, Richard Roundtree
Visible crew/equipment: The last time we see George in California he is running down the road. When the camera moves up you can see the shadow of the camera man and camera crane on the ground as clear as day.
Visible crew/equipment: When George is running back to the jungle from the city, he journeys in a boat along a river. Unfortunately, you can see the wake made by the camera boat in front of the boat in which George is travelling.
Continuity mistake: In the scene where George hits the tree and falls on a branch with green stuff on it, you can catch a glimpse of his briefs.
Narrator: And so, onward and upward the tired trekkers trudged on feverished footsies over perilous paths. When they beheld the mighty Ape Mountain, the reacted with awe.
Group: Awwww.
Narrator: I said, "Awe." A-W-E.
Group: Ooh.
Narrator: That's better.
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.
Answer: They never mention what ultimately happens to his parents. However it's mentioned they "searched high and low" for George and never found him. The animation even shows all the passengers calling out for George, to suggest they also aided in the search.
