Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I've already seen it in theaters and it was a genuine film print from back in the day, not a remastered digital version. I remember there was a bunch of print damage, mono audio track differences and even parts that were missing at the reel changes. It was great.

Sorry, dude: that dog don't hunt.ET is better than Jaws. Star Wars, Superman, and Titanic rival Jaws for my love of the film.KM,the Jaws blu is wonderful. Unlike today's films it's not afraid of color. There is none of that hideous blue orange modern tinting.If it wasn't for the vehicles and the smoking in the hospital scene it could be brand new.It sounds great.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I saw it in secret. Sneaked down stairs when my parents were watching it on video.I'm sure I didnt really understand it, but two scenes stayed with me. The one with the fishing line, where Quint tries to hook the shark, and the one where Bruce smashed through the cabin of the sinking Orca. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 No one is too young for Jaws. Although I saw Jaws 2 before Jaws 1, I saw them when I was 4.It was the beginning of my love for sharks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,352 Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 I have no idea when I first saw Jaws and have still never seen any of the sequels.It wasn't until somewhere around college (probably when the 25th anniversary DVD came out) that I saw it "for real" - any viewings from before that I have no concrete memories of.Man, its a well-made movie.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Its brilliant!Of the other ones I can only recommend Jaws 2, which is a decent sequel in its own right.Jaws 3D is rainy Sunday evening viewing at best and The Revenge is awful.

Jay 37,352 Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 I'll see Jaws 2 some day for sure - I eventually want to see every John Williams-scored movie there is. As for the other Jaws movies, eh...... maybe some day, who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
