Despite the fact Packard is dangerously unstable and has his sidearm pointed at him, Randa's voice drops to a menacing tone and he started delivering a powerful DeathGlare as he tells Packard about how the battleship he served on was destroyed by a Kaiju, and how it lead him to search for more. By the time he's done, Packard is visibly nervous, quickly holstering his gun, and seems to be actually intimidated by the old sailor's glare.

* Nieves wants to abort the mission due to how dangerous the storm surrounding the island looks while Randa thinks this is their best and only shot. So they turn to leave it up to Packard. Packard decides to go for it and leads into the fray. The moment they enter everything rattles and alarms blare everywhere and it doesn't seem like the helicopters will make it. Yet the entire time Packard is calmly telling a story and keeps pushing everyone and before they know it the team clears the storm. Goes to show Packard's medals were not for decoration.

* The bar fight in which we're introduced to Conrad - he first demolishes a guy coming at him from behind with a knife with his pool cue (and we were given no prior indication he was even aware of the guy). Then, when the man's accomplice starts throwing pool balls at him, he first dodges one at very close range, then smacks the second one back by using the cue like a baseball bat, knocking him clean out.

* The marketing for the movie is similar to that of ''Film/{{Godzilla 2014}}'', barely showing the titular monster. What little we do see foreshadows the awesomeness of Kong, such as his hand swiping a helicopter, the distant shots from the perspective of the copters, or the shot of him rising up in front of a soldier.
** Look closely. He's not just rising up over a soldier, he's rising up over ''two men who were having a knife fight''. His head alone is large enough to highlight how insignificant their fight is.
* This line, courtesy of Creator/SamuelLJackson's character, definitely counts as a BadassBoast.
-->''It's time to show that MAN is king.''
* The breathtaking shots of Skull Island in the trailers, especially the ones that are homages to classic Vietnam War movie imagery, are just astonishing to look at and make the island seem incredibly vibrant.
* A shot in the second trailer shows Kong with patches of his fur ''on fire'', and he barely even seems to notice it.
* Just King Kong in general. He looks like he's more than capable of taking on Godzilla when the inevitable crossover happens.
** [[spoiler:Like Godzilla, Kong is also shown to be a surprisingly intelligent opponent -- even when he has the element of surprise, rather than charge into a fight empty-handed, he leaps down at a Skullcrawler with a huge boulder in his hands and cracks it against its head like he's dunking a basketball.]]
