Carl Denham: [just before he instructs Ann on how to act in front of the camera] I see you've put on the "Beauty and the Beast" costume! Ann Darrow: Uh, huh... it's the prettiest!
Carl Denham: Holy mackrel, do you think I want to take a woman along? Charles Weston: Then why? Carl Denham: Because the public - bless 'em - must have a pretty face.
Carl Denham: Whaddaya think of that wall, Skipper? Captain Englehorn: Colossal; might almost be Egyptian. Carl Denham: Yeah, but what's on the other side of that wall; that's what I wanna find out.
Nalaman kong ang mundo, sa totoong buhay, ay hindi 'yung makulay na murals na nakikita sa mgaa pre-school. Hindi ito laging may rainbow, araw, ibon, puno, at mga bulaklak.
You really can't do a remake. I mean, 'King Kong' needed its turn to be remade. It needed an update. But the 'Bad News Bears,' or 'The Shaggy D.A.,' those are classic movies. I think they did a good job of remaking them, but it's just not the same th...
I just took the idea that King Kong was too big for everything and reversed it and put George in a land of giants, which is basically what every kid goes through anyway - that, you know, the world is made for grownups, for tall people, for the giants...
This time we'll be fighting for the nation. The company commander says that it's better to be the ghost of a fallen soldier than a nationless slave. For the sake of our fellow countrymen, our families and our children, we have to resist to the very e...
We've never had nannies. We've had great grandparents, great support from family, and the kids have been on every set: they've seen me play Gollum, King Kong, Captain Haddock, the lot. They totally get it, and they want to go into the business. Ruby,...
Major T. J. "King" Kong: Goldie, how many times have I told you guys that I don't want no horsing around on the airplane?
Major T. J. "King" Kong: Stay on the bomb run, boys! I'm gonna get them doors open if it harelips ever'body on Bear Creek!
Major T. J. "King" Kong: I don't give a hoot in Hell how you do it, you just get me to the Primary, ya hear!
Did you happen to catch the film I did between 'Lord of the Rings' and 'Kong?' It was a nice little Jennifer Garner comedy, '13 Going on 30,' and I play her boss. In my big scene, I get to moonwalk - pretty well, I thought - to Michael Jackson.
Captain Englehorn: And you expect to photograph it? Carl Denham: If it's there, you bet I'll photograph it! Jack Driscoll: Suppose it doesn't like having its picture taken? Carl Denham: Well, now you know why I brought along those cases of gas bombs
Jack Driscoll: There's one thing we haven't thought of... Police Lieutenant: What? Jack Driscoll: Airplanes. If he should put Ann down, and they can fly close enough to pick him off without hitting her... Police Lieutenant: You're right! Planes! Call...
After 'Kong,' my knuckles have never recovered because I had to wear very heavy weights on my forearms and around my hips and ankles to get the sense of size and scale of the movement of the character... You are telling your body that you are these t...
The strong man lit a cigarette. It looked too frail for his hand. They looked like King Kong and Fay Wray, that hand, that cigarette. There was a movie going on right under his nose and he didn't even know. The guy had about one brain cell and he was...
Ann Darrow: Do you always take the pictures yourself? Carl Denham: Ever since a trip I made to Africa. I'd have got a swell picture of a charging rhino, but the cameraman got scared. The darn fool, I was right there with a rifle! Seems he didn't trus...
Theatre Patron: I can't sit so close to the screen; it hurts my eyes. Usher: This isn't a moving picture, ma'am. Theatre Patron: What? But Mr. Denham makes those pictures with those darling lions and tigers and things. Usher: This is more in the natu...
Carl Denham: [the witch doctor has complained to the Chief] What's that? Captain Englehorn: Must be the Witch Doctor. He says the ceremony is spoiled because we've seen it. Carl Denham: Well, calm the old boy down! What's the word for friend? Captain...
Carl Denham: [protesting the agent's lack of confidence in the safety of Denham's voyage] You act as if I've never brought anybody back alive! Look at the Captain and first mate - - they've gone on several of my last missions, and they don't look any...
Major T. J. "King" Kong: Well, I've been to one world fair, a picnic, and a rodeo, and that's the stupidest thing I ever heard come over a set of earphones. You sure you got today's codes?
