'Serenity'
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I agree. Though I'll always love Deep Blue Sea for the Samuel L. Jackson demise. That was sweet.
Totally. That's one of my guilty pleasure movies. It's a slasher movie, with sharks!
Oh, and Hec had that story about how he saw the head-in-the-boat make the entire audience jump out of their seats? Same thing happened with Deep Blue Sea and Sam Jackson. Also, I like Michael Rapaport, and Saffron Burrows is hot.
Jaws (which my cable system seems to always be running on some channel at every hour of the day and night) is, 27 years later, still a fucking SCARY-ASS movie.
Though I always root for Quint to be first on the shark's menu. He irritates me.
But Holli, if he found in in 1986, with a busted fuel line, that would be a pretty easy fix. It was only a problem in 1886 because they didn't have the equipment to repair it.
...dammit.
The first attack scene in Jaws with the girl out swimming late at night, and her boyfriend sitting on the shore, still creeps me the fuck out.

That movie is just so wonderfully gleeful about offing most of the cast. And unlike Leviathan they offed someone who wasn't the black guy in the last 5 minutes. I mean, Leviathan was a crap movie anyway, but they let Ernie Hudson get that far and then off him as an afterthought? For shame. At least the final death in DBS had some poetic justice attatched to it.

I heard the cast and crew hated Saffron Burrows so much they killed her off to ensure she couldn't be in a sequel.
I love all the nighttime attacks, from the first one to the two old guys on the dock, sacrificing the wife's Sunday roast for the reward, then getting the shit scared out of them when the shark took them up on the free dinner.
eta: Oooh, shiny round number!
Don't worry, Holly. Hil's forgotten something.... Marty doesn't find the Delorean left out for him in 1985, he finds where he's stuck - in 1955!
Your fanwank still holds water. There would have been no fuel pump for a 1985 Delorean available in 1955, though one imagines someone might have been able to make one up a little easier in a place where cars at least exist.
Hmm. Good point, Sean. I haven't seen either II or III in awhile, and I'd forgotten that.
