Similarly, I watched snakes on a plane whilst on a plane. You just can’t make a story like that up.
Imagine if they hired a group of scuba divers to swim around and tickle the feet of anybody dangling them in the water… 🤣
When Jaws first came out there’s zero chance anyone would have done this. We we worried about going into swimming pools. lol
Now we need people floating in space watching Alien!
We did this in the big swimming pool when I was in college. It was touted as the campus’s first ever Dive-In Movie. It was a big hit.
Alamo Drafthouse used to do this, travelling road shows. I went to one in the woods near a farm and watched Night of the Living Dead. Didnt see any zombies but got to meet George Romero… so almost.
They are very brave, I would be desperate by now watching this.
Should be the movie piranha
That is fucked up and seems fun.
Time to release one dozen dolphins 🙂
Nope

> Karla Cripps, CNN • Published 7th July 2015
> It may have been 40 years since Steven Spielberg released “Jaws,” but for many of us the haunting two-note intro to its terrifyingly familiar theme song continues to reverberate in our brains every time we go in the water.
Doesn’t matter how many articles are written to remind us that “Jaws” got it all wrong — great white sharks aren’t vicious murderers out to hunt us all down.
> Doesn’t matter how many shark-based horror films are released with far more gore and way more realistic looking sharks.
When it comes to leaving an audience in excruciating suspense, “Jaws” will forever be the master.
Which is why we can’t think of a more terrifying way to watch the famed mechanical shark wage psychological warfare on the residents of Amity Island than what Austin, Texas’s famed Alamo Drafthouse has planned for this weekend: while floating in inner tubes over murky waters.
> The Alamo Drafthouse, famous for its strict “no texting” policy during films, first hosted an outdoor floating “Jaws” screening in 2002.
> This year, in honor of the film’s 40th anniversary, organizers decided to bring the concept back as part of the Drafthouse’s ongoing “Rolling Roadshow” series.
> The second of two outdoor screenings will take place on Saturday, July 11, on a man-made lake at the Texas Ski Ranch, located between Austin and San Antonio.
Judging by the photos of the first event, held on June 27, it looks like a frighteningly awesome time. (See above gallery.)
> The lake has a decent-sized stretch of beach with lounge chairs for those who aren’t comfortable thinking about what could be coming out of those waters beneath them.
> Organizers say the $30 ticket price includes an inner tube but guests are more than welcome to bring their own preferred floating devices.
> There will be plenty of food and drinks for sale on site, as well as satellite bars selling beer.
Perfect for those who want to sing along as the shark hunters bust into a boozy rendition of “Show Me the Way to Go Home” before that buzzkill of a great white crashes the party.
My summer camp used to do this. It was in a pool but there was still something very eerie about floating while watching some of those scenes.
My neck would be fucked after watching a whole movie in that position =/
You’d basically be a prune
This is epic, I would do this. It would add the terror for sure.. having a person in scuba with a shark fin would be great too!!!!
Some dude needs to swim around with a shark fin on their backs
no need to feel ashamed when pissing yourself
I was there. I couldn’t get comfortable in a tube. Was distracted the whole time.
Slight spoiler for a horror book: >!“My heart is a chainsaw” has a really fun scene in pretty much exactly that setting.!<
Lots of warm spots out there.
Hey I have an idea, fuck all that
Would falling into the water and splashing while screaming in pain as a joke be the equivalent to yelling fire in a theater lol?
Craned neck and pruny skin after a movie, just exactly what I was looking for.
Oh hell no! I’d be chafing all night!
