Theatre Patron: Say, what's Denham got, anyway? Another theatre patron: [in doubtful pre-disgust] Well, it better be good after all this ballyhoo!
Charlie: [offering native jewelry] Skipper, look what I find. Captain Englehorn: A native bracelet! Charlie: Crazy black man been here.
Lieutenant Lothar Zogg: Hey, where'd Major Kong go?
The Empire State, a lonely dinosaur, rose sadly at midtown, highest tower, tallest mountain, longest road, King Kong's eyrie, meant to moor airships, alas.
If you're brave enough to try, you might be able to catch a train from UnLondon to Parisn't, or No York, or Helsunki, or Lost Angeles, or Sans Francisco, or Hong Gone, or Romeless.
I don't think I had a script on 'King Kong.' But usually you read a script and then you go and audition for it. It's rare when there's no script. I sort of like the latter better, because I'm more successful at it.
Stef: [they hear a deep growling sound coming from behind a large, metal door] ... Chunk, I hope that was your stomach. Mikey: No. That's the 'It.' Chunk: Sounds like Kong.
Carl Denham: [warning Jack about women] Some big, hardboiled egg gets a look at a pretty face and bang, he cracks up and goes sappy!
[Captain translates Native Chief's comments on Ann Darrow] Captain Englehorn: He says, "Look at the golden woman." Carl Denham: Yeah, blondes are scarce around here.
Jack Driscoll: What do you call that thing? Carl Denham: Something from the dinosaur family. Jack Driscoll: Dinosaur, eh? Carl Denham: Yes, Jack; a prehistoric beast.
Ann Darrow: Don't you think the skipper's a sweet old lamb? Jack Driscoll: Ha ha ha! I'd hate to have him hear me say that!
[first lines] Charles Weston: Say, is this the moving picture ship? Watchman: The Venture? Yeah. Are you going on this crazy voyage? Charles Weston: What's crazy about it?
Charlie: [after finding a native bracelet on the deck of the ship] All hand on deck! Everybody on deck! Everybody on deck! All hand on deck! Everybody on deck! Everybody on deck!
Carl Denham: [talking to Jack across the ravine] Why, you wouldn't follow that beast alone? Jack Driscoll: Someone's got to stay on his trail while it's hot!
Carl Denham: Listen, there are dozens of girls in this town tonight that are in more danger than they'll ever see with me. Jack Driscoll: Yeah, but they know that kind of danger.

That's what life is all about - you're busy, I'm busy, and the end result is death. Sooner or later, that's what it comes to. ("The Death Of Wang Asao")
I'm into classic games like Donkey Kong, and also collect vintage tour t-shirts - everything from Olivia Newton-John to Duran Duran. I've got a Chicago one worth $100.
The thing about playing percussion is that you can create all these emotions that can be sometimes beautiful, sometimes really ugly, or sometimes sweet, sometimes as big as King Kong and so on. And so there can be a real riot out there, or it can be ...
Carl Denham: Listen - I'm going out and make the greatest picture in the world. Something that nobody's ever seen or heard of. They'll have to think up a lot of new adjectives when I come back.
Theatre Patron: Say, what is it, anyhow? Theatre Patron: I hear it's a kind of a gorilla. Theatre Patron: Gee - ain't we got enough of them in New York?
