Re: four tiny _KONG_ questions

According to the book "The World of Kong: A Natural
History of Skull Island"  The V-rex (Vastatosaurus
rex) is a descendant of Tyrannosaurus rex.

Considering the general appearance of the Skull Island
dinosaurs, I'm wondering if Peter Jackson deliberately
wanted them to look like dinosaurs would have been
depicted in the 1930's, since the film is set in
1933...
