Shark Trivia

Did You Know that Sharks are often Popular and Misrepresented in Movies….

.….and have unfortunately shaped the way most people view sharks even though they do not normally reflect the behavior depicted in films? While sharks are apex predators and must be respected in their environments, shark-based horror movies like Jaws have changed the public and scientific perception of sharks.

The highest grossing films in this genre include (numbers adjusted for inflation):

  1. The Meg (2018) - $530M

  2. Jaws (1975) - $471M

  3. Jaws 2 (1978) - $188M

  4. Deep Blue Sea (1999) - $165M

  5. The Shallows (2016) - $119M

  6. Jaws 3D (1983) - $88M

  7. 47 Meters Down (2017) - $63M

  8. Open Water (2003) - $55M

  9. Jaws IV: The Revenge (1987) - $52M

  10. 47 Meters Down: Uncaged (2019) - $48M

A friendly and non-horror, animated shark movie ranks near the top if it had been included. 2004’s Shark Tale earned nearly $367M worldwide.
