Jaws was scary because of shark.

Titanic was scary because of iceberg.

Water did nothing wrong.

Wow, I never knew the CIA faked building the Titanic.

Nope. I'm afraid of it. And it's 2025 so that means we ban it. No more water!

I hadn't seen that one--funny. Seriously, though, Jaws is about human greed/unethical behavior and relationships. I consider it a drama more than a creature feature.

Aw shit. You just reminded me of seeing Jaws from the back seat of the station wagon at the drive in at 7 when I was supposed to be sleeping.
