      My parents let me watch it in 1990 when I was 5. It's been my favorite movie since. I remember first seeing the 25th Anniversary Remaster (the only version available now) and disappointed that they completely scrubbed elements of the effects soundtrack and replaced it with new sounds. To this day, I watch it and remember what the sound effect originally sounded like. That's how much I've seen this film.

    Worth noting: most of the Hooper/cage scene is a REAL 16 foot Great White. They hired a very short actor, gave him some ad hoc scuba lessons, put him in a scaled down cage, and dropped him in the water with that 16 footer. The shark got tangled in the lines and legitimately destroyed rhe cage with its panicked thrashing.
    The footage of "Hooper" escaping is footage of a legitimately endangered actor/stuntman. In the book, Hooper is killed, but Spielberg wasn't going to waste that footage, so Hooper in the movie survived.

    JAWS is one of those few movies that no matter how many times I've seen it, if I stumble across it at 2am on cable, I stop to just watch a scene or two and inevitably can't turn it off because it's so incredibly good. It's an absolute masterpiece, and the star is not the shark, but the incredible chemistry of the cast and the performances of Roy Scheider (Chief Brody), Richard Dreyfuss (Hooper), and Robert Shaw (Quint). The storytelling by Steven Spielberg is also...flawless!

    Yo, BJ, just to let you know, the song Spanish Ladies is a real song, and that's the song, that's the first line he was singing. It's actually about two men who have lovers in Spain saying goodbye to their lovers, and they say they will see them again, but they have to go back to England. And it's actually basically saying, we won't fall to the storm or shark. At least that's what Spielberg would have implied by the sailor singing that song.

    Thank you for reviewing/ reacting to this! I worked at a hospital in the Chicago area. I had the pleasure of meeting two of the USS INDIANAPOLIS Survivors ("Quints ship") and becoming their friends. Over the years, I went VFW's and American Legion's where they would speak with some other survivors from the mid-west. Besides, serving on the same ship together they all seem to have many of same triggers for PTSD.
    One was they could not sleep on water beds It would put them right back into the ocean In their minds and bring about horrific dreams. and if would smell like a oil water mixture. Both of the survivors that I knew have since passed on. I believe that only one survivor remains as of today. The crazy thing many of those men suffered from dementia and Alzheimer's, But those memories are forever burnt in the minds.
    One story I heard from one of the survivors was, He tried not to talk about the tragedy did not want it brought up. I guess one day he was having a tough time at work came home and wanted a warm bath. He dozed off int the tub and awakened to his skin pruning from being in the water too long . He saw his hands and lost it and it caused hallucinations. All this because back in 1945 when they were rescued, their skin was so wrinkled and pruned and being in salt water ,when pulled into rescue boat their skin would tear. The two survivors that I knew passed away in 2009 not far apart as I remember.

      There were 2 other torpedoed ships that may have been just as bad as the Indianapolis. They were rescued soon after the ship was hit and many of the men that died were from shark attacks. The 2 ships were the SS Cape San Juan and the RMS Nova Scotia.
      The species of shark that has dined on more human flesh than any other is the Oceanic White Tip.

      Not much was said about this on that side of family and I was not born when that happened. If you ever saw the old movie The Fighting Sullivan's, the ending was a little different than they showed according to survivors on the Sullivan Brother's ship the USS Juneau.

    My 2.5 years older brother was always a big scaredy cat, but he outdid himself with "Jaws." When we went to see it at a drive-in (he would have been about 11, so NOT a particularly young child), he spent half the movie under the dashboard lol. We lived in West L.A. and I don't think he ever went back to the beach, let alone in the water. He'd get freaked out if somebody started doing the "Jaws" music in our backyard pool 😆. And I (his little sister) have never let him live it down 😄.
    EDIT: After all of the teasing (not just from me - mostly his friends), I do remember that he was trying to get over it... then "Jaws 2" came out with the tagline: "Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water." He was DONE with the ocean forever lol.

    The three mechanical sharks built for this movie were constantly malfunctioning, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Steven Spielberg could not rely on a mechanical shark so he filmed it sparingly which ended up making the beast far more ominous. This movie was the first summer blockbuster. Prior to JAWS, summer was always a slow movie season, but that was changed forever when JAWS became the highest grossing movie in history. A title it held for two years until Star Wars was released in 1977. Ultimately, it's just a well made movie in every respect. Even the brilliant soundtrack by John Williams is its own character. Great reaction Asia and BJ!

    My Jaws story, family went down to visit my Grandfather in Galveston, TX when I was 4. We had never been to an indoor theater (1975), so he took us to see...you guessed it, Jaws. First time I saw the shark, I buried my head in my Mom's shoulder and never looked up, terrified me. So wouldn't you know, we go to the beach the next day, I'm telling Mom my brothers are out too far out and will get eaten by the shark. She says that's just a movie, then we come across a dead baby shark washed up on the beach...movie huh? My brothers are holding it, taking pictures posing with it, try to get me to do it...yeah wasn't happening. So I'm both terrified and fascinated with sharks from then on. When I was in the military at 25, 7 of of us went down to Mexico to party and hang out at the beach for a few days. I decided I was going to conquer my fear. Went out in the water, neck deep, and stood there for about 5 minutes, couldn't see in the water well, but I did it, was very proud that I faced it. Next morning we're having breakfast at a beachside place and we're on the second story, look out into the ocean...2 sand sharks right where I was the day before. Yeah...done with the ocean.

The close ups were shot in a swimming pool, milk was added to cloud the water so it looked like the ocean. BTW, an on-set gag was naming the shark Bruce after Spielberg's lawyer.

    One of the two little boys with the fake shark fin is now Sheriff of Police Chief of the area that was used for Amity Island.
    Alex Kintner was the little boy that was eaten. Several decades after the film's release, Lee Fierro walked into a seafood restaurant and noticed an "Alex Kintner Sandwich" on the menu. She commented that she had played his mother many years ago. Jeffrey Voorhees, manager of the restaurant, ran out to meet her. He had played her son, and they hadn't seen each other since the original movie shoot.

      I love this story. I heard they stayed in touch until she passed away a few years ago. Jeffrey owns a restaurant, The Wharf Pub in Edgartown MA. I don't think that's where they reconnected.

    I went cage diving with white sharks in Australia. They were massive and the bone chilling feeling of on breaching right next to the boat and not one
    person saw it until it was already flipped over and diving back into the water…. I’ll not only remember forever, but gave an even bigger appreciation for their capability and understanding that i NEVER want to be on the business end of that animal. On the other hand, I also want zero to do with seeing an Orca in the wild out side of a diving cage either 😂😅
    The biggest one out of the 6 sharks we saw that day, the biggest was 16ft long and it was so big I couldn’t see it all in my sights, i had to pan back and forth to take it all in and the picture i have of me and the shark swimming by, only captured my cheek and ear and side of mask and from the nose to the last gill and part of the side fin. So BJ, you’re correct, orcas in size do not compare to the great white as Orcas are WAY bigger than a great white shark. Like 1.4 times longer and weigh about 13,000lbs vs the white shark at 5,000lbs.
    The largest great white tagged was 20 feet vs the orca at 32 feet long.

    We went to Hawaii when I was a kid and rented a friend's house. They had a copy of Jaws there. 10 year old me thought that was a good beach read book. I read the opening scene (same as the movie), and went for a swim. I put my foot down to see if I could still touch the bottom. I stepped on a jellyfish. You never saw anyone swim back to shore, so fast. I didn't finish reading the book.

    I remember there was a JAWS game that came out after the movie proved that be such a box office hit. It was a plastic shark, and players had long plastic hooks and the object was to take turns removing from the open sharks mouth little plastic objects the shark had 'eaten' and as the weight of those items decreases the month, held open by them, begins to close ( it's set with a spring). The person who wins is the person who got the most objects out without the jaws of the shark snapping shut on your hook. It gets tense and fun as the game goes on. I haven't seen it in decades but I remember playing it and always being the schmuck JAWS bit! 😂

    Funny thing, when Asia said "Out there in the ocean," I couldn't help but think of Ralphie Mae's "Cuba Divin'" bit. This is one of my favorite reactions from you two. Watching you both jump at the same time reminded me of how fun it was to watch this for my first time in the 70s. 😲😂

    They actually filmed Jaws on an actual ocean not just some studio tanks and thats a big reason why this film looks so good.
