Mr. Hayes:
If someone were to tell you this ship was headed for Singapore... what would you say?

Lumpy:
I would say they're full of it, Mr Hayes. Well, we turned southwest last night.

Carl Denham:
Gentlemen, please. We're not looking for trouble.

Jimmy:
No. You're looking for something else.

Carl Denham:
Yes, we are. We're going to find Skull Island. Find it, film it, show it to the world. For 25 cents, you get to see the last blank space on the map.

Lumpy:
I wouldn't be so sure of that.

Preston:
What do you mean?

Lumpy:
Seven years ago, me and Mr. Hayes were working our passage... on a Norwegian bark.

Mr. Hayes:
We picked up a castaway. We found him in the water. He'd been drifting for days.

Lumpy:
His ship had run aground on an island way west of Sumatra. An island hidden in fog. He spoke of a huge wall... built so long ago... no one knew who'd made it. A wall 100 foot high... as strong today as it was ages ago.

Preston:
Why'd they build the wall?

Lumpy:
Well, the castaway, he spoke of a creature... neither beast nor man... but something monstrous, living behind that wall.

Carl Denham:
[unimpressed] A lion or a tiger. A man-eater. That's how all these stories start.

Preston:
What else did he say?

Lumpy:
Nothing. When we found him the next morning, he'd stuck a knife through his heart.

Carl Denham:
[laughing] Mmm-hmm. Sorry, fellows. You'll have to do better than that. Monsters belong in B movies.

Mr. Hayes:
If you find this place... if you go ashore with your friends and your cameras... you won't come back. Just as long as you understand that.
