Its mad seeing the shark out the water and how unreal it looks. Shows the absolute genius of Spielberg in how he shot the film,the score and great acting from a few to pull it off.

There was supposed to be a whole load more shark footage, but the animatronic shark kept playing up. Hence the shark POV shots for most of the attacks. Created the suspense and made the film a hit. All down to chance.

If you watch it in HD the shark looks awful

 

Still a brilliant movie though

Probably not helped by the fact that real sharks look fake.

I think I saw something debunking that one.  It's almost what it says; it's an ice-hockey goalie with make-up applied to recreate all the facial injuries he had received in his career, as if they were all still fresh.

 

Still a proper mess, like.

 

I've shagged worse.

I always think it's unfair that these sort of people are often called as geeks and weirdo's....Not sure why that actually started?

They also used footage by Val and Ron Taylor of actual Great White Shark footage for underwater shots. Again the lack of the phoney shark helped the film greatly.

I love Jaws but the moment the shark jumps out of the water the effect is ruined anyway as it looks awful. Fine for it's time but that scene has not aged well. You can see why Spielberg went with the power of suggestion for the most part, way more scary.

 

I'm pretty sure that they stuck a midget in a cage (or a doll or something) to make the actual shark look a lot bigger, also the scene in the chamber in Alien with the space jockey, the astronauts were kids too, for scale purposes.

Jaws is still the best shark movie of all time. It's in my top 5 films of all time too.
