The cranking of the phone sends a sound to the other end since it doesn’t use power (Ringing). I was in the Navy (Ship) and that’s one of the ways we had to communicate with the lookouts. Just found your channel, great channel all around!

[@beastlygaming6966]

You guys should really watch Shark Hunter, it's so under appreciated but I'd say the 3rd best shark film I've ever seen n I'm a shark nut who's seen a lot of em

[@beastlygaming6966]

It's a common type of shark movie but the approach to Shark Hunter was so well done

[@beastlygaming6966]

Also I seen you guys watch Tremors, the sequels are all really good 2 was best but you should watch them all, especially since the guy who played Earl died

[@naph-the-critic]

Perhaps the ORCA movie from the 70s another time?

[@SonicLamb]

Love how the shark looked at and recognized Susan, before killing her. It's like it was letting her know that what she did was messed up.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Yeeesss!! It was like she was telling Susan that this was personal - and therefore inevitable. So wonderfully creepy!

the creation getting Revenge on the creator.

[@NoahF57]

This is one of my fav movies of all time and I saw it in the theaters. I’ve NEVER interpreted that scene in that way! This is the first time I’ve heard that thought. I never thought the shark was recognizing her. I thought the shark was so smart that it was realizing that if it went for her it would get speared, so it waited just that one moment and when he dropped the spear and lept into the water the shark knew it was then safe to attack. Plus when he jumped in, the shark new it was 2 for the price of one.

[@NoahF57]

Basically to add on, she was using herself as bait. But then shark in turn used her as bait. Had it immediately killed her, the shark would have been in range for the spear, and 2 there would have been no reason for the guy to drop the spear. I think the shark was baiting him.

[@NoahF57]

Notice how once the guy jumps into the water is when the shark immediately attacks.

[@shainewhite2781]

The scene with Samuel L. Jackson is now an Internet meme! Author Stephen King, whom ended up in the hospital after he got hit by a car, watched the movie on VHS a friend of his gave to him and loved every minute of it. He named Deep Blue Sea one of the best movies ever made.

So one of the things some people miss about the sharks. In the beginning Carter mentions ‘it took two to slow her down’ and Scott responded ‘you missed’ He clearly didn’t miss we see that. When he brings the shark into the lab he only shoots it once, it was awake the entire time because it needed two.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Right!!! These sharks were so damn smart, and it makes it that much more eerie when you realize the shark waited for the right moment to strike...

[@priscilabee583]

The shark switching the oven on will never not be amazing!

[@Short_Round1999]

It’s actually fairly common for sharks to breach and they can actually get pretty high, there are lots of videos. Sharks are also one of the many animals on earth that are cannibalistic. Also, sharks can never swim backwards cuz it doesn’t give them the right water flow over their gills for oxygen, so them swimming backwards was alarming.

[@michaelccozens]

I think breaching in sharks is still pretty uncommon. We see videos of it because there's a particular population around South Africa that use it as part of a unique hunting strategy for a particular context, but other than that, it doesn't happen very often.

[@azazello1784]

Thank God... I am sick of the predictable boring happy endings.

[@mab2187]

Sam Jackson and Susans death were the most surprising, and it honestly works good for the narrative making it feel that nobody is safe and theres little plot armor.

[@DeepBlueSeaFan]

​@azazello1784 The monster meets its maker trope is the most predictable ending in cinema history though. I would've gladly taken the "predictable happy original ending" over the silly, cheap, uneventful cop out we got that opened up a plethora of plot holes and ruined the overall narrative. Not just her surviving, but the entire third act was altered due to her comically silly death - as was the overall story as she was supposed to be the main character and the filmmakers were forced to go back and axe so much content and dialogue that involved Susan to make you feel more impartial toward her and so she'd seem like less of a central figure when in reality, it just made her character bland and uninteresting while transforming the movie into a silly popcorn flick. It's like Batman vs Superman vs BVS Ultimate Edition. They sacrificed quality to appease a few gore hounds.

[@batistafury6668]

​@DeepBlueSeaFan oh bullshit. It was still a good movie, her death was satisfying

[@alicepbg2042]

@@DeepBlueSeaFan I'll believe that when I see the original cut and think it was better. if it ever gets released. as it stands, this is a good movie and she dieing is perfectly fine karma for what she created/unleashed and failed to properly care for. much like hammond in the jp book. only she actually tried to help in the end, while hammond remains the same. so she gets some redemption.

[@bouboulroz]

My favorite shark movie. The simple idea of making sharks smart just added a whole new dimension of "you're fucked" to the movie. I'm also a sucker for smart predators in movies, so that helped. Also, a black guy survived a 1999 movie ! Progress ! Although I chuckle that their way to solve the "kill the black guy" trope was to just add a second character of color.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

That’s exactly what we thought while watching! Making the sharks smart definitely elevated the stakes. It was such a thrill to watch! Also yes 😂 a black dude surviving at the end of a 90s horror is a rare thing to see but glad this movie tackles things differently. Also giving us a very iconic death scene to balance things out a bit

[@pickleboy6059]

What’s funny is Jackson asked to be killed by a shark if does the movie. And the cook never dies in any movie he’s in

[@sonofmoss]

Saffron Burrow’s character was supposed to live at the end, but test audiences were adamant that she die at the end since it was her genetic modifications that caused the sharks to become smarter and kill everybody.

Fun fact : when Carter said the shark was 45ft long, it's because a shot of the CGI shark in the final act was gigantic, the actual size was 25-26 ft( the same size as Bruce from Jaws) P.S: the species are Short fin Mako sharks, a cousin of the Great White.

23:46 It's called a Navy Crank Phone. It's a military invention from WW2, because in a water-rich environment, having a constantly powered phone could introduce a shock risk. So, when you need a connection, you spin a crank, which spins a magnet inside a coil of wire, creating electricity. The other half of the system is that the handset is sound-powered, so that the crank "calls" the phone of that you have selected on a separate dial, and then the phone itself converts sound waves into electricity to send along the wires. It's a pretty robust technology, so much so that it is even still used today on a lot of ships that spend a lot of time out on the water... think tankers, cargo ships, even military ships like the Nimitz-class aircraft carriers.

A Great White Shark can jump 8-10 feet out of the water, the record even records is of 15 feet. Just imagine the speed n force of impact combined with there bite force with those sharp teeth. They literal cut there prey in half, even light bite made just to tests if things are food or not taken body parts n must of the time kill the victim by blood lost. PS: Thresher Sharks, the ones with that long pointed tail can jump 20 feet, and the Shortfin Mako has recorded jumps of 30 feet off the water. Half fun at the Beach n boats on open Ocean.

I’ve come across a lot of reactors that talk so much that I sometimes wonder if they’re actually even paying attention. I also love how you two focus on the little details that most people (including myself) would overlook. Funny, when I first saw Deep Blue Sea years ago, I thought it was so cheesy lol. But after watching your reactions, I’ve realized it’s not as bad as I initially thought. I don’t know if you guys take suggestions but I feel like Contagion might be a good one to react to.

Thanks so much for taking the time to give us some of this info, we hella appreciate it!!

This is my favorite shark movie. It had a combo of horror, intensity and some comedy humor in it. No one expected Jackson to die. It`s LL Cool J`s second best acting role. His best role was the movie called In Too Deep, which had some brutal moments.

[@marjoleinvnoort6961]

“Back inside where it’s safe “ yeah right 😂😂😂

[@MoeRenai]

I was pretty glad that they killed the lead researcher in the end (huge thanks to the test audience feedback for getting us that ending). Although her intentions were good and she does have some character growth, it felt wrong for her to survive with a romantic interest when she had been acting selfishly for most of the film while the rest of the cast were dying. Her having the gall to use herself as bait (esp throwing her whole body into the water, away from the ladder) and to expect that she still had a chance of surviving honestly made her surprise death feel warranted. I was glad to see that the chef character survived, he really went through it

[@danielramsey6141]

Saw this movie in the Theater with my family! We all Loved it. It has characters with personality, LL Cool J and Samuel L Jackson were great Characters in this movie!

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Such poetry...such wow

[@CastOfCharacters13]

This is like the best shark movie ever made it has two marvel characters both Nick fury, and the punisher

[@J_Mar19]

One of my favorite movies of all time. I wish they had kept the original ending with Susan living and it would have been perfect honestly. Her character had a good arc in the film that sort of didn’t get to finish. They cut out some scenes that make her more likable as well, once they decided to change the end at the last minute. Still a great flick though. I’d love to see the original ending!

[@jrytacct]

Indeed, she was the true hero of the film. Everything was worth it for that cure.

[@DeepBlueSeaFan]

There's a movement growing to get the original ending released (via an online peti tion - check it out). Believe me when I tell you the entire third act is vastly superior and different to the theatrical cut.

[@phillytothej4001]

This caps off me rewatching all the shark movies you've reacted to (so far). And I think you two would LOVE the Jurassic Park/World franchise.

[@BigSplenda1885]

I love this movie so much, the best part is the two unexpected deaths that no one saw coming… that’s what makes it so memorable

[@elizabethwilson1540]

I watched this with my best friend. We had to keep pausing it to settle our nerves. afterwards we watched Alien 3 to relax. 😬

[@zetsuki4207]

I was 14, 15 years old when this came out, watched it at the movies probably three time, and i still love it. It scared the crap out of my younger brother though, who refused to take a bath in the tub for like a year after watching it. lol

[@melloyello8787]

I know that this is a 6mo old post but the fact that Denise predicted so many moments right before they happened was pure gold.

[@twelvehundredmiles5330]

So I don’t know if this is a fact or a joke, but people say that LL Cool J made history by playing the first black character to survive to the end of a horror/thriller film. 😂 Love this movie.

[@37204]

Ice cube was the first in anaconda lol

[@thomasgriffiths6758]

As a chef I personally love LL Cool J's character especially the parrot 🦜.

@09:32 - not a floppy disk! They were called Zip Drives, and could hold an unbelievable 100 megabytes of data, as compared to the 1.4 megs a floppy disk could hold, where meg does not refer to a shark ancient or otherwise. Movie note: Samuel Jackson agreed to do this movie only if his character got killed by the shark.

[@TheInfinityzeN]

I was about to comment that them calling a Zip Drive a floppy made me feel really old, since I had already owned my own PC for well over a decade before they even first appeared.

[@pauljones3006]

The licence plate is the same one used in jaws,when hooper cuts it out of the tiger shark.

[@rashadwalker8218]

I would put this behind jaws as top tier shark films .... loved this film

Absolutely agreed, it had all the thrills, the carnage and suspense!!

[@WyattBenton-hf8bj]

I don't think it tops jaws tho

[@chriscage669]

11:38 just to correct you guys It’s actually the test sharks killed the tiger shark, so it wasn’t one of their own.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Ah thanks for that!! Appreciate the clarification!

[@iapetusmccool]

It's confusing, because apparently the film crew built really accurate models of mako sharks - and then painted stripes on one to use as a tiger shark (despite mako and tigers looking very different in real life).

[@chriscage669]

@@iapetusmccool yeah that’s one of the mistakes I’ve realized in the movie My guess is that since they were building these animatronics for 8 months they were in the middle of work to create a tiger shark but instead of wasting another few months they decided to paint one the animatronics with stripes to look like a tiger shark. Another difference we can tell are the CGI versions the Makos are a bit larger than the tiger shark

[@Darkangel-A-c8z]

With all these films it's like the saying "whatever you send out, you get back threefolds"

[@wolfmanjeff69]

The part where that guy pulls the license plate out of the sharks mouth....was the same license plate that they used in Jaws when they pulled the license plate out of the sharks tummy. The exact same license plate. 🦈

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Yeah! That’s pretty freakin’ awesome! I actually double checked the license plate while editing and yup! Same exact number 007 0 981

[@blueeyedcowboy8291]

This was such a fun movie to watch in the theater. SLJ dying the way he did and LL's character made this movie. If you want an amazing ocean movie, check out "The Abyss". Not a shark movie but I think you both would love it.

[@steveperry4182]

Glad to see LL Cool j I didn't die in this movie famous rapper from the 80s and 90s

[@ms.m666]

I like the fact Samuel L. Jackson wanted to get eaten by a shark lol he wanted to get killed because that wouldn't be expected. I think makers didn't agree on it first...glad they did! I'd always get scared on that scene even i had this movie on DVD and knew it🙈. Liked hpw they were not typically Great White but Mako Sharks. And i always wondered how did they do the CGI on that 🦈 that Carter brought up? Later read it was a robotic shark 🦈(like JAWS). don't mind me i was born the same year this movie was released 😅

[@perki1573]

I miss the days of Summer blockbusters! This is perfect fun 😊

me and my siblings rented this on VHS gotta be around 2000, my little brother had such a crush on Saffron Burroughs' character that he ran out of the room crying at the end when she got got.

Samuel Jackson death is one of the funniest deaths I've ever seen at the theatre...me & my brother gasped & laughed it up....Good times👍

How did you manage to laugh?

[@alexomar9699]

everyone in my theater shouted out WTF? and then we died laughing

[@hakuna..matata]

How is that funny? 🤷🤦 People finding serious death scenes funny are so weird (not in a good way), it's actually kinda sick in my opinion.

[@matsaidso]

This was def a fun movie first time watching, and I’m glad it was with y’all! If you want another classic 90’s - 2000’s movie maybe Clueless Pulp Fiction Bring it on Mean Girls A Walk To Remember (It’s 2014 but) the perks of being a wall flower Legally Blonde The Matrix JURRASIC Park Lord Of The Rings Scary Movie - (all of them) Scream (Although I don’t follow on with the franchise I’ve heard the sequels are pretty good!)

one of the few good movies about sharks made in recent decades. and as for the bad ones, we saw sharks not only on land, or in a tornado, but even on the moon!!

The actor who played CARTER, WAS the 1st PUNISHER. ALSO staring John Travolta.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Oh hell yes, we gotta check that one out too!

[@marlonclark1896]

actually, he was the 2nd punisher the first punisher was Dolph Lundgren from the 1989 punisher film.
