The new LEGO Jaws set, available exclusively at the LEGO Store, is an homage to the 1975 horror classic. The original "summer blockbuster," Jaws changed how Hollywood made and marketed movies. It put director Steven Spielberg on the map, and it is a master class in the power of suggestion and good editing; Spielberg, like Hitchcock before him, understood how to "make the audience suffer." The smallest splash of water, along with the perfect sound cue, was enough to spike the audience's anxiety. We don't get a clear look at the shark until halfway through the movie, but its presence dominates the entire film.
LEGO Jaws depicts the moment after the massive reveal, which Chief Brody commemorates with a deadpanned, iconic understatement: "You're gonna need a bigger boat." The set even has the quote printed on the model's black base, along with the movie's title. 0 reply
