"Generic" No it's not a good movie, but it's a hell of a lot funnier than those drama riddled shark movies. Jason Statham swimming towards a meg actually pulling a "just keep swimming, just keep swimming" had me fucking rolling and you cant tell me that wasn't fucking ridiculous and brought on by Finding Nemo, bro. Honestly, if they stuck to humor more it would have been a much better movie. Or I guess, following a book.

I was listening to a couple guys do an audio commentary for Jaws, and the topic came up of a remake. One of the guys actually had what I thought was a pretty good idea, and that was to do a sort of loose prequel based on the 1916 shark attacks that happened in New Jersey. It was the inspiration for Peter Benchley to write the book, and was also mentioned in the film itself. What was really cool about his idea was the ending for the movie he came up with. Basically, the camera would zoom out over the water, travel what's supposed to be a great distance and many years into the future. Eventually the camera would pan up from the water and onto an island. Amity Island 1975. From a distance you see a young woman running towards the water taking her clothes off as she goes. At this point some of Chrissie's dialogue from the opening of Jaws is spliced in. Just as she's about to enter the water, a shark's fin pops out of the water, and those two famous notes from John Williams score play. Fade to black and the movie ends where the original Jaws began. What's great about that idea is it's not a sequel. or a remake. As I said, it would be sort of a loose prequel, but even there the only real thing tying the two films together would be that ending. The movie could very much stand on it's own and not step on the toes of the original film in any way, but it could still make that little connection right at the end.
@wd29183 жыл бұрын
Completely agree with that. The jaws story itself in my view should not be touched but some form of prequel along the lines of the New Jersey attacks in 1916 or the USS Indianapolis with a young quint would work, however, certain things would have to be taken into account to make those storylines work and make them be really good films. Ideally you would want to keep the same formula of not showing much of the shark and building the suspense like in the original jaws film which was the main source for the horror. Unfortunately with the suicidal script writing for big films these days in Hollywood and the insistence on using cgi over great visual effects and props I can’t see it happening
@MrDannyboyhall Жыл бұрын
That could be a good idea the problem I see is as usual the studio would go overboard with cgi that looks incredibly fake they would need to make it like jaws where you don’t really see a whole lot of the shark for most of the movie that’s what made the original so good was the suspense

My dad’s written a terrific, original action movie, planned out the logistics, the stunts, the model/miniature effects (NO CGI Shots unless ABSOLUTELY necessary) but Hollywood shot him down when he approached agencies trying to attach a top director (Sam ‘Skyfall’ Mendes) and bankable talent. They’re losing a fuckload of money due to their ignorance of what the public want. He’s talking about starting a new British studio like Warner’s or Universal and release it that way, using the billions it will generate to self-finance the next few films he produces, using the same production talent hiring formula...top director and proven crew who can get it made for him. By competing directly with Hollywood using AMERICAN style filmmaking and established star actors, the films he is preparing will shock everyone when they are released. Using strong, solid character development and character identification, and stories of cathartic resonance, audiences will be lining around the block. People can laugh at this all they like, take the piss till they’re blue in the face, but I’ve SEEN what he’s planning and while Hollywood dies on its arse with sex/pedophilia scandals and over-reliance on shitty product, he WILL have the last laugh.

The characters are so disposable and uninteresting to the point where they don’t even add to the plot so that when a character dies it doesn’t have the desired effect, unlike Jaws where the dialog feels so natural and not forced. It FEELS real and flows perfectly. It’s like the characters actually lived through the stories they tell and it draws the audience in like someone’s telling a scary story around a campfire. So many of todays films just miss that magic.

I definitely hope they don’t try to remake this. The only thing I could ever get behind would be the same film, re-released, with some SLIGHT and very careful CGI touch-ups to the worst of the animatronic shark shots. NO other adjusting, same shots, no additions, no removals. ...and I could be wrong but I think Brody neglected to join the “scars” conversation because he was embarrassed that his only war wound was an appendectomy scar. I always thought it was a little moment of comedic levity.

I don't think that would take much doing. It's on tv quite regularly and I usually end up watching it, and I can honestly count about 3 or 4 shots where it looks fake, and that's probably only because I'm looking out for it to see if it still looks realistic. Even so, it still looks better than some of the shitty CGI you see in other films

What Jaws needs is a direct sequel that heavily retcons/ignores the sequels, kind of like the H40 trilogy from the Halloween franchise. Probably mainly focus on new characters, but maybe also bring in Hooper and show how he’s changed since the original incident. I also think Jaws is so good because of how realistic its story is. Also, when Jaws 2 was in production, one of Spielberg’s ideas WAS the Quint-focused Indianapolis prequel, but Universal at the time said no.

Here's how it could work: - Not a remake of the Spielberg movie, but a more faithfull adaptation of the book - Recreation of the opening scene from the moment, the girl goes into the water. Then, after a couple of shots, insert an overhead shot of the sharks frame nearby the girl, then continue the recreation until the moment the POV comes to her legs. Now, the shark's coming from the background and eats her foot and we realize, that there was no POV of the shark at all (and never will be so that the attacks come out of silence and nowhere). Then, the girl gets eaten as described as in the book. This opening scene will do several things: 1. It will disturb the fans of the original who where eased or annoyed by the recreation at the beginning but then terrified when it changes. 2. The brutality of the attack (now shown with a convincing - at least The Shallows-level- CGI-shark) will terrify them too, because getting eaten by something is a primal fear deep within us. - No score or shark theme at all. Only ambient sounds and songs from radios etc. - A period piece still set in the 70's, so that modern technology or knowledge of sharks isn't applyable. (The shark in the novel acts and reacts more believable than in the movie) - Make the shark scared and battleworn, so that the explanation for him staying is about his failing ability to hunt down agile and aware sealife, but he can easy prey on humans. Instead of lecturing about megalodons as he does in the novel, Hooper could give that explanation. - Instead of the Indianapolis speech (which isn't in the novel), Brody could attempt to bring an M-16 on board, which Quint forbids. He could give Brody a quick speech, that he's killing sharks for decades "... with irons, hooks. With my goddamn hands." This would silence younger viewers who would argue, why they don't just shoot the shark. - Focus on the town. This is not a movie about a shark eating people but a town on the brink of bankrupcy because of something they cannot control. - Let the characters be as unsympathetic as they are in the novel - it will make for great acting scenes with drama and tension (if people are willing to spend years with psychotic mobsters, dying meth cooks and soziopathic serial killer killing serial killers, they will be on board for 4 hours for a new adaptation of Jaws). - Make it a 4 hour-twoparter on Netflix. This will fix almost any initial problems, if they ever announce it. The box office won't matter, you don't need to outdo iconic posters or trailers. And because people won't feel that they have to pay for it (because once Netflix becomes a fixed payment every month like electricity or the phone bill, people look at Netflix stuff as it was "for free") they will watch it eventually.
