When are they going to stop making movies demonizing sharks, ffs?

WHY ARE THEY MAKING MORE MOVIES TO MAKE PEOPLE SCARED OF SHARKS??? WHY!!
More people a year die from DROWNING than shark bites.
So go on and make a movie about that.
Also, shark diving cages have buoys on them so they DON’T sink.
AND ALSO, those girls would have died on the way down 156 ft (47 meters) to the “bottom” cause they weren’t descending properly, controlling their buoyancy or equalize their ears. Human bodies cannot take that pressure so quickly.
UGGGH STOP MAKING SHARK MOVIES Unless its nice shark movies showing how cute they are. They’re not evil things looking to eat humans. There are 375 (to date) know species of sharks and only about a dozen are considered particularly dangerous. The 3 breeds responsible for most reports are tiger, bull and great whites. Bull sharks and tiger sharks are aggressive breeds. Great whites aren’t but they’re just so massive, a bite from them is not the same it would be from a smaller shark. With that, shark bites are usually never fatal. Most shark bites are just them checking out the scene cause they don’t have hands and when they realize you’re not food, they leave! Never blame the shark for biting you, you are in the water, their home. It’s the risk you’re willingly taking getting in. If you’re scared of getting bite by a shark, don’t get in the water! Just like if you were scared of any other animal! You don’t get in a place that says there are snakes when you’re scared of snakes! Snakes live there, you don’t. So don’t go in if you don’t want to risk seeing or being bitten by a snake. Same with sharks and the ocean.
Sure, they’re maybe a hundred or so shark bite incidences a year but humans, with commercial fishing alone, kill hundreds of millions of sharks a year and that’s just commercial fishing!!!
Sharks vital to ecosystem! Stop making people fear them and want them dead! We need them.

47 Meters Down is a new horror movie coming out June 16th. The movie follows two sisters who go cage diving with Great White sharks, only to have the cage break. The two sisters end up on the ocean floor and get surrounded by “man-eating” and “scary” Great Whites.
As the Great White population continues to plummet, this movie will only contribute to the fear of Great Whites and other shark species, similar to how Jaws did. Please consider avoiding this movie and speaking out about how it will impact the population of Great Whites and other sharks.
hi! sorry to bother you, but with 47 Meters Down coming out I’ve been looking for more shark-positive movies and tv shows. would you guys have any suggestions? cheers!
Sharkwater is my top suggestion! A powerful, emotional and beautiful documentary that’s available on Netflix. Be warned some scenes are extremely graphic. (this one made me cry pretty hard as well)
I don’t think I’ve ever come across any others, unfortunately. SharkSider has a list of documentaries here, but I’ve never watched them and can’t give a word about them.
You can also find some pretty cool short films on Vimeo!
If anyone has any other shark positive movies or tv shows please share them!
So I thought y’all would like this too
This great white comes to the jersey shore every year and this year they named her and have been tracking her hella so this is Mary Lee and she decided to show herself under this rainbow for pride month
A true gay icon
“It’s just a movie!!!!”
It’s almost like movies, whether they should or not, help people form opinions.
Especially when we already know what the effect of Jaws was to sharks.
“Just a movie” sure.
“As long as the public’s informed”
The public is as informed in the actual state of sharks as a pile of shit. The movie will only reinforce what they already think about sharks.
