Jack: Be the hero of your own life story.
Alex Rover: Don't hand me that line - I wrote that line.

Jack: You got so much of your mother in you, you know that?
Nim Rusoe: That's a good thing, right?

Edmund's Mother: This is no place for games.
Edmund's Father: It's the perfect place for games.

Factual error: Alex Rover travels from San Francisco in a large plane to Borneo, then a small plane to Rarotonga, then a small boat to Tuvalu, then a helicopter to the Buccaneer cruise ship (located close enough to Nim's Island at 20S-162W for her to row there). My globe shows these places to generally be too far from one another given the particular mode of transport. Borneo and Tuvalu are too far out of the way to fit with this story.
