Just saw it again for the first time in 8 years. This movie was great! The Sea World Undersea setting, the TERRIBLE effects work (like the still frame of a shark being pulled towards the camera), and the cheesy 3-D effects (the guy's severed arm drifting towards the camera). Not to mention this movie had the best death for a character: getting sucked into the shark's mouth and being crushed from the inside. :lol

Oh, and who could forget:

Jaws 3 was so sad. So of course I watch it everytime it's on TV! The 3D effects are simply hilarious, but nothing beats the teeth that fly into the screen to form a mouth when the shark explodes at the end :lol (sometimes this is shown, sometimes it's not). Jaws is tied with Raiders for my favourite movie ever, and I like Jaws 2 a lot as well. Jaws 3...eh, not so much. Hard to say which is worse between this and Revenge...it's probably a flip of the coin.

I was six years old when I saw this movie in the theater and it terrified the hell out of me (especially the arm floating in the water!). I think we stayed for more than half of the film, but at some point I did have to beg my Mom to leave. And we did.

Hey, I was six! :lol

 

[Shinobi]

Hell I couldn't watch Jaws all the way through till I was 15. :lol Of course when I watch it now I laugh out loud at the death scenes, as if it's some black comedy.

"This time its personal!!!"

"This time its personal!!!"

That was actually the fourth movie.

 

[Duderz]

The SUPERIOR movie, at that.

OMG! There was a 4th???

 

[SuperPac]

I think it's time for a Jaws 3 remake. What's Tim Burton up to?

 

[Shinobi]

OMG! There was a 4th???

"Come and get me you son of a bitch."

I still find it funny that Sea World agreed to have this film set in their park. If I were running a amusement/educational/animal thing, I don't think I'd want it associated with shark attacks.

Jaws 4 is worth it for when the shark eats Mario Van Peebles and his bad jamaican accent.

 

[3rdman]

Ah! Yes, now I remember...I saw Jaws 3D in the theater when it came out too. Over the years I've lumped the 3rd and 4th version into one in my head.

BTW, have you noticed how Michael Caine seemed to star in every movie between 1980 and 1989? He was the eighties version of Samuel Jackson.

But Samuel L. Jackson still has the best movie shark death ever.

 

[Shinobi]

He had the funniest shark death, sure...but no one and nothing touches Quint.

Though come to think of it, Chrissie's death is pretty awesome as well...

 

[Ninja Scooter]

even though you don't see much, the shark eating that kid on the raft is pretty brutal too.

:lol No kidding. That accent was terrible.

Speaking of his death scene...did you know there were 2 cuts of the movie and in one of them he lives? After they kill the shark he floats by the survivors and he's still alive. They go over to him and he's all chewed up to pieces and he starts chatting up a storm with them and making jokes. Its hilarious because of how ridiculous it is. I've only seen this cut of the movie once and that was when the movie aired on cable tv (USA network I think).

 

[Shinobi]

:lol Yeah, there's at least two versions of Revenge, and I've heard there's as many as four out there. There's also two ways where the shark dies after that boat hits it...in one he just hangs on the prong, while on the other he literally explodes. :lol Revenge is funny as fuck.

even though you don't see much, the shark eating that kid on the raft is pretty brutal too.

Yeah, true...all you see is this geyser of thick red blood and the boy screaming under water. Just chilling stuff.
