References/Easter Eggs in Kong: Skull Island

time to talk about a movie from 2017 lol

Ok so...I originally was going to make this topic just for the scene when it's mentioned there's giant ants that sound like birds. Sound familiar?

I hadn't heard really anyone talk about this reference until I went snooping around and found these lists:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3731562/movieconnections

https://screenrant.com/kong-skull-island-movie-easter-eggs/

https://www.cbr.com/kong-skull-island-easter-eggs-references-facts/

and I found out there's a lot more call backs than I could realize. It's a bit refreshing because all anyone wanted to talk about were the cave paintings when me and my parents felt like the only ones who saw a Them! reference.

I've got weird personal connections to Them! and I dunno why

so um...here's this!

i've officially left. thanks for the memories!

I thought the same thing.

Another potential Easter egg is in the scene where the group first meet the Skull Islanders. Marlow attempts to calm the Iwi down stating "Everybody keep your wigs on!". In the original 1933 King Kong during the scene where Kong breaks through the wall, the natives panic, one of them attempts to free some chickens from a pen, during which he trips and gets his wig caught on the pen causing it to come off.
