20 Things You Didn't Know About Jaws 3D
1. Since Blackfish, It's Undergone A Re-Examination
Blackfish is the stunning, heartbreaking documentary about the treatment of aquatic animals at Sea World. Anyone with an ounce of empathy toward other creatures wound up in tears listening to former trainers and workers discuss the experiences they witnessed while on the job. One particular hard-to-watch segment documents the separation of a mother and her offspring by a continent. Though they obviously couldn't understand the creature, they could intuit the increased, aching moaning of a mother crying out for her lost child.
No one has made an argument that Jaws 3D is a good film, but its place in history solidified after the release of the documentary. It can be viewed as an activist film: nature striking back with brute force when man ignorantly tried to tamper with it. It has a place right next to other natural horror films gone awry like Prophecy, about a giant mutated bear who undergoes its transformation due to a local paper plant.
