[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 331574, member: 23"] Watching last night, the only remaining Hancock shot in the film (the boats moving in the harbour at night and the shark fin appearing) looked absolutely stunning with its blue filtered hue. I think his version of [I]Jaws 2 [/I]would have been a fantastic looking film. Absolutely. Even Fogarty the chemist phones Brody [U][I]before[/I][/U] developing all the pictures. And it just happens that the first he develops in front of Brody is the one with the shark. It's such a contrivance it's almost annoying. But it's such a creepy moment - helped by John Williams's score - that I give them a pass. In a way it's probably no more contrived than Ben Gardner's head popping out of the boat, or Brody and Hooper failing to mention Gardner's death to Vaughn. I can relate. That's exactly the experience I've had this week. Same here. I was lucky enough to see it in cinemas when it was re-released after being upgraded to HD, and it was wonderful. Best of all, the cinema was almost empty because I went on a weekday, so I felt like it was being screened especially for me. :D Again, it's the same for me. [I]Jaws 2 [/I]is the only one of the series I haven't seen on the big screen. I'd love to remedy that. Perhaps in 2028 for its 50th?! ;) [/QUOTE]
