But wasn't Jaws the real monster? ๐ค
My name is Bruce
Fish are friends, not food.

I asked ai what the sharks name is and this is what it replied:
The shark in Jaws was never officially named in the movie, but behind the scenes, it was affectionately called Bruce. Steven Spielberg named the mechanical shark after his lawyer, Bruce Ramer. The name stuck, and Jaws fans still refer to the great white terror as Bruce today.
Did you know that Pixar paid homage to this by naming the friendly-but-menacing shark in Finding Nemo "Bruce" as well?
It's also the name of the shark in the survival crafting game Raft.
Aw someone beat me to it

-You won't see her until the end of the game.
-She's a "her"?
-Yes, she's the princess of... uh... Never mind. Let me show you this cool bomb I picked up in the last room.

"So... what is your name?"
"Sigh. Richard. Richard Kiel."
"Isn't that the name of the actor..."
"Yes. Yes it is. My parents were hilarious."

"Wait. Were hilarious?"
"I ate them."
"Ah."
I don't get it
