Every time Jim appears on the channel from now on he's going to be introduced as "The guy who ranked The Reef higher than Jaws"

[@jcliffyhuff]

Ha Ha!! Epic Filmmaking.

[@movietimelines]

forget the channel, i'm just gonna start introducing him to EVERYONE that way.

[@RobbDorn]

Welp, now I have to go watch the cinematic masterpiece “The Reef” that I somehow missed during its impressive theatrical run.

[@alchemypotato]

There certainly are some pretty underwater shots and uh that's the most I can remember about it.

[@dalarpguy]

Happy Birthday! Also, Stand-off is also called Gladiator Hands, and I never played it drinking, but when I was a camp councilor we played it with the campers all the time. We also played it in elementary school sometimes when it was raining outside and the gym teacher didn't want to clean up after dodgeball.

[@movietimelines]

this is good info. how do you play it? how do you win? do you really just hit someone's hands until they go off balance?

RE: Shark motivation, The Shallows: the shark was shown to have a rusty hook in its mouth, implying that it might have a tetanus infection, which might have made the shark act crazy, not eating for sustenance, but killing out of blind rage. I have no idea if tetanus does that to animals, but an infection could explain its behavior.

[@virochanaasura8521]

The Nostalgia Critic demonstrated that the shark roar of Jaw 4 is actually Jerry from the cartoon Tom & Jerry.

I hope you had a fun Birthday Josh. I few of these I probably would have switched around but it was a good ranking all the same. Also. Ranking Reef above Jaws is one hell of a birthday present. Just something to get one a little emotional, that is what a present is suppose to do, eh? Just real special. (:

[@techieplays2605]

In defense of The Meg, I agree that it was sort of not able to find itself a niche but if they just took the novelization of The Trench by Steve Alten then it'd be a lot less action and not as fun for casual audiences. The novel had more exposition and character development than the movie but with that being said that doesn't make for a good movie in some cases like 2014's Legendary Godzilla, it focused too much on the human characters that were not that memorable the only ones I remembered were Bryan Cranston's character of Joe Brody and Ken Watanabe's portrayal of Dr. Serizawa and they weren't even the main character which was I had to look this up believe it or not Aaron Taylor-Johnson's character of Lieutenant Ford. 2014 focused on characters more than the actual star of the movie Godzilla; much like how The Meg didn't focus on what it truly was which was a sci-fy thriller because if it focused more on that beach scene like Jeremy said then the movie may have been a bit more enjoyable to the more inclined audience like yourselves. I enjoyed it for what it was a giant shark movie with comedic twists, yes I will agree that The Meg isn't the best shark movie but I feel it deserves a lot less scrutiny than what it got. Sorry for ranting just wanted to say something, if Josh reads this even after 2 months hi new to your side of youtube and think that your content is really good and honestly if I weren't so shy and more inclined to do social things then I'd love to show up if you wanted to do a ranking of something, just say something if you want I just wanted to say my piece on the meg.

[@mspsychgirl]

The Meg was a let down because I loved the book. But I think I enjoyed it more because of the book too

[@Haplo699g]

I loved the book and had followed the progress of the movie since it had been at Disney. It didn't have the Nautilus, the Surfer or the gore but it didn't make me angry which was surprising! LOL

[@raythackston1960]

The reason the shark was killing people (which was hinted to in the movie) was the dead whale, The shark is protecting his food source. That does happen in the wild.

[@rosalindmatteson3697]

I watched a video that sorta redeemed Jaws: The Revenge. It had the hypothesis that the shark in the movie is supernatural in origin. That is why it only goes after the Brody family.

[@domomitsune5920]

Happy bday. I always did like the Jaws series. It had a simple plot to follow and the villain of the movie was easy to identify. Unlike other movies, the villain in this series doesn't go off in a tangerine and monologue, explaining his complex plan or be predictable. The movie is basically man versus nature. The movie, even tells you this isn't the first time the shark or sharks have attacked oh, so it's hard to tell if the previous attacks were by the same shark or not. I think this makes this movie A Timeless classic, worth multiple re-watches.

[@totaldramafangaming118]

[@MaddSlasher]

They do give a reason for the shark staying in the area. One that actually makes sense. The dead whale. Sharks are known to stick by whale carcasses until they're eaten or sink to the bottom. Now I do have a harder time believing it would rather eat skinny ass surfers than a blubber rich whale.

[@ajbonine69]

I forgive The Shallows its Hollywood action finale. So many studio productions are film by committee and lose a greater resonance they otherwise would have had were the vision not compromised in a misguided attempt to raise appeal. If The Shallows had to have that clever-seeming but stupid if you think about it ending for the rest of the film to be what it is, well, it could have been worse. I also think that unneeded narration is there because one person in a screening didn't understand something.

Happy belated birthday Josh! Like yourself, I was quite miffed as to where a lot of these landed on the list - I felt Jaws 3D and The Reef should have been higher, The Meg and The Shallows should have bee lower...but what the hell, Jaws easily claimed it's rightful spot and thank goodness for that. None of the other movies on this list are even close to being in the same league as Jaws

For the inquiring minds, the my hat is like a Shark's fin line in the Deep Blue soundtrack is recycled from LL Cool J's hit song "I'm Bad" where he says: "They call me 'Jaws,' my hat is like a shark's fin.". So LL is a Jaws fan too.

Jaws 4 is a mess. But it's pretty clear, why Michael is start running on the beach. He's talking about his brother and then he's overwhelmed by his emotions and instead of breaking down crying he start's running to let it out.

[@Sam-im5tc]

Real disappointed by the shitting on The Meg. Theres been like 3 good shark movies since Jaws itself came out and The Meg is one of them. It's a movie about a Megalodon. Sure they could've done a little more craziness with that idea but it literally was the definition of a movie that knows exactly what it is and what is is is a much higher quality of campy cheese than Jaws 4 is. Seriously. I grew up watching Jaws. You'll never convince me the 3rd and 4th movies are anything more than a torture method bordering on violating the Geneva Convention.

[@alchemypotato]

God, I laughed so much over that The Reef reveal. All right, my rankings in parenthesis: Jaws: The Revenge (4): I'm starting to realize my fellow voters aren't that into so bad its good films. This film is a blast. And what can I say, it kind of ticks my 80s nostalgia box. Jaws 3-D (8): Coked out Dennis Quaid was kind of amusing but otherwise I was pretty bored with this. 47 Meters Down (9): Pretty dull. Just a general weak effort. The Reef (6): Some pretty photography but nothing special. Open Water (7): I was really torn on this. There's some bits that I thought were really effective and other stuff that I was thought was embarrassingly bad. I was also bored for a lot of it. The Meg (Dead Last): God, I hated this movie. Genuinely one of the most miserable dead last experiences I've had. Just not a movie that's made for me. Deep Blue Sea (3): Deep Blue Sea is fun. Jaws 2 (5): Was kind of surprised by how bad Jaws 2 is. I rewatched it right after Jaws and the quality really careens off a cliff. Far from the worst film on this list but pretty mediocre in my opinion. The Shallows (2): Having not heard of this I was surprised by how much it stood out from the pack. It's not a great film (I gave it 3 stars on Letterboxd) but there's just so much more thought and effort that was put into it than most of the other films we watched. Maybe it's weak to praise a movie for doing the bare minimum but a lot of these movies didn't so I think it earns the second place. Jaws (1): I don't love Jaws as much as some but it's a great film and none of these other films come anywhere close to it. My very lukewarm critique of the film is that I like the first half more than the second half because I'm a horror fan, not an action movie fan but we're talking about a pretty minor difference in enjoyment. All in all, this dead last isn't too far off my opinions. I'd say I liked Jaws: The Revenge more than most and The Meg much less than most.

[@movietimelines]

i can see thinking that jaws the revenge is terrible, but i can't see thinking that it's not a blast to watch.

[@alchemypotato]

@@movietimelines I sort of wonder whether people are ranking purely based on how good they are vs how entertaining they are. (Though for the record, I still probably wouldn't put The Revenge last on that measure.)

[@movietimelines]

i always tell people to just rank however they like. like, use whatever criteria that you see fit for your own list, so i get it if they're just going off of total quality. i'm definitely realizing that there's a strong distinction between horror fans that like HORROR, like straightforward horror, and fans of cult films in general, including horror, like "so bad it's good" stuff.

[@alchemypotato]

@@movietimelines Makes me think we should just do a pure so bad it's good dead last just to see what happens.

[@rogercase6205]

I would probably watch Jaws 2 or Deep Blue Sea before Jaws, because they're lighter "popcorn" movies, even though I'd rank Jaws #1 on any measure of quality. Also, if Jaws didn't exist then none of these other movies would exist - and possibly not even other movies such as Jurassic Park and such.

I think this is the first time my Dead Last & #1's were the same as the list. I almost put Meg as dead last but the effects were cool enough to put it in 9th place instead. Of the 4 trapped in the ocean movies we had to watch, Shallows definitely surprised me. I think it was the last one I watched, but I thought it looked great & the main character made staying in one pace seem interesting. However I don't think Shallows was as sexy as Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper made it sound.
