本片段对白：

Sean: Ladies and gentlemen, I give you...

Hank: The Mysterious Island.

Kalani: What is this place?

Gabato: Whoa! This island, it shrunk us!

Hank: Or turned us into giants? Sean, what does Verne say about this?

Sean: It's one of the first laws of island biogeography. Small animals become large and large animals become small. Lilliputian. Swift alluded to it in Gulliver's Travels.

Gabato: I'd like to keep him as a pet. I could knit him a little trunk-warmer.

Hank: See you, buddy.

Sean: Hey, check it out. You guys see that smoke? That's gotta be my grandpa's campsite.

Kalani: How do you know?

Sean: What else could it be? The natives sparking up a barbecue, getting ready to cook us for dinner. Only one way to find out.

Kalani: Whoa, time-out! Look, I hope your grandfather's okay, but my father and I aren't going. We're headed back to the beach.

Sean: To do what?

Gabato: SpellSOS with seashells and maybekelp.

Sean: Kelp? There's a boat-eating, plane-eating hurricane out there 24/7. Nobody's gonna see your kelp.

Hank: Sean's absolutely right. We need to stick together, find his grandfather, then use his radio to call for help.

Kalani: Fine. Just know that if we get torn to bits, I'm blaming you.

Gabato: I'm blaming you too.

Hank: Real smooth.

Sean: What did I do? Seriously, what did I say? What did I do?

Hank: SPF 100? You squeeze it and a sweater comes out?

Sean: Yeah, that's funny, Navy man. Don't come crying to me when you're as red as a tomato.

Hank: Do I look like I burn?

Gabato: Oh, man, that's one gooey rock.

Hank: No one move. These aren't rocks. They're eggs.

Gabato: Get out. Why don't we crack a couple open and make some omelets?

Sean: Not a good idea.

Gabato: Come on, man, I haven't had breakfast yet.

Kalani: Shh! Where there are giant eggs, there must be a giant mother.

Hank: It had to be a lizard. Why couldn't it be snakes?

Sean: Okay. Okay, we just need to move quickly but carefully. Lizards have incredible hearing and an acute sense of smell.

Gabato: Uh-oh.

Hank: Let's move. Just move.

Gabato: We are literally walking on eggshells. Ooh! Guys?

Hank: Don't take another step.

Kalani: Papa, be careful.

Gabato: Don't worry, honey. I got this. See? No problem. Oh! Oh, man!

Hank: Run, run, run!

Sean: Head for the jungle!

Hank: Faster! Faster! Let's go! Go! Go!

Sean: Move! Come on!

Hank: This way! Let's go!

Gabato: Go, go, go! Move!

Hank: It's right behind you! Hurry!

Kalani: Come on!

Hank: Sean!

Sean: Hey, Godzilla! Oh, crap. Oh, man!

Gabato: Oh, go, go, go!

Hank: Come on, come on!

Kalani: Come on, keep moving!

Gabato: Hurry!

Hank: Back! Back! Back! Sean, get behind me. Sean, backpack! Back! Back!

Sean: Hank! Hank!

Hank: Back! Not now, Sean. She's scared!

Sean: No, she's cold-blooded and attracted to heat!

Hank: That's emasculating.

Sean: Now what?

Hank: Now there's only one thing left. The thunder cookie. I think I just made it worse.

Gabato: Whoa!

Kalani: Aah! Hope she doesn't like Polynesian food.

Gabato: I hope she don't like food with poop in its pants!

(The giant lizard was hit by wood)

Hank: Go, go, go! Everybody okay?

Kalani: Yeah.

(laughing voice)

Alexander: Well, don't just stand there. Applaud!

Sean: Grandpa! That was amazing.

Alexander: A pitch-perfect frill-necked lizard mating call. They fall for it all the time.

Sean: This is Gabato and Kalani. Their helicopter brought us here.

Alexander: Pleasure. Pleasure.

Hank: And I'm Sean's stepfather, Hank Parsons. I helped Sean crack your code.

Alexander: You're the stepfather? Well, maybe that's why it took so long, eh? After all, how hard can it be to crack a code by converting a string of Vernian characters into a list of dots and dashes.

Hank: Or you could have just sent a message not in code.

Alexander: There it is, definitive proof that you are not an Anderson.

Sean: Mm-hm.

Gabato: Ooh. Ooh!

Hank: You know, I think it's best we get out of here. After that mating call of yours, she may have ideas about making you her husband.

Alexander: Oh, witty. Good for you, Henry.

Hank: The name's Hank. It's never Henry. Just Hank.

Alexander: Ah. I see you're a man of incisive decision. Why don't you lead the way? Oh, actually we want to live through the night. Yes. So maybe you should all follow me. Come on.

Gabato: Hank? I'm following you.

Hank: All right, come on. Go ahead.

《格列佛游记》中的小人国

格列佛是英国一个酷爱航海旅行的人。他年青时学医，后来在海轮上担任外科医生，多次环游世界，到过许多地方，有过不少的奇遇。最值得称道的是他到小人国、大人国、飞岛国、慧马国的四次游历。下面便是他在小人国——利立浦特国的游历见闻。

一六九九年五月四日，格列佛应“羚羊号”船长的雇请，乘船到太平洋一带航海，因遇风暴，“羚羊号”触礁沉没了。他和五个水手跳入救生艇中逃生，可是半途那艇也翻了。格列佛只身被风浪刮到利立浦特岛上。上岸后，他由于过度疲乏，躺在草地上酣睡了一觉。待他醒来时，他觉得全身都动弹不得，他的四肢、身体被紧紧捆缚住了，连他的头发也一根根地被缚牢在地上。他只能仰天躺着，太阳晒得他睁不开眼睛。这是，他听到四周有一种轻微的嘈杂的响声。同时，他感到他的左腿上有生物在爬动。那东西渐渐爬上他的身体，走到他胸膛，又去到他的下颔边。格列佛略略把眼光朝下一看，只见一个不到六英寸的小人，两手执着弓箭，背着箭壶，神气傲然地领头走着，后面跟着四十几个小人，全是戎装打扮。格列佛大喊了一声，吓得他们拼命奔逃。有的从他身上滚落到地面，有的自相践踏负了伤。

过了一会儿，小人又围拢过来。格列佛感到不耐烦了，把左手略微一翻动，便有几百支箭向他射来，他觉得被针剌一般。格列佛只好躺着不动。小人在他右耳约三、四码的地方，搭起了一座高台，一位很体面的长官模样的人站在高台上，向他发布演说，意思是要他投降。格列佛别无出路，只好表示归顺。于是有五十个小人跑上前来，割断了绳索，给他松了绑。格列佛用手指了指口，表示他饿得要命了。小人便在他身体两侧，安放了几把梯子，上百个小人挑着篮子，把一篮一篮的食物轮流往他的口里倒下去。格列佛一口得吞食二、三篮的食物，小人应接不暇地倒。他们为格列佛食量之大，惊奇不已。

接着小人用了一万五千匹御马把他拉进京城。皇帝(他比他的臣民高一指甲)带领他的大臣们站在一座高塔上瞻仰格列佛的风采。小人国的居民也络绎不绝地跑来观看，因为这是他们从未见过的巨人。皇帝召开大臣会议，讨论如何处置格列佛的问题。有人担心格列佛的食量太大，他一人的伙食，可供一千七百二十个小人的食用。光饮食一项，就有可能引起国内的饥荒;有人主张把格列佛弄死，但又担心他的庞大的尸体发臭后，会造成京城的瘟疫。最后，皇帝决定暂时让格列佛留着，派了五百人给他当差，还叫了三百个裁缝，按国内最时兴的样式，给他赶制了一件衣服。

一天，格列佛得到国王的允许，让他参观皇城和皇宫。那皇城四周是城墙，高二英尺半，阔十一寸，每十尺之间筑一雉堡。格列佛从西门跨进了城，他小心翼翼地在街上走着，生怕踩伤了市民。他身上穿着短衣，因为他怕衣襟挂坏了屋脊和房檐。街道两旁的房屋都是三层至五层，每幢房子窗口和阳台都挤满了看热闹的市民。两条主要街道有五尺开阔，那些巷子只能容纳格列佛的一只脚。皇宫在城市中央，有一带高二尺的御墙。国王希望格列佛参观他宏大的宫阙，但格列佛无法进去。后来，他想出一个妙法：在御园中选了最大的几棵树木，用小刀把它削制成三尺来高的两张椅子。一张放在外庭，一张放在内庭，他踩着椅子进入了宫殿，躺在宫内一块空地上，抬头仔细观看宫殿。在那儿，他看到了豪华的陈设和簇拥着婢仆的皇后和公主。

小人国的幅员并不大。他们有着奇特的风俗。国王在选拔官吏时，让人们在绳上跳舞，谁跳得高便可以当大官。财政大臣被认为是全国跳得最高的人(超出别人一英寸)。在盛大的节日里，官员们还在皇帝执着的横杆上下表演特技。按表演技艺的高低，分别赏给不同颜色的丝带。这个国家有两个政党。他们的区别是一党穿的鞋跟高些，另一党的鞋跟低些。高跟党自认为是合乎古代制度的，而国王则偏向低跟党。因此，政府的官员都是低跟党的人担任。两党仇恨很深。皇太子则两边讨好。为此，他的鞋跟一只高，一只低。

这个国家常和邻近岛国不来夫斯古发生战争。战争起因是利立浦特岛国改变了吃鸡蛋的习惯，不先磕破大端，而是要人们先磕破小端。国内那些惯于遵循古制的人不服，分成在“大端派”和“小端派”。他们互相攻击对方是“异端邪说”。“大端派”在国内遭到镇压，他们便逃亡到不来夫斯古，引起两个帝国的战争。不久前，不来夫斯古新造了一批战舰，准备再度和利立浦特国开战。格列佛为了表示对利立浦特的忠心，他跨过海面，用绳子把敌方的战舰全部拉了过来。为此，国王赐给他尊贵的爵位。接着，国王又命令他把不来夫斯古灭掉，把它沦为自己的一个行省。格列佛不同意，他对皇帝说：“我永远不愿做人家的工具，使一个自由、勇敢的民族沦为奴隶。”国王和大臣便对他不满起来，要加害于他。

一次，皇宫失火。由于运水困难，格列佛撒了一泡尿浇灭了大火。这使皇后十分反感。加上海军大臣嫉妒他的功劳，财政大臣又怀疑他的妻子和格列佛私通，于是国王召开了一次密谋会，要给格列佛定叛国罪，并把他的双眼刺瞎。格列佛得知后，慌忙逃到不来夫斯古国。再从那儿找到了一只小船，便乘船离去。他在公海上遇到一只英国商船。他便搭乘这只商船，于是一七○二年回到伦敦。从而结束了他的第一次游历。(来源：百度知道)
