View submission: Podrassic Cast: Jaws with Timothy Simons
My wife and I are drinking apricot brandy tonight and watching the movie. She’s never seen it. The jump scares have been so fun to experience with her. The movie rules.
I think that inside every man is a Boy Scout, an Overconfident Nerd, and a Drunk Lunatic.

The USS Indianapolis monologue never fails to disappoint. Lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll’s eyes. ⚫️⚫️

I took my sister to a showing when she was in high school. I asked what she thought when we left and she shouted “That’s one of my new favorite movies! It had everything! I loved the old pirate!”

I've always considered Jaws to be the gold standard for how to do jumpscares. There's arguably only two: one big one (the head popping out of the boat) and one small one (the shark popping out of the chum water). The lower a horror film keeps its jumpscare count, the more I respect it. I'm not anti-jumpscare, don't get me wrong, this film's use of them are perfect, but I think we can all agree less is SO much more.

No shade, but it's amazing to me that somebody hasn't seen this. I envy your wife, as it's such a fun ride.
