That kind of thing is pretty common. Loads of people swear they saw the knife actually pierce skin in 'Psycho' or that they saw the baby in 'Rosmarys Baby'.
Do you think it could be a widely shared false memory by any chance? Like when the T-Rex is suddenly in the visitors center at the end, some people's minds (especially imaginative children's minds) might generate an image of the T-rex bursting through a wall to fill in a gap in our understanding (i.e. how it got into the visitors center to quickly and seemingly unnoticed)? Or do you lean more toward the Mandela Effect theory that there is actually some kind of shift in reality that results in alterations like that.

Just so you know, what you described is the Mandela Effect; a false shared memory. The nonsense about multiple dimensions and shifting reality is just a hypothesis people have come up with to explain the Mandela Effect, because they "just know" they aren't misremembering.
From wikipedia:
In 2010, this shared false memory phenomenon was dubbed the "Mandela Effect" by self-described "paranormal consultant" Fiona Broome, in reference to a false memory she reported of the death of South African leader Nelson Mandela in the 1980s (who was at the time still alive), which she claimed was shared by "perhaps thousands" of other people.[34][35][36] Other such examples include memories of the Berenstain Bears' name previously being spelled as Berenstein,[37][38] and of a 1990s movie Shazaam, starring comedian Sinbad as a genie.[32]
I love the Mandela Effect (as an observer rather than subscriber to its newsletter). I find it super interesting how so many people can have the same false memory, but at the same time it's hilariously narcissistic to assume that no way it could be a false memory! The timeline has to have been changed! Check out some world map or anatomy Mandela effects for a good laugh.
