Very Important Idea for the Movie Jaws:

I was a little disappointed to see on Mythbusters that it would have been impossible to kill Jaws as depicted in the original movie:by exploding a scuba tank clenched in the shark's teeth.

This got me to thinking: what if Roy Scheider had tossed an old crt into Jaws' mouth? Surely shooting one of those with an M1 would have yielded some deadly force.

So c'mon Mr. Speilburg, you already used CG to alter really asinine things in your ET rerelease, surely you can smell the $$$$ in a Jaws rerelease with "new really awesome effects".

Oh sure, YOU'RE asking how Quint had a crt on board his booze-powered shark boat: well, I've got that covered-instead of those yellow float barrels to bring his catches up, he uses old picture tubes! Remember, those things DO float, after all. "One time I caught a sixteen footer off of Montauk. Had to stick two 21fb22s in him...."

and yes, I do have the flu, and most definitely this whole post was brought on by a fever dream I had this afternoon.
