* FollowTheLeader: The scene where an unidentified saboteur (later revealed to be Canton) uses a virus to shut down all the ship's system clearly takes its lead from the similar scene in ''Film/JurassicPark'' where the park's systems get shut down.
Added DiffLines:
** Another difference in the early script is that Canton used an EMP bomb to destroy the electrical systems of the ''Argonautica'', rather than a computer virus. This noticeably creates a plot hole in the finished film, as Canton still acts as though the ship's systems have been physically destroyed, something that would be all-but-impossible for a virus to do.
** Canton was originally supposed to be an EvilBrit named Nigel Canton, while the ''Argonautica'' captain was a Frenchman named Jean-Baptiste Delcroix.

** Believe it or not, this was originally intended to be a prequel to a ''Film/KingKong'' remake! The final scene was meant to serve as a teaser for a reboot titled ''Kong Rising'', with WordOfGod confirming [[spoiler:the giant creature crashing through the island jungle was to be Kong himself.]]

* AccidentallyCorrectZoology: Although the tentacles are initially identified as being Ottoia worms (which existed in the Cambrian period), there is a real life modern sea creature called the Bobbit Worm which behaves and hunts in a manner similar to them.
