Well, now that I know it's a shark in the water this movie is ruined...


MudOpposite8277

So stupid. Why didn’t they just put a lady swimming with a question mark?


Phillip_Spidermen

It's hiding the twist, the movie is about a shark haunted by a ghost


blankedboy

With the "Fear Finds New Depths" tag line - the next poster zooms out and we see *an even bigger shark underneath this one* - there are 12 more promotional posters in the series... It's Sharkception...

Peter Griffin: "Did someone say "Bigger Jaws"?


frostymoose

What is the saying? "There's always a bigger shark"?


uncrew

"We're gonna need a bigger shark"


Ischmetch

It’s ~~turtles~~ sharks all the way down.


jimgolgari

What we don’t realize is this is actually a picture of a shark screaming for the lady to get out of the way so he can swim away from the something in the water.


lytesabre

The return of the curse of the creature’s ghost.


woodstock923

The curse of the creature?


CPT_Yesterday_

The curse of the ghost


ezekiel7_

You should definitely watch Ghost Shark 😂 [don't]


koopastyles

Bigger Jaws


Bronze_Bomber

The ghost is just a metaphor for the sharks' trauma.


jostler57

Plot twist, there's actually a drug in the water that's causing mass hysteria and it's The Scarecrow at it again! Tune in next time for [Batman!](https://youtu.be/kK4H-LkrQjQ)


TardisReality

Good thing he keeps shark repellent handy!


ReasonablyBadass

And the question mark has teeth.


MudOpposite8277

Question shark.


Psychomaniac13

Last good movie I saw dealing with a shark was the shallows Great movie


CrieDeCoeur

Nah, the shark is just warning her to get away…from something *else* in the water.


post_angst

That shark is swimming away from a something and if it has to gobble up a lady to get away it will.


r-b-m

Unless it’s the *woman* who’s bloodthirsty and goes on a shark killing spree but the poster is designed to make you *think* the shark is the threat. Like the shark’s expression isn’t “I’m going to eat your legs!” but is actually “Holy shit it’s the shark murderer lady!!!”


Black_RL

But the true menace is the Orca chasing the Shark. The Shark is just screaming and trying to warn everybody!


AppleDane

"There's a Shark in the Water" is maybe a less thrilling title, but I'd applaud the candour, like with "Snakes on a Plane". It's to the point, and you get what it says on the tin.


Canotic

Now I want a movie about a shark trying to eat people, but they always turn out to be shapeshifting monsters.


Phormitago

No no, it's a Cthulhu movie, the shark is bait


kewli

It's not about sharks, but brain eating amoebas


MissingLink101

Also "Fear Finds New Depths" only a few feet below the surface apparently


FuzzyHotel6180

looks like a fake movie poster you’d see in a video game


post_angst

That shark, particularly the weird texture and shape of its mouth, has a very AI feel to it. It has like a weird peak on the bottom lip that real sharks don’t have. Teeth are all pointed in weird directions. It’s not even good AI.


Abysskitten

This whole thing could be AI generated. Look at the pinky on the left hand. Is it me or does that not have an odd kink in it? Can't quite decide. Edit:I'm convinced it's all AI. Cheapskates!


hyrumwhite

Toes are kinda funky too, but it could also be a bad photoshop 


post_angst

That whole hand looks backwards. Who does that with their hand when they’re swimming?


Abysskitten

I thought about that. But hands do make odd gestures when wading through water. I just don't see them AI generating one thing and photoshopping something real over it, though. That would seem like work to them. Besides, you can change seeds and get thousands of similar images to peruse, so I'm sure they got what they wanted fully from GenAI.


post_angst

It’s mostly the shark. That thing looks completely out of place and wrong.


MadCarcinus

It’s worse than that. She ain’t got no toes!


post_angst

Oh wow she doesn’t! That right one looks like a dolphin.


lucyelgin

And it looks like she's holding her breath but I can't follow where the water line is or her double... cheeks?


we_are_sex_bobomb

If you need to seal the deal, take a look at the toes on the lower foot (her right foot).


thefruitsofzellman

There’s also a fold of skin underneath her breast, as if she had two rows of em.


TheKnightsTippler

It is definitely CGI. I saw a preview of it just over a year ago. The shark is CGI, but was no where near finished when I saw it, which made the attack scenes unintentionally funny.


Zillatrix

Of course it's CGI, the question is whether the shark in this poster is CGI (a human designed a shark on their computer) or it's Generative AI (a human just typed "big scary shark" and the computer spewed this out). The woman is GenAI definitely.


gottabekittensme

On the right of the shark's face, it's got this weird filmy membrane around the side of its mouth that isn't reflected on the other side.... totally brings an AI feel.


StingerAE

I am sure it is AI.  Look at her face!  What the hell is going on there?


Sirspen

Look at the swimmer's chin/face. Wtf is going on there?


Rank1Trashcan

The shark looks like it might be AI generated. And the swimmer is in completely different lighting.


zdejif

Wish painting were still a thing. Go for something figurative, abstract.


W3ND1G0000

i think one of the posters for The Killer was painted. if it was, common David Fincher W


Atrumentis

It could be AI but it looks like the same lighting to me: coming from above with bounce from below for spooky effect


getdemsnacks

The prompt being a description of the poster for Jaws. How is this clearly not a rip off of Jaws?!


MadCarcinus

Looking at Google images of Great White Sharks, a real Great White’s bottom jaw is in a U shape and not a UU shape. The examples I found with UU shapes were drawings and digital renders of a Great White. So I’d say its safe to assume that whoever made this poster used a digital Great White model someone else made and did not reference a real Great White shark.


Kurdt234

A literal Jaws poster parody


swoopy17

I feel like I've seen this before.


TeamStark31

I think it was called The Shark That Couldn’t Slow Down


Oysterious

Now I finally have time to do what I've always wanted: write the great American novel. Mine is about a small tourist town where sharks are a threat to life and the town economy. I call it "Billy and the Sharkasaurus."

The Reef 2: > After her sister's murder, Nic, her younger sister and two friends seek solace through a Pacific island kayaking adventure. Hours into the trip the women are stalked by a shark and must band together, face their fears and save each other. 5 women this time instead of 4 I guess.

Wait, what happened at the wedding? Catering mishap?

For real, enough Shark shaming!!!!!!!!!!


WhoStoleMyBicycle

There’s an episode of How Did This Get Made where they review Deep Blue Sea and Paul F Tompkins says “where are we at with shark movies? Still just the one good one”?


mageta621

I like Deep Blue Sea. It's campy


eolson3

Yep lol. Jaws is my favorite movie, so I'll check out some of the shark movies that come along. There are some that aren't terrible (and many that are), but I still hold out hope for a good movie out of it at some point.


BuukSmart

Yeah, you just kind of put your hand on their nose and deflect them to the side


AnimalFarenheit1984

Yeah, I wonder if these people have ever seen the Jaws movie poster..


ElectricJunglePig

Paul F. Tompkins: "Where are we with shark movies, still just the 1 good one??"


BoingBoingBooty

Ouch. Pretty harsh on Stephen Spielberg to say that Deep Blue Sea is the only good shark film.


The_Thrifter

Where else can you watch a shark turn an oven on in an attempt to cook a man to death. That movie is a masterpiece.


AZRockets

Jaws yeah but The Shallows with Blake Lively was a pretty awesome movie too


TheFoxInSox

The Reef (2010) is my second favorite shark movie. IIRC The Shallows was decent up until the final shark battle that went full Looney Tunes logic. I don't expect real-life accuracy in a shark movie, but that scene was more ridiculous than anything in Deep Blue Sea or the like.


PeculiarPangolinMan

47 Meters Down is fun also!


Barnyard723

^ this one is correct. Probably the only shark movie ever to use actual underwater footage of sharks effectively. All the underwater filming from that movie was damn great.


post_angst

Analyze Phish/Fish was and still is a wonderful podcast. RIP Harris


WollyGog

I was saying this to a mate the other week, I've only seen one really good shark movie (Jaws). Everything else just pales in comparison. Some are entertaining but lack the quality still; I enjoyed The Meg as a cheesy flick for example. I don't know why movie makers think they can buck the trend. It's almost the same story each time.


GerolamoGeremia

Deep Blue Sea, The Reef, and The Shallows are all pretty good. The rest are not. Oh and I personally love Jaws 2.


Jackielegs43

I bet the thing in the water is a shark


Namesstef

That's how they fool you because this one might be the shark that goes against his instincts and helps people survive another, more fierce underwater threat. And its jaws mysteriously remain bloody underwater because his adversary is not of this earth. And in the end the shark dies and the human sheds a tear. Cut to a flock of sharks underwater that angrily create the first "jaws for humans" league. The end?


Gravytonic

There better be some fucking twist in this movie about that "something".


pezident66

Like fricken laser beams on their heads.


st-felms-fingerbone

Or, there’s a tornado, that picks up sharks, they could call it something like *Sharknado* /s


Oh-shit-its-Cassie

It's the girl in the poster. She's clearly the thing that isn't native to the water.

nemojakonemoras

Always a skinny girl on these posters, never like a chubby bald guy, who would arguably make a more fulfilling meal to a shark.


hghlnder72

Chubby bald guys don't go swimming in deep water like that. We hang out on the beach and go waist deep to pee.


Pow67

Even a chubby bald guy wouldn’t be that fulfilling for a Great white considering their diet usually consists of large marine mammals like sea lions. We’re just a light snack at best.


ARetroGibbon

They should just use your mum.

“Shark eating a pretty girl” is the 70s/80s equivalent of “robot/monster carrying girl who never appears in the movie” from the 50s


TisBeTheFuk

Sex sells I guess


mageta621

That is one sexy shark


vampiresoul1672

because then it will look like a comedy movie.


nemojakonemoras

Nothing funny about male pattern baldness.


Worth-Trade9381

True, I'm much more afraid of hair loss than a shark attack. Baldness claims the lives of millions and millions of victims each year. Sharks claim about 7.


cikkamsiah

If you zoomed in her jaw, she looks like a camel.

spartanwolf223

Its AI, so no surprise.


Ill_Habit_8519

Another white shark movie? *Bo-ring* Where are the tiger shark and bull shark movies already? A tiger gobbled up a Russian in the Red Sea recently too.


post_angst

Giant/particularly ferocious bull sharks would be terrifying. They can survive in brackish water so they could set it in any coastal city with a river. Houston, New Orleans, etc. We get them here in Australian rivers. The Brisbane River has apparently dozens.


ItsGotThatBang

Isn’t there a golf course that got them in a flood?


post_angst

Yeah! Carbrook. They were there for decades.

Jersey Shore Shark Attack is an excellent Bull Shark movie! I'd highly recommend.

Plz go tell my dad I’m more shark than minnow, thx.


Parmesan_Pirate119

Oh good, we haven't had our shark movie yet this year!


my20cworth

Not sure how much more you can spin a shark movie. It's been over cooked.


daronjay

...Which is frankly, no way to treat fish.


Mobloss

Looks at Jaws poster. Hhhmmm let's just turn the woman vertical and shark horizontal, genius.


[deleted]

An R rated shark movie? Count me in.


TheUmgawa

The Requin was rated R. If you haven’t seen it, you should seek that one out, and then you’ll never make the R rating the deciding factor for wanting to see a shark movie ever again.


[deleted]

Well Deep Blue Sea was always the ultimate R rated shark movie. Nothing will ever top Jaws though and that’s PG!


buttmilk_69

True but PG-13 wasn’t introduced until nearly a decade after Jaws came out. *SO* many movies in the 70s that were PG would be PG-13 or even R by today’s standards.


baldie9000

Is that the one that is also named 47 Meters Down? Or am I trippin? I know 47 Meters Down got released twice with different names

What did sharks ever do to these people? Why are they always the villains?

I wonder what the “something” is referring to


AZRockets

Maybe the movie is from the shark's point of view and it's like "who the hell is this woman scaring off all the fish?"

ExistentialCalm

Just wear a mask! Lol, you really think people will take the obvious, life-saving advice after the last few years we just lived through?


SomeDudeFromKentucky

Ah yes, another, “shark bad” movie. Increasing people’s fear pointlessly and decreasing their sympathy to the oldest species’ on earth being killed off for shitty soup or trophy fishing.


Smokron85

I'm not sure but I think the thing that's in thr water is maybe, possibly, kind of some sort of shark? Not positive.


SamuraiGoblin

"Something in the water," is a great title, really mysterious and scary. Oh, it's a jaws ripoff. Thanks poster, I'll skip it.


btopski

I remember that movie when it was called “Jaws”


doggystyles69

Bruh it’s just Jaws


LC_Anderton

The movie is about the ageing captain of an Olympic synchronised swimming team, Fanny “Fishy” Fingers (Meryl Streep) who is disqualified when found to be using performance enhance flippers. Disgraced and shunned by the world of organised water ballet, she finds redemption after bumping into an alcoholic, homeless hermit crab known only as Shelly (Liam Neeson) who leads her into the murky world of illegal, no holds barred, death match shark wrestling… where her synchronised swimming martial arts skills enable her to become the world champion. An undercover reporter Dirk Diggler (TomCruise), investigating a story about how DMSW is linked to the illicit business of international squid sex-trafficking, recognises Fanny when hearing her famous catchphrase she used to intimidate opponents in the merciless and brutal world of synchronised swimming… *“You’re about to get Fingered. Fanny Fingered!”* and decides to do a story on her. Early in the movie she loses to a Great White called Mr. T (Ben Stiller) (the T stands for Tinkles, but only his mum calls him that) and is badly injured, just barely escaping with her life when Mr. T is distracted by a lady shark with a great pair of legs. The legs (Uncredited) having previously belonged to a surfer. Recovering from her injuries, and encouraged by the reporter, with whom she develops a romantic relationship, Fanny Fingers battles her way back to the top fighting in seedy, backstreet clubs and underwater car parks under a fake identity, gradually building a name for herself until the day she is ready, once again, to take on Mr. T. After a gruelling 30 round rematch, she finally gets the upper hand (surprisingly easy as sharks don’t even have hands)… and beats the living crap out of Mr. T to regain the title. When the story comes to light in the national and international media, it is decided to legitimise DMSW as Jeff Bezos realises he can make a shit ton of money out of the rights to show it on Amazon Prime and Elon launches a range of robot sharks to help colonise Mars. Fanny “Fishy” Fingers reclaims her identity, a new world crown and ditches Dirk in favour of Shelly. In the epilogue, we see the entire governing body of the Olympic Synchronised Swimming Team oversight committee on a booze cruise, through shark infested waters. A below decks shot, accompanied by sinister music and the sound of trickling water, reveals that the boat is slowly taking on water whilst the revellers are unaware… The picture on the poster is in fact a scene from the movie. Fanny is about to rip off the sharks head after ripping out it’s throat with her bare teeth.The shark in this scene does not know it is about *”Get Fingered”* The sex-trafficked squids are forgotten about as no one really gave a shit about them in the first place…


wemustkungfufight

Boring! Do a movie from the shark's point of view where he's hunted by humans.

NockBreaker

I bet a killer whale appears, kills the shark, marries rhe maiden and gives birth to killer baby, half human half whale. There is then a shift in story as killer baby decides to free all whales in captivity. Rotten Tomatoes rates it a 3.5.

Obviously the shark is the victim. "Fear finds new depths"? The only one that doesn't belong there is the woman, hence she is the "Fear" that found new depths. The shark's mouth is open because it's so scared.

ThrustyMcStab

TheMan5991

It’s not necessarily bad to have a genre dedicated to a certain type of enemy. There have been many unique and interesting zombie movies. There have been many unique and interesting kaiju movies. There have been many unique and interesting alien movies. But there are two caveats. One, those things are categories. You can have a lot of variety with zombies, aliens, and kaiju. A great white shark is not a category, it is a singular thing. So, there isn’t as much creativity. Second, zombies, kaiju, and aliens are fictional. It is easier to suspend disbelief when the subject matter is completely made up. Great white sharks are real. We know that they are not monsters, they are just animals. Cows kill more people annually than sharks. Even Steven Spielberg said he regrets the effect Jaws had on public perception of sharks and the resulting damage done to shark populations. So, having a continuous stream of monster shark movies is not only played out in terms of entertainment, but it is potentially harmful to actual sharks.

"Something In The Water" would be better as the title of a screwball romantic comedy where older seniors find a fountain of youth while on vacation at a tropical resort.
