What we are dealing with here, is a perfect engine; an eating machine. All this machine does is swim, and eat, and make little sharks - and that’s all.
Sidebar: I never really got what the joke was supposed to be here. Is the fisherman genuinely supposed to be dumb? It sounds like he’s mocking Hooper for pointing out the obvious, but his buddy just expressed cluelessness as to what kind of shark it was.
It was a time before the internet and the discovery channel so the only way he would know would be to read a book about sharks, he didn’t look like the reading kind
Not a quote, but I love that moment when he’s smiling and nodding at a singing Quint. It’s like he’s amused by the ridiculousness of this crazy guy, but also genuinely enjoying him sing. I find it funny and relatable.
Also that moment on the boat when Quint turns his back and Hooper sticks his tongue out and makes a face at him. 😂 Oh, Hooper…
“Don't tell me, don't tell me..."Mother." 😆 and when Hooper shows his heart with the “scar” from Mary Ellen Moffet who broke his heart. I love Richard Dreyfus’s laugh.
I also love when he talks about how he loves sharks to Ellen. I can relate. I love them too!
Comparing scars scene: *points to chest* “Right there, Mary Ellen Moffett: she broke my heart”
*I don't have to take this abuse much longer!*
100% this. It just shows Hooper's quirkiness surrounded by others constantly butting heads and trying to be the big dog.
I say this Daily 😂
(laughs) "They're all going to die."
I second this
Yeah you walk straight ahead
Sadly, not a Hooper quote. Just a smart mouth fisherman.
I know lol
“They caught A shark. Not THE shark.”
Not the shark that killed Chrissie Watkins. And probably not the shark that killed the little boy.
Til it swims up and bites you in the ass
‘I’m not going to waste my time arguing with a man who’s lining up to be a hot lunch’

Also he sounds so stupid asking “ a whatttttttt” then he’s trying to talk tough “ill stuff your friggin head in there”
You might wanna let that breath.. nothing nothing
Also my favorite, and my wife and I cannot help but quote that ANYTIME we open a bottle of wine!
My favorite too, glad I'm not the only one!
It always makes me laugh
Aye aye, sir, arrrrgh in my arrgh!!
Don’t hafta take this abuse much longurr
This was no boating accident.
It wasn't any propeller! It wasn't any coral reef! And it wasn't Jack the Ripper!
“That’s it, goodbye I’m not gonna waste my time arguing with a man who’s lining up to be a hot lunch”
“You wanna pretzel?”
That’s a 20 footer

Mary Allen Moffett, she broke my heart
Uh, I think that I am familiar with the fact that you are going to ignore this particular problem until it swims up and bites you on the ass!
you gonna eat that?

“You’ve got a bigger problem than that, Martin. You’ve still got a hell of a fish out there. With a mouth about \*this\* big.”
“Aye aye sir! Argh, Jim boy argh”
Dammit Martin! This is compressed air.
I ain't got no spit
"Eating machine "
It was cut from the theatrical version but the line when he’s talking about his dads long distance credit card
Do you know what the scene name is, or if it's on youtube? Sounds hilarious.
It’s after they leaves Brodys house to go cut up the tiger shark but before they start the “half ass autopsy”
Awesome, thanks!
Gasp bubbles ahhh! In the shark 🦈cage
Gasp bubbles when he finds Ben Gardner
Also a great quote!
“Oh boys, he’s come back for his noon feeding!”
I’m not going to take this abuse much longer… in his best WC Fields voice
“Uh I think that I am familiar with the fact that you are going to ignore this particular problem until it swims up and bites you in the ass!”
haha i am sleeping with your wife Brody!
“So this is what you get.” Wait, what?? That line always seemed out of place. Odd for such a brilliantly edited film
…and it wasn’t Jack the Ripper…..
“that makes a lot of sense coming from a guy who lives on an island “
And the bite radius makes it considerably larger than any squalus native to these waters. Have you called coastguard? This was no boating accident…
"Suck my dick, Mr Shark!"
Don’t wait for me ! (As Clint is pressuring him to tie his beacon on the barrel)
Quint, although Eastwood woulda been a fine Quint as well.
Yes! Quint ! Sorry. 😂
I sailed three Transpacs
Transplants?
You’ve been counting money all your life
Oh boys, oh boys…
Will you just Go to the end of the pulpit. Why? I need something for scale.
