Let's learn a little about sharks scene. He's getting obsessed and is freaking himself out in the process.

Wife is finally buying into the whole fear of sharks thing. Stakes get higher, we see her as being a little bit more easy going than Brody. Now that she's scared, we become more scared.

Ah, Brad, this is like hanging out with you the way I wished we had while you lived here.

I misses you.

I miss you, too.

Come to Hawai'i, let's go swimming!

Some guy in Maui just got bitten by a shark. A biggun from what I hear.

Day for night action on the dock. Guy gets pulled into the water. The dock tells us where the shark is. The dock turns around and heads for Charlie. Very suspenseful. Nicely done. Dock flows to shore, shark is gone. Ends on a laugh to let us off the hook for a little bit, so to speak.

Human shark hunting frenzy. Much like what happened after the movie came out.

"Hello back, young feller how are ya?"

We get introduced to Hooper. Immediately, we like Hooper. Hooper is now the voice of science. We have the everyman, the emotional Brody, the well known jaded Quint and the logical Hooper. Pathos, Ethos and Logos all on a boat facing nature later on.

We get a reminder that Quint is still around. He passes through the scene quietly, almost shark like.

One of my favorite lines, "A whaaaat?!" This huge fisherman delivering the line like a Castro queen. Love it!

So the last scene tells us that boats are not that safe and now here comes the scene where docks aren't all that safe either.

Brody flips through the shark book. There's a quick foreshadowing about the ending in this series of short shots.

The pics of the real wounds shows us the real danger that sharks pose on humans. Placed in this movie, it plants the seed in our heads that yes all this can happen. (Whether it can or not, the seed is planted.)

Frank Silva, friend of the Commodore? Toot?

Whenever I see this movie, I think of iSm when I think of Hooper. Just saying. Tell me Steve's not Hooper.

Again, Spielberg uses humor to keep the story plodding along. The movie could have been quite dull at this point. But by keeping us laughing and liking people he keeps our interest in the story going. It's a gruesome story peppered with a lot of humor. It's nice, actually. This happens in Poltergeist too. Scary story, funny people.

Ben Garner. Bit player who is funny. We meet him in just a couple of short scenes but we like him alright. It makes it even sadder when he gets it later.

In a quick scene we learn what chumming is. It happens quick but it's a necessary piece of info.
