King Kong (2005)

Corrected entry: The behaviour of the carnivorous dinosaurs in the film is completely false. T-Rexes would never use so much effort to chase after Anne and Kong. They are scavengers. T-Rexes never hunted because they couldn't risk falling down - they would never be able to get up because of their small arms and would subsequently die. Also, they were so territorial, they would have been more apt to kill each other during the chase.

Correction: 65 million years of further evolution may have changed their behavioural patterns. And the question of whether or not T. Rex were hunters or scavengers has not yet been resolved with certainty, there are evidence and arguments supporting both theories.

King Kong (2005)

Corrected entry: There are errors in the way Kong uses facial expressions - he should never have laughed similarly to humans. An ape laughs with his lips sticking out like a "huh huh" sound. Anytime the lips are pulled back indicate a sense of fear.

Correction: Kong does not need to use the same facial expressions as regular apes. He is an entirely different species, who has evolved by its' own for thousands (if not millions) of years. This might as well also have changed the way they use their face to express emotions.

King Kong (2005)

Corrected entry: The show where King Kong was being showed off at occurred at night according to the signs, however when King Kong gets to the top of the Empire State building the sun is coming up. We can tell it's not the sun going down because during the final scene the sun has fully come up. This means he must have been rampaging around the city for about 10 hours, even though the camera was with him the whole time.

Correction: Kong does more than rampage through New York. After Ann has come to him, he goes wandering off very quietly through the streets, before ending up in a park. And since the camera does NOT follow him around on this whole trip, we have no way of knowing for how long they simply walked around in the streets.
