I thank you and Kong thanks you (even though he's now been mummified AND Bar-b-qued!)

All of Kong's parts were sold to Sizzler. And you wonder why their meat is so tough.
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Yeah, with all the pounding from the fights and stuff you'd think it'd be tender. It just shows that the Sizzler can ruin anything!hobie16 wrote:All of Kong's parts were sold to Sizzler. And you wonder why their meat is so tough.

I thought Bruce was the shark from Nemo. At least that is what my Bruce the Shark tee shirt says that I bought at The Seas pavilion!felinefan wrote:I forgot--what about Bruce the Shark from Jaws?

I could be wrong (it HAS happened before), but I think they called the mechanical shark Bruce while filming the movies.Princess Susi wrote:I thought Bruce was the shark from Nemo. At least that is what my Bruce the Shark tee shirt says that I bought at The Seas pavilion!

You are correct. I always thought that the shark named Bruce in Nemo was an omage to the "JAWS" shark!ktulu wrote:I could be wrong (it HAS happened before), but I think they called the mechanical shark Bruce while filming the movies.

Re: Universal Hollywood Back Lot on fire!
Story is, when filming began on Jaws the mechanical shark was a bit of a nightmare (thus the reason it isn't actually IN the movie very much). When Spielberg saw it for the first time, he said it reminded him of his lawyer, and thus the shark was named Bruce. Bruce the shark in Nemo was both an homage to those that knew the story about Bruce, the shark in Jaws, and a play on the joke that all men in Australia are named Bruce.
