I apologize if this has been covered on the forum before, but these questions must surely have resonated within the minds of all self-respecting King Kong fans, I know they often return to my...

I'm sure this issue has been discussed here before. Those questions you raised have certainly occurred to me as well and there seems no way that Kong could have been floated well over thousand of...

telogenus: the easiest way to transport Kong over thousands of miles is on a vast raft, as you rightly say. It would be pretty easy to construct a raft from Skull Island natural materials. However,...

The big ape on a raft would also be an issue as to the Venture being spotted by another ship in its very long journey from the Indian ocean back to New York City. I mean, the oceans were full of ships...

Simple, Denham bribed the tribal witch doctor on the island to conjure up a spell to float Kong through the air like a hot air balloon to the venture. The same spell levitated the big boy to the...

Telegonus; going back to the raft idea, I've gave it some more thought, and Kong could be kept hidden by a vast framed canvas canopy, [let's just assume that the Venture has the canvas onboard...

That's one thing I'll give credit to the 1976 version for. They show Kong in transit in a large cargo bay.

Well in my version, they use gas bombs, which they pick up at each port, I guess they use smaller ones than the ones they used on the Island

Brains must surely come into this as well. sthorntn! Brawn AND brains are required in this instance, I'll wager.......So, chucking out the 'raft' idea as too limiting, let's go with the 'loading Kong...

Wasn't Kong "only" 18 ft tall or thereabout on the Island, and maybe 24 ft tall in New York (not ever 40')? Maybe they got him there before he "grewsome," as Forry Ackerman might say. Probably no...

I think that it's pretty straight forward what they did. They just detoured to the island of Colossa, borrowed some giant Roc shell, shrunk Kong down to the size of Cathryn Grant, and took him back to...

I've always thought that the Venture's crew would build a raft to float Kong back to the ship, just as Denham had ordered. They would then load the drugged Kong into the Venture's cargo hold, and head...

And while we're at it, how in the world did they get Faro Island Kong on the raft while he was passed out drunk? THAT Kong was like 8x as big as the 33 Kong!

I think it's fair to say that the transportation of Kong to New York issue is a plot hole. Yes, they build a raft and all but transporting a giant ape the size of Kong would be nearly impossible given...
