Deep Blue Sea/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Hey, It's That Guy!:
    • Ronny Cox shows up very briefly in the beginning, where he doesn't even say anything. Presumably the footage was cut.
    • Tony's sister Janice is handling the communications at the research station.
  • Role Association: Serena Stevens and "Bootstrap" Bill Turner create giant, super-smart sharks for Mace Windu's company despite The Punisher's warnings. The Punisher, Det. Stevens and... LL Cool J have to get out after the sharks use Bootstrap as a hammer and kill Diana Skouris.
  • Shout-Out: To Jaws, of course. It opens with the shark's POV, the scene where Susan confronts a shark in the lab is similar to the one with Brody inside the sinking Orca, and two of the sharks are blown (like in the original) and one is electrocuted (like in Jaws 2).
    • Even the way the sharks attack is reminiscent of several Jaws movies. As an example, how the shark tears off the arm of one of the scientists is from Jaws 4, and when the shark crashes against the window is from Jaws 3.
    • Preacher's hiding in the oven looks a lot like a similar scene in Jurassic Park.
  • X Meets Y: Jaws meets Jurassic Park
