Template:Kaiju Infobox Unmade Arsinoitherium is an extinct genus of prehistoric mammal from the Late Eocene epoch. It was planned to appear in the original King Kong using a stop motion puppet originally created for Creation before its role was replaced by Styracosaurus. Arsinoitherium was later considered for the 2005 remake directed by Peter Jackson but was scrapped once again.
History
King Kong (1933)
In the test reel, the Arsinoitherium was to appear during the log scene where it chased and charged at the Venture crewman out of the jungle and leading them to the log that King Kong attacks. Director Merian C. Cooper then reshot the scene using Styracosaurus instead.[1] Ultimately, the Arsinoitherium and the Styracosaurus was cut from the final film.
King Kong (2005)
In early pre-production in 2003, Greg Boradmore created a piece of concept art he later referred to as "Rhino on Holiday" that prominently featured an Arsinoitherium in the jungle with two pterosaurs similar to Dimorphodon and Peteinosaurus around the animal.[2]
Trivia
- The 1933 stop motion puppet had wooden horns attached to its armature and covered in liquid latex.[3]
