@corduroybridge: while filming jaws in 1974, the production relied on a full sized mechanical shark nicknamed “bruce.” the shark repeatedly malfunctioned in the ocean, forcing director steven spielberg to abandon many planned shots. instead of showing the shark directly, he built suspense through music, camera angles, and reactions from the actors. the limitation unexpectedly became one of the film’s greatest strengths, helping turn jaws into the first summer blockbuster and one of the most influential thrillers ever made #fypシ゚viral #History #jaws #spielberg #moviefacts

Even though it may have stayed broke down a lot, the mechanical shark is way better than CGI and Jaws is and will always be one of the best shark movies ever

They probably built it without ever testing it in salt water or the ocean

People who complain about cgi and a lack of practical effects, also dont understand how practical effects work

This is why the first Jurassic Park movie beats the rest, and they get progressively worse as the CGI allows for more spectacular dinosaurs scenes.

When I was a kid my friends brother told me they left him underwater under the bridge in Martha’s Vineyard where they filmed. And umm… I was today years old when I finally googled and found out I’ve been scared to jump off that bridge for no reason. He’s not there. They took him out.
