Trivia: After the bugs attack the ship's crew, there is a triceratops drinking water from the river, a reference to the 1933 version where Kong fought with that dinosaur.

Suggested correction: Kong does not fight a triceratops in the 1933 film. The rescue party does.

It was an erased scene but that fight was taken.

Plot hole: The opening debut of Kong in NYC is sold out if we are to believe what it says on the entrance doors. Yet Driscoll was watching a play then changes his mind and shows up at the debut. How did he get a ticket?

Suggested correction: He was there when Kong was captured, one of the survivors even. Even though he wasn't given any credit it's possible he got VIP access, as a thank you.

King Kong mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Ann meets Kong on NYC street, the camera flashes back and forth between them. When it shows Kong, he is surrounded by snow, but when it shows Ann, the street doesn't have so much as a snowflake.

Jack Driscoll: Actors. They travel the world and all they see is a mirror.

Trivia: The scene where the men who fall into the ravine are attacked by giant insects is an homage to the original King Kong (1933), where a similar scene was omitted due to its (at that time) gross-out factor.

Question: If the wall around Skull island was built to keep Kong and presumably other creatures such as the dinosaurs in, why was the gate made large enough for them to get through?

Chosen answer: The original creator of King Kong, Merin C. Cooper, wrote a novel adaption of the movie in which it was explained that the gates were built by a earlier culture of islanders that were friends with the "Kong" race. The "Kongs" helped the original islanders to build their village and the wall (thus meaning the gate had to be big enough for the giant gorillas to walk through). By the time of the events of the movie, the original islanders have "died out" and their old village had been taken over by a race of more primitive natives who became enemies with the Kongs, and were trying to use the gates for safety.
