History Funny / Jaws

** And all through the rest of the scene, Brody is babbling about [[OverlyLongGag calling in a bigger boat.]]

* At one point, Quint crushes a beer can[[note]]Which at the time were made from tin instead of aluminum, so they were harder to crush back then[[/note]] in his hand, and Hooper responds by doing the same thing with a styrofoam cup.

* Hooper watching some of the would-be shark-killers: "Ha ha, they're all gonna die."

* The moment when Hooper visits the Brody household with some wine as a souvenir. Martin, fed up with the whole shark problem, starts filling his ''pint'' with the wine despite Hooper's protests that he should let it breathe. Then, he gives Ellen and Hooper the smallest amount imaginable.

* "My husband tells me you're in sharks."

Most Ph.D students don't finish their degrees until their late-20s, and even that can be prolonged depending on the research. Also, compared to Shaw and Scheider, he was relatively young. It is true, however, that this was a case of casting not matching the script as the script was adjusted for Dreyfuss.
*** And people can start to go grey in even their late teens.

--> '''Brody''': THAT'S GREAT ! THAT'S JUST GREAT ! NOW WHERE THE HELL ARE WE HUH ?! YOU'RE CERTIFIABLE, QUINT, YOU KNOW THAT ?! YOU'RE CERTIFIABLE !

* When the shark makes it's first appearance while the trio are out on the ''Orca'', Brody's reaction is to freak out, and Quint's is to prepare to harpoon it. ''Hooper's'' reaction is to excitedly grab his camera and start snapping photos, while demanding that Brody get closer to the shark in order to give it a reference point for size. [[Understatement Brody... is not pleased with this plan.]]
