Goofs:

Factual errors: When Michel gets eaten by the snake the snake carries him up and swallows him whole without constricting. Anacondas usually constrict their pray even if it isn't putting up a struggle.

Quotes:

Sam Rogers: We're in the middle of the jungle Jack, at this point your authority is what we say it is.

this is an awesome movie! (in its own special way)

well, many people would say that the second Annacondas is really dodgy, stupid and you feel less intelligent after watching it...well i must say i disagree!! this movie is so dodgy and stupid but thats what makes it so awesome! i mean come on people a movie about giant snakes eating people is never going to be educational or make any sense but who really cares??? all the characters are lovable! (there is even a very sweet little monkey!) there is lots of man candy! the captain has beautiful blue eyes, the hot Asian guy is very buff!, and there is even a cute little one who gets scared all the time! the effects aren't even that bad, they have much improved since the first one anyway! all the characters provide interest and the story line is not half bad in my opinion!!! there are heaps of good lines such as "did i say no commitments? i mean marry me!" so really in my opinion this is a stupidly awesome movie! peace out!
