"Why didn't the dog fetch the stick, Abby?" Toy is so fun. I love her cute anticipatory glances at Abby when she knows 'something bad's about to happen'. This is now my favorite reaction of Abby's. "He has Quint in his teeth." LOL.

"Why aren't you in the water?".... Asks the Politician that's wearing a suit to the beach.

Toy: "I think he has one of the coolest names." Me: "Yeah Baby, you know it, back at you..." Toy: "Chief Brody." Me: "Aw, hell!" Great show! ❤

Abby is a national treasure with her reactions 😂😂

We accidently stumbled upon the filming of this movie while on a day trip the the vineyard. We saw Quinnt's shack and part of the shark and a few extras. It was pretty cool but had no idea we were watching a classic being born! 😄

The other blockbusters of this era were Star Wars and Close Encounters. I strongly recommend Close Encounters if you haven't seen it already. The actor who played Quint was Robert Shaw, who was a legend at the time but at the tail end of his career. He really brought a lot of legitimacy to the film IMO. If you want to see another great movie he was in, check out The Sting. BTW sharks have to keep swimming or else they drown, and this includes when they sleep. They don't have those tiny fins by their gills that waft in water so they breathe by constantly moving. The barrels tire out sharks and eventually drown them.

No seals were harmed in the making of this movie, although a dolphin was very slightly alarmed. Fun reaction. I give it my full seal of approval.

Some of the shark scenes used a real shark, like the cage scene. The story about the USS Indianapolis is true, my father was in the Navy during WWII and told me about a lot of events that happened during that time. I remember watching this in the theater when it came out, I wouldn't even go swimming in a small lake after it came out 🤣. Anyway, loved the review, love you guys, take care and stay safe ❤️

Facts my friend

This movie is amazing still in 2024,thanks for review girls

Steven Spielberg was 27, if I remember correctly, and relatively new to the movie making business at time in the early to mid 1970s when Jaws was originally made for and released in theaters. He had mad a movie called “The Sugarland Express” and another a film called “Duel”. He may have a few others but those were among his best well known movies before Jaws came out. “Close Encounters Of The Third Kind” is another movie he had out around the same time as Jaws, Duel, and SugarLand Express. Jaws ultimately launched Steven Spielberg’s career as top movie Director taking from a relatively unknown director to being among the most famous if not one most famous in the movie making industry. Jaws was shot on location in Martha’s Vinyard, Massachusetts with most every water scene, except for the scene with Ben Gardener’s damaged and drifting boat and the cage scene, were shot on the open ocean of the coast of Martha’s Vinyard. Shooting in the open ocean is why the Shark routinely would malfunction thus the reason for very few but memorable scenes when you do see the shark. Many have said not seeing the shark and letting your mind run wild with images of what was happening under the water made the film more scary then it would have been if the shark had been seen often. The novel from which the movie is based on depicted the shark as being seen often. Jaws is wildly regarded as the original Summer Blockbuster and at the time of its original release was the top money grossing or making movie. Jaws is regarded as as being masterpiece due its great characters, suspenseful story telling and overall less is more approach, meaning the less you see the shark combined with how you learn about the characters and watch their character build, helps to make the characters and suspense that much more entertaining and or enjoyable.

i think Speilberg did a movie called 1941 with John Candy, John Belushi (ANimal House), Count Dooku, and Dan Ankroyd (Ghostbusters)

Toy's stock went up at least 10 points with her savagery. "Just give me a warning on the dog. "Absolutely not." Brutal and awesome 😂

"Jaws" (1975) is considered to be the first modern blockbuster summer movie. Then came Star Wars (1977) , Alien (1979), Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), Ghostbusters and Beverly Hills Cop (1984), Batman (1989), Jurassic Park (1993), etc.

The reason why the interpretation fails is that the dog was small enough to be easily swallowed whole. Also, if the dog did leave the water, why didn't he return to his owner like most dogs would? His owner was looking for him before the death of the boy because he had been eaten which I believe is how the scene is to be interpreted by the floating stick.

Watching Toy toy with Abby's anxiety was hilarious to witness 😁

I think Abby was about to ask how the shot where Chief Brody appears to be moving towards the camera as the Kitner boy is attacked. It's called a dolly zoom shot. Using a zoom lens, they dolly the entire camera in (or out) while zooming the lens in (or out). It's a great in camera effect. It's also called a Hitchcock shot.

@1001Hobbies

Күн бұрын

In this shot, the lens is zooming out while the dolly is pushing in. You can tell because the ground behind body gets further away, and this can only happen when the focal length is getting shorter (i.e. going from 100mm to 24mm). I would like to know how many times they had to do this in order to get the speed of the zoom out and the grips to get the speed of the push in just right. You also have to be willing to burn the production time to get this shot, which if they didn't do the dolly zoom would be so much easier and quicker to get in the can. I am so glad Spielberg decided to do this because as we see, decades later people are still blown away by it. This was also a risky move since this was his first big budget, major motion picture he Directed. When he Directed "Duel" before this, it was a made for television movie.

We need a bigger boat !!

"Close Encounters" was Spielberg's next big blockbuster in '77. Same summer Star Wars came out. Jaws made him world famous, but he did a great TV movie called "Duel" before that. You could see he had a great talent for making suspenseful movies, even then.

Love Toy's constant grinning as she awaits Abby's next freak-out. Jaws was Spielberg's 2nd Theatrical Studio film as Director after doing amateur films, TV shows and TV films. He was 27 years old when filming Jaws in the summer/autumn of 74.

The story goes that many decades after the movie's release the actress who played Mrs. Kitner (Lee Fierro) went into a seafood restaurant and saw an item on the menu called the 'Alex Kitner Sandwich'. She made a remark that she had played the mother of Alex in the movie Jaws, and Jeffrey Voorhees, the owner of the restaurant, who played Alex ran out to meet her as they hadn't seen each other since the movie. When you see the Chief tossing the blood and fish remnants in the water it's called 'chumming the water' to attract sharks.

"This was no boating accident!"

When Estevez brought the line: "This was no boating accident!", Dreyfuss responded: "... No idea!" To which Estevez reacted with "Hopeless. You're just hopeless." This then landed as a scene in the movie "Stakeout".

A fellow sonar tech was closer to the mooring line but he saw the water come off of it -- they train us to look for that, it means the rope will tighten and then break -- so he instinctively got even further away than six feet, and then he saw it break. He was ok afterward, he put plenty of distance between himself and the mooring line. 😲

No movie came close to this film in 1975. Jaws was the first ever "summer blockbuster". I think it made $100 million back IN 1975! (roughly $500,000,000 today). That was an INSANE amount of money. Hence it's title as the first "summer blockbuster" 🙂

The Next Block Buster was Star Wars, Then came Close Encounters of the Third Kind, then Alien, then Raiders of the Lost Ark and Empire Strikes Back. Then E.T., then Return of then Jedi, Then Back to the Future, then Terminator, then Aliens....... Then Leathal Weapon, Then Die Hard,........ It was relentless. Imagine growing up with this.... It was brilliant!

Awesome reaction. Thank you, thank you.

I would say that for technical ability, "Jaws," "Star Wars," and "Alien" are the top 70s movies. "Jaws" is often thought of as the first summer blockbuster, but possibly "The Exorcist" was the first blockbuster movie for the Christmas market (ironically enough). People were lined up around the block to see it, and it was quite the phenomenon, referenced a fair bit. Classics from the 70s that didn't really have FX were "The Godfather," "Rocky," "Apocalypse Now," "Taxi Driver," "Chinatown," and more. If you have seen "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," watch "The Sting." If you like Spielberg, watch "Close Encounters of the Third Kind." If you like Stephen King, watch "Carrie." "Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory" and "Blazing Saddles" are classics from the 70s.

The Zoom Dolly is the shot when Chief Brody reacts to the Alex Kintner attack. Still the best film of all time in my opinion. Stands up still, after 50 years.🦈🦈

The original summer blockbuster, No. 1 film of all time for 2 years (till Star Wars), one of the greatest thrillers ever made and the film industry's welcome to Spielberg as the next new storyteller. Peter Benchley, the author of the Best-selling novel co-wrote the screenplay. The build up of the characters in this town, dealings with the threat at hand and the eventual confrontation with the beast is perfect in every way. Roy Scheider (Brody), Robert Shaw (Quint), Richard Dreyfus (Hooper) in the whole 3rd act of the film are all amazing and it's such good chem. The story of the shark is a whole lot of drama in how it works and didn't work through most of the shoot. But nonetheless, that's a good story. John Williams............ We already know know how great his music is. The theme is as unforgettable as it is relentless. Most after seeing this masterpiece ask the question of "How do you make 3 sequels to this classic?" All of them are different from each other and nowhere near as good as the original. You could watch the other ones. But then again, you don't have to.

Steven Spielberg followed this up with Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Raiders of the Lost Ark, E.T. The Extraterrestrial, The Temple of Doom and The Last Crusade.

Great reaction to a great movie. This is the movie that made people afraid to go in the water. I wouldn't be too worried about them, though. About 100 people per year are killed by sharks worldwide, but about 100 million sharks are killed each year by humans, so I think sharks have more to fear from us than we do from them. The mechanical sharks they used for filming (nicknamed Bruce, after Spielberg's lawyer) kept malfunctioning in the water. That's why you don't really see them for the first half of the movie, cementing Spielberg's reputation as a master of suspense. The shark that "ate" Quint had jaws and teeth made of foam rubber, to not hurt the actor. The famous line, "You're going to need a bigger boat", was ad-libbed. Early in his career, Spielberg was known for encouraging his actors to improvise. Richard Dreyfuss (Hooper) was recommended to Spielberg by Spielberg's friend George Lucas who had worked with him on American Graffiti. He initially turned down the role but eventually agreed to do it. He later had nothing but praise for Spielberg, who was still relatively unknown at the time. Another great Spielberg movie with Dreyfuss is Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977). If you liked Robert Shaw (Quint), he's in The Sting (1973), with Robert Redford and Paul Newman.

The scene where the chief and his son were making faces at each other wasn't scripted. between takes the kid and the chief just started making faces and Spielberg rolled the camera on it.

Saw many times at the theater, all time classic,thanks y’all

70s movies. The Poseidon Adventure, The Towering Inferno, The Andromeda Strain, Patton, MASH, forget the JAWS sequels.
