Many people miss as the credits roll at the end you see the two guys in the distance coming out of the water and onto the beach. They do make it back alive.
I noticed that on or about the 20th time I watched 🥴
I noticed it back when I saw it in '75,but it's not as noticeable watching it on a modest sized TV.
Yes. That part is actually in the script too lol.
Great reaction. 17:00 mins. the youngest kid on the dorsal fin prank is now the town chief of police where this was shot.
I think Quint suffered from survivors dilemma and harbored a latent death wish.
Yeah. A pretty big Ahab complex.
that's why he smashed the radio, that and i think he was tired of the chief wanting to basically quit.
"You're gonna need a bigger boat."
Fun Fact: Several decades after the film's release, Lee Fierro, who played Mrs. Kintner, walked into a seafood restaurant and noticed "Alex Kintner Sandwich" on the menu. She commented that she had played his mother so many years ago; the owner of the restaurant ran out to meet her, and he was none other than Jeffrey Voorhees, who had played her son. They had not seen each other since the original movie shoot. I'm told Jeff still owns the restaurant at Martha's Vineyard and he loves talking to fans.
Lost Attraction Fact: Quint's boathouse set was built in Martha's Vineyard on an abandoned lot. The city council made the production crew sign an agreement to demolish it after filming and replace everything exactly as it had been, right down to the litter.
Writing Ensemble Fact: Quint's tale of the USS Indianapolis was conceived by playwright Howard Sackler, lengthened by screenwriter John Milius and rewritten by Robert Shaw following a disagreement between screenwriters Peter Benchley and Carl Gottlieb. Shaw presented his text, and Benchley and Gottlieb agreed that this was exactly what was needed. It's wildly considered the best scene of the movie.
Jeff Vorhees grew up in my neighborhood in Connecticut. He was a few years older than me but I played baseball with his younger brother and even though Jeff was older everybody knew everyone in the neighborhood. They moved to Martha's Vineyard just in time for him to get the opportunity to be cast as Alex Kintner and his brother was one of the kids running out of the water after the attack. When I was a kid and saw Jaws in the theater I was able to pick his brother out of the crowd but now after all the years that have passed I can't do it anymore.
Fun Fact: There Is a Guy in the Comments Section of Every Single Reactor Telling That Same Story to Every Reaction Video, of This Movie. He must have a small penis and this makes him feel very large.
"Jaws" was the name of the novel on which the movie was based.
The USS Indianapolis is in our history books. Quint's story is exaggerated on the number of deaths all being shark related. He is an interesting character driven by PTSD. No doubt shark hunting is his way of handling the memory with payback.
Chief Brody's constant need to call on the radio for help was frustrating Quint. Quint had already survived the Indianapolis without a radio, so he felt confident enough to smash that one. He wasn't going to let any help come in and steal away his latest shark conquest. Besides that, if word gets around that a prolific shark hunter had to call for help - his shark hunting business would suffer.
One of my favorite scenes is when Jaws goes under with 3 barrels and Quint realizes for the first time that he is in over his head.
Driven by PTSD? Where did you come up with that? He smashed the radio to make SURE he caught the shark and collected the 10 grand. Quit making shit up to make yourself look smart.
@@johnduval6377 You're kidding me, right? Just by watching the movie it's blatantly obvious that Quint suffers from PTSD. He smashed the radio for both money AND pride.
You don't even have to know the following for the answer: *Captain Quint is literally inspired by Captain Ahab.* Quint is obsessed with killing sharks. Ahab is obsessed with killing the white whale. Both men are motivated by revenge, and both are killed by the creatures they despite.
exactly, money and pride not the crap you were saying. You have no idea he had PTSD you just threw that out there. Did Ahab have PTSD also? He smashed the radio for the money!
@@johnduval6377 So what you are saying is you don't understand my posts any more than you understand what PTSD is, or both the characters Quint or Ahab.
My father, 4 uncles and 4 cousins served in ww2. None of them used PTSD as an excuse so for you to say Quint smashed the radio because of some excuse like PTSD is absolutely ridiculous! Quit using PTSD as an excuse for everything until YOU learn what it is! dipshit
Kid wasnt asking for coffee... he was asking for coffee flavored ice cream. Very popular in the 70s
Yup!
I still like it 😀
Sorry guys, the kid was asking for Coffee (the drink). Kids want to be like adults but never get to (for good reason) . He was using his situation to try and get an adult drink, that’s why she was so shocked at his comment.
@@scottdetterah, NO. His mother asked him what kind of ice cream he wanted and he answered her. Coffee ice cream. The end.
@@scottdetter And you asked him this?
How iconic is this music? Just imagine how many little kids have jumped in any kind of water humming da-da, da-da, da-da, da-da since the opening of this film nearly 50 years ago.
Fair play - Quint's death is one of the most traumatising, disturbing scenes in all of cinema... and your reaction was entirely authentic and appropriate. It took him 48 years, but Spielberg got you too.
Sharks name is actually Bruce... And this is why Bruce is the great white in finding Nemo
That’s what they called the animatronic, the shark doesn’t actually have a name
@@wallacehenryhartley1209 yes! You're correct. thank you for this unnecessary clarification that the shark in Jaws is not an actual shark.
@@jbmopar1971 they also called the animatronic “A pain in the ass to work with” yet I don’t see anyone saying its name was A Pain In The Ass To Work With
Those barriers on the beach are snow fences. They work on blowing sand too. It gives the snow/sand a slow down so the wind drops the load to keep if from drifting.
Yup, Quint's tale of the S.S. Indianapolis is very real. Nice reaction!
It's the best scene in the whole movie, imho.
Ben Gardner, still jump scaring viewers after 45 years - regardless of how good or how poorly a reactor is doing up to then, it's almost always worth the wait.
It wasn't just the mayor. All the business people wanted the beaches open too.
Loved your reaction. This has always been a blast to watch with someone who hasn't seen it. I used to go to movie parties back in the 70s and 80s just to see people jump out of their chairs. The original viewing in the theater was hilarious when the head popped out of the hole. Drinks and popcorn were flying everywhere. Girls were screaming and clawing their boyfriends, big fun.
Yes, the USS Indianapolis mission was secret. Many sailors couldn't/wouldn't say what they were doing and their family only knew that they were on the Indianapolis. When their kids saw the movie, they would come home and let their dad's know that the Indianapolis was in the movie and it opened a lot of Father's eyes. There's a few good books about it.
Quint's only a sailor, not an officer, so his story checks out from his PoV. But there's a glitch in it: Indy had completed her transport run and was actually transferring to a new formation, using a behind-the-lines route, thought to to be relatively safe. So that particular transit was not a secret and was in fact totally mundane - hence a big part of the problem. Transferring between commands meant, to an extent, transferring between communication hierarchies. And that means she slipped between the cracks, as it were. Logged off of one command, not yet logged into the next one when she went down. So no-one was looking out for her.
Something similar caused the slaughter off Savo in late summer 42, when a recon unit communicating through one command structure sighted the Japanese force which would, hours later, attack forces under a different theatre command structure, so the report never got to the men who needed to know.
Basic human errors and flaws; the mundanity of it all makes it even more tragic.
the news reporter at the beach is the writer Peter Benchley, and shark cage scenes were shot of the coast of Australia
I was waiting for that moment, you know the one. You did not disappoint. :)
I saw this movie in the theater when I was like 12. Paid for a different movie and snuck into this one. That face in the boat was quite memorable.
The kid meant coffee-flavored ice cream
I was 5 years old, seen it at the drive in with my parents , it is the scariest movie I ever seen, loved the reactions 👍✌️
23:12...The barrel's full of air so it makes it difficult for the shark to submerge. If you put enough barrels into a shark you can slow it down enough to drowned it (and you won't lose the body because, once again, the barrels float) 😉😊
People always say about the playful music, but as a kid I didn’t notice it as unusual, it seemed to complement the narrative of terror and majesty of the shark, especially Quint having a love-hate relationship with sharks.
24:49 - "Quint" is obviously a fictional character but his story about the USS Indianapolis is indeed a true story. It was a real ship and was sunk by a Japanese submarine and loads of the men onboard ended up being eaten by sharks
I saw this movie in the theatre when it came out. NO ONE went into the ocean all over that summer. The times i went to the beach I was nervous. Lakes were the popular place. Interesting how a film can affect the entire publics perception
Love this girl and her great comments. Saw this film back in 1970s.❤
Jaws refers to Quint's personal vendetta against sharks. His shack is decorated by dozens of boiled down shark's jaws.
I'd drink too, if I had survived the Indianapolis. They didn't even know it had been sunk because it was on a secret mission.
The boy did not want coffee. He wanted coffee flavored ice cream, it's delicious.
8:32...I know you're an expert on sharks but you only see the fin if the shark is near the surface and this one clearly isn't...also aharks tend not to attack boats as inanimate objects don't normally generate the correct stimulus 😉😊
This was the first U.S. blockbuster film. Everybody was trying to get out to the island when they were filming this. It was crazy! My sister wouldn't swim in the ocean for years after this. The head popping out of the boat under water had popcorn flying in the theater. Quite a jump scare! Nice reactions to the original Jaws, Miss Little Fish!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The shark has no given name, but the shark models used in the film were all named "Bruce". Trivia, In the movie Finding Nemo, the great white shark named Bruce, was named after the shark in Jaws.
Water will change the trajectory of the bullet, it will also slow it down. Plus I don't think that little 38 would even phase the shark.
Stabbing might work, but great white sharks can have skin up to 6" think. So you would need a very long blade on a knife to get to any vital organs.
Charleton Heston was recommended for Brody's role. Spillbeans went, 'oh no, not Moses'.
the old rubberfish still holds up with CGI very well.
You let them take it when they are fighting and pull them in when they stop and if you just pull them in you run having your line break or the hook to pop off or out so its a game of give and take
That scene with the USS Indianapolis Is very largely true and also the best part of the movie.
Amazing masterpiece Jaws directed by Steven Spielberg starring Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw, Richard Dreyfuss and the iconic music score by John Williams. The famous line in this film is "You're gonna need a bigger boat". Thank you great reaction this film has three sequels but my favorite is the first film👍👍
Coffee flavored ice cream. I've heard so many reactors say the same thing. I'm pretty sure they still have coffee ice cream. I could be wrong.
I lost my faith in politicians’ motives when the Mayor of Amity Island was re-elected for Jaws II. 😂
Subbed!
I tried to count how many questions were asked but lost count
I'm sixty-eight years old and seen this movie when the first came out, this is one or two movies in history that had a psychological and cultural effect on a entire country, the other was The exorcist. I can witness that people were afraid to go in the ocean for an entire summer and people are afraid to go to sleep for a few days after seeing the exorcist
Yes same with me!
Everyone hates that bloody mayor, but the actor did have a real career outside of this film.
There are easily over 100 reaction videos out there for this movie, but you're one of the only ones to mention how other sharks are going to be attracted to the blood after Jaws blows up. Your entire reaction was great, but the fact that you caught that made me very happy, lol. I know I was late to the party here, but just wanted to let you know there are some of us that really appreciate the thoughtful comments during reactions! Great job!!
This is my favorite movie of all time.
Steven Spielberg didn't show the shark that much because it had a lot of mechanical problem and that's why he substituted the music before seeing the
JAWS is just an anatomical title all animals have a jaw
24:26 - Yes Quints story was 💯 % true. Google USS Indianapolis
I'm assuming that the police chief has 2 telephones because: 1 phone for personal calls and 1 phone for police business.
They never say it in the film, but the shark's name is actually Bruce, named after a lawyer
Good observation...it was filmed in Spring in Massachusetts... definitely not 4th of July temperatures.
redhead + blue eyes + freckles what more can a guy ask for
14:35 Ben Gardner’s head: scaring unsuspecting viewers since 1975.
I saw it in the theater when it came out - people shreaked at that part for 30 seconds. People were crying in fear. For me, for the first 1/10th of a second I thought it was the shark coming out of the hole. Best movie ever made.
FYI, Ms. LFR, the movie is coming through the headphones in mono, right ear only. Your audio is fine. As are you. But they were never equipped to _kill_ a shark that big (or so they thought). Going out there their intention was to catch him and bring him back to shore. Quint unsuccessfully tried to stop him with all he knew he had. Went down fighting.
if you watch the movie for an extra minute you wouldn't have to ask a thousand questions. the movie would explain them for you. that's what movies do.
'Jaws' isn't the name of the shark, although it is often referred to as such in pop culture. Peter Benchley: author of the original novel was looking for a short, punchy title and JAWS came to mind as it is what we fear about sharks the most...
JAWS was the first giant shark movie. Sharks in movies and tv shows were these dolphin sized fish an it surprised a lot of people to know that 12' 0r 15' Great Whites were common and fishermen and surfers reported seeing 20' long ones. So the shark in the movie being 25' in length could be believed.
The barriers on the beach are sand gates. They help knock the sand down when the wind catches it. You have to take into account that it was a different time back then. We know tons more about sharks, thanks in part to the mania driven by this movie. People were less exposed to things. You made the point...How is that line going to hold a shark. How could a shark be a danger if you're in a boat. Once people see that a fish can attack and sink a boat, they have a new perspective. Little things like when Quint crushes the beer can and Hooper responds by crushing the cup. Cute, but big whoop, right? The full effect is lost because nobody today realizes beer cans, back then, were steel, not aluminum. It took considerably more grunt to crush one single-handed. Also, a handgun wouldn't stop a shark that size, maybe an elephant rifle, but who has one of those, especially on the east coast then, or even now? Also, a shark that size wouldn't care if Mike Tyson, in his prime, punched his nose.
I like your style of editing and your way to react. You seem to be at the same time an uncomplicated but quite sharp person. And a nice smile on top! Cool
1. Goof: Chrissie's body parts are too far up the beach to have been washed up there without a storm.
2. Boy Scouts don't need to do the mile swim to get their Merit badge. It's an accomplishment all its own.
3. Lee Fierro/Mrs. Kentner actually slapped Roy Scheider. It took 17 takes. Once was so hard it knocked his glasses off.
4. The jump scare at Ben Gardner's boat was put in on purpose by Spielberg because they were having problems with the shark "Bruce" and his appearance was delayed, and the movie needed something earlier. Works every time.🤣🤣
5. IRL Dreyfuss and Shaw didn't get along, so Spielberg used the animosity to fuel their feud onscreen.
6. The boy that said, "He made me do it' is now the Police Chief of the town where this movie was filmed.
7. Hooper was right. The fish that hit the line was a game fish.
8. "You're gonna need a bigger boat" is one of the greatest adlibs in history. It was the first time Roy actually saw Bruce. It was an ongoing trope within the filming due to budgetary problems.
9. Goof: An animal that large couldn't hit the side of the boat as rapidly as it did UNDER WATER.
10. I suspect Quint's story about the Indy gave him PTSD flashbacks and contributed to his behavior after he told the story.
11. I was in the Navy, and we were instructed to go for the eyes when confronting a shark.
12. Aside from the pool used in the Ben Gardner boat scenes, all of the shipboard scenes were filmed entirely at sea,
13. In the book not only does Hooper die but he was also having an affair with Mrs. Brody.
14. JAWS II is the only other one worth watching. It revolves around the Brody kids and their friends. Including one of the mayors' kids.
15 The third one was so bad that Scheider read the script and said NO.
The third one was great in 3D. It sucks without that effect as all the scenes were literally made for it. The 4th is so bad that they couldn’t even figure out if Mario Van Peebles lived or died. It all depends on which version you watch
Wow, some really dumb comments. "Is the shark's name Jaws?" Yes, they named it Jaws.
24:45 It was real! Although the sharks only went for the bodies already dead as they don’t fight back
Watch The Thing, directed by John Carpenter.
Great reaction. Steven Spielberg named the shark Bruce after his lawyer. 🦈
Great positioning of her image at 4:41
0:30 ba…BY ba…BY shark SHARK shark SHARK shark SHARK shark SHARK… 🎶
Yes Quints story about the USS Indianapolis is a true story
Yep it's a real story and the actor wrote his own dialogue.
The Indianapolis that quint spoke about it in one if the best movie speeches of all time [watch Dreyfuss in the background as he was enraptured. That wasn't scting) absolutely happened in ww2. Crack a history book.
Punch his nose? The shark is 30 feet long, not 4 ft lol.
"Don't go swimming there's sharks"
She doesn't go swimming. There's no movie.
The Story of the Indianapolis is real and scary. If I had survived through that I wouldn't be near any body of water at all for the rest of my life
They were talking about coffee flavored ice cream
Coffee ice cream? What the
@@justinedse8435 Yes. It's a thing. It's not my thing, but it's out there.
@@justinedse8435coffee ice cream. You may not have it where you live but we grew up on it and it's still sold.
The sharks name was actually Bruce. Bruce was malfunctioning a lot so a bunch of scenes that originally had him scripted didn't make the cut.
Named Bruce for Spieberg's lawyer as his name was Bruce
Now you conquered jaws I recommend the meg or 47 meters down
Here, here!
"Who's watching the kids?"
Nobody. It was the 1970's. Nobody watched their kids back then. I know, I grew up then.
It's to get them tired that's why you let the reel out and in😜 and fishing 🎣 line is very strong 🤗
Quint didn't want to lose the 10,000 (50,000 in today's money) by calling for help.
It wasn't just that. He was a salty old toughguy and didn't want any help from the Coast Guard or anyone. It was an ego and pride thing.
@@DB-kl9bp pride was definitely part of it. No way was some college boy Coast Guard was going to bail him out. Especially against a shark!
@@matthewdunham1689 true, he didn't want to be bailed out. On a side note, Coast Guard personnel are not really college boys. They've joined the CG instead of going to college.
@DB-kl9bp I'm just trying to emulate ornery Quint.
@@matthewdunham1689 ornery - perfect adjective for Quint! He didn't want to work with someone with city hands!
😀♥️😀♥️😀♥️♥️😀♥️ one of the greatest movies ever made ❤️
The mayor, like every other politician, is about as useful as a screen door on a submarine.
20:25...By letting the fish run then reeling it in and then letting it run again you tire it out and make it easier to catch
Also, it balances the control of the fish with the tension on the line. If you just keep reelin with a good size fightin fish, it'll pop the line.
Coffee ice cream! Not coffee. His mother asked him what kind of ice cream he wanted and he told her coffee. Coffee ice cream.
And good old Ben claims another victim. That jump scare rarely fails. even decades later.
Not that you are still reading comments after this much time, but the reason for the barrel, and for letting a fish pull out the line and reel in it in a bit over and over, is to tire it out. A small fish, say a few pounds is too weak to fight a full grown human but even they can break a line. So you let them tire themselves out until the "fight" is gone and you pull them in.
The reason they don't shoot it with a spear gun is pretty much the same reason you wouldn't hunt a bear with a pocket knife, IF you got through the hide/skin can drew blood at best you'd piss it off. You wouldn't be likely you kill it unless you got VERY lucky.
Yes the story of the WWII boat is real. You also need to consider the era, yes they could put a radio tracker on it... but they were hardly like modern GPS, you would have a heck of a time tracking in and it probably only worked in a meter of water, any lower and the signal would be too weak.
Yep, the villain in this movie isn't the shark, it's the mayor.
LMAO Ben Gardener's head gets them every time
As is already been pointed out but yes the story of the USS Indianapolis is true although not every death was caused by sharks, the numbers of those rescued versus a number people that went into the water in the beginning are accurate
your editing is great.
You asked how does the fishing line hold a shark...he's using piano wire
Thank you Ms For your posting I believe i had the Movie its self I liked your reactions you were so calm and Not over reacting Like Most ladies on here do thank you again Charlie
Little Fish look at a Big Fish.
You kind of answered your own question. That shark is so powerful that the line/wire he was using would not be able to 'muscle' that shark in all at once, therefore reels have a 'drag' mechanism that lets out line as the force the shark is exerting nears the line's breaking point.
And then factors like wire doesn't stretch so it snaps easier while monofilament line does stretch which helps absorb energy.
Drink coffee on the weekend, like I do. It's fun.
8:13 That’s what _she_ said!
*sees your reaction **0:00** - **2:15* Well, i don't have a clear view of what's going on inside your head but it's safe to assume that Fear doesn't have much control of your reactions.
The shark was too big, you can't just kill it with one harpoon. The purpose of the barrels is to tire the shark out and finally to immobilize it. A shark has to constantly swim to breathe. It has to keep water flowing over it's gills. If it stops, it drowns. That's what the barrels are for.
The sharks name is Bruce
They named the shark as...Bruce.
Thanks for the reaction. For sure one of my favorite movies ever, watched it when it first came out. Spielberg‘s filmmaking is legendary. Even with all of the new effects they do now, movies are so commercialized that they tend to be in a big hurry and it’s evident in the finished product. God bless and thanks again!
My head hurts 🤣😵
you would be wrong thinking so many people would scare the shark away there have been attacks when there were 50 to 100 people in the water and a shark even picked out a person and went through other people to attack and kill the person it picked! i have been researching sharks for years and almost everything you see the shark do they have done in real life.
The Indianapolis story is true.
The story of the USS Indianapolis is true.
It has two truths the movie is based on fact and the ship 🛳 he was talking about was real
