I didn't know that the mechanical shark was given the nick name "Bruce". I was watching a documentary on the making of the first one, and because of the salt water, they kept having it break down. So much so, because they increasingly went over budget, the director decided to use music, implication and camera angles to imply.
The scene that scared the shit out of me the most was in Jaws 1 was when Jaws slammed the back of the Orca, slammed the back of the boat and Quint couldn't hang on, and slid down into the shark's mouth and got bitten in half and drug down into the water. Point of the post is that I didn't know they gave the mechanical shark the nickname "Bruce".
And those were the last movies you watched?
