I think Jaws would work, but I don't think it'll end up being that one. Personally, I liked your version.

Thanks. I still think that my version pretty much encapsulates the plot.

When's the last time you saw Jaws? Perhaps you are thinking of its sequels.

It had sequels? Oh Gawd. I never knew.
I don't think I ever saw ALL of Jaws. And what I have seen mus have been years ago at least. It never really personally interested me all that much.
Come to think of, is Jaws even really Sci-Fi? It's more like horror, I would think. Unless they really go into an explanation of it's size at some point.

Well, the shark behaves nothing like real sharks do, so there's your fiction right there.

As for the science, uhh...

Completely off topic...IJD, is that a Star Destroyer made of bubbles?

I believe it is a Star Destroyer made of Euros.

I wondered about that, too. Not about the bubbles -- just what it was, in general (or is it something to do with Euros? I just don't know... )

Never saw any Jaws movie. I don't feel that it's necessary.
