I just wanted to know how many others love the movie and the ride Jaws!
And I have a question---I heard they removed the giant Jaws replica from in front of the ride. Was this just for refurb or is this a permanent removal?!

My favorite part has always been the JAWS attack right after the boat house, cause people SO don't expect it and it sets off huge fire balls...
AWESOME ! :)

I like this ride. About the Jaws out front going missing, he was down for a refurb and is now back up. No need to worry.

Who doesn't love JAWS, it is an universal classic. I always wish I was the captain of the boat,that would be so fun.

Classic universal studios ride
My all time fav ride
Still scares the hell out of me and I'm 21, even when I am waiting in line with my family I will purposely move around so I end up sitting in the middle
hehehehehehehe

JAWS at night is an amazing experience and truly terrifying in many ways. Everything lights up so well and the harbor feels even more authentic than during the day. The gas dock explosion and the sparks flying from the cable scene look awesome at night.

Yes, he's back. I think they wanted to make him a little less bloody...
If you notice his mouth isn't nearly as gross as it used to be.
Went to American Idol tryouts in Orlando and visited Universal for the day.
Lol, it is my ritual to kiss Jaws on the cheek...since he is my fave ever.
Here is a picture from 2006:

And here are the ones from July 2009! Less bloody mouth.

A trip to Universal isn't complete without a ride on Jaws! A good skipper really helps too. A very fun ride.

This is cheesy, but I always wanted to be a skipper for the Jaws ride! LOL. I practically know the whole script now!

Wow, why did they take the blood away? It looks way cooler and more realistic with it. Boo.

I love Jaws! I remember going on this ride with my brother and freaking out everytime we saw the shark. He kept laughing at me, but what can I say?! Jaws is a terrifying (-ly good) movie!
