#but i’d never seen any clip of quint so i figured the one at the end was him and the body discoverer was a random character

saw jaws for the first time today and i can’t believe despite knowing so much about it through cultural osmosis i had no clue matt hooper existed and i love that funky little guy

#he’s just autistic about sharks and i love him for it. i forgive him for his crimes (being rich) #also his line about ‘having enough of these working class heroes’ or whatever. i was ready to fight him for that one #i knew about concerned police officer and weird old vaguely threatening fisherman but no one ever mentioned the silly little guy who just. #i knew when every jumpscare happened but i didn’t know one of the three main characters existed #he just loves sharks man. man was so funny. ‘hey i was told to tell you guys that you shouldnt all get in that boat’ ‘we’ll do it anyway’ #‘okay! they’re going to die :)’ #crazwaz posted #id seen the clip of matt discovering the body and the clip of them paddling to shore at the end!!! #but i’d never seen any clip of quint so i figured the one at the end was him and the body discoverer was a random character #he was wearing a wetsuit in the body scene and is seen from far away in behind in the final one so i have the right to not have realized ok #also weirdly enough my submechanophobia was not really triggered at all? which is wild. like one or two times it happened but like. that was #so weird to just. know that normally i’m scared of that kind of thing but it just. didn’t happen? like i’m scared of the jaws animatronic on #the universal ride! it scared me in pics and it scared me when i saw it irl! but bruce? nah she was just fine #that’s another thing i always think of bruce as she/her like. them all using he/him for the shark confused me #my brother mentioned she’s a girl in jaws 3d + in the wild girl sharks are bigger than boys so that’s probably what caused it #but i still think of godzilla as she/her and that one has like no evidence so maybe my brain just does that to them or smth
