I love the original two Jaws, but no, today, outside the acting, the mechanical shark does not fool me today. The acting still stands up, but the special effects, no.
I've never seen a shark with jaw skin flab that makes it look like a basset hound.
Even the makers admitted, at the time, their initial intent was to rely on the visuals of a shark. But in the making the movie they had so many problems with the mechanical shark, they ended up relying more on implication and music. What made the first two Jaws successful was more about not actually seeing the shark than the special effects.

Reconsider how you portray Native American names. Is it funny enough to be worth it?
Fun fact, the dispatcher in Adam-12 in reality was a real police dispatcher before taking on that role.
In addition to reconsidering your treatment of Native names, you might also give some thought to what facts are considered ‘fun’.

I did not make that word play to poke fun of his name, it really was just word play. I loved him in Emergency as a kid. I wanted to be him as a kid.
I don’t think you did it intentionally, it’s just that you’ve got a tin ear for this sort of thing. You’re not malicious, just insensitive.
