Scuba Movies

[Kydonia]

Fools Gold. They actually did few of the basic scuba skills.

Like when he throws his tank (attached to his BC) into the water right before diving ?

lol

yes, agree, funny cute film. And Kate Hudson as a dive wife ?

I was watching For Your Eyes Only last night, there are some scuba scenes in it. Pretty good, but in one scene, the Bond girl (from Greece) took her reg out of her mouth, removed her tank (no BC), at the bottom. Bond was next to her with full wet suit, tank and reg. He kept his, and they both ascended. Looked like maybe 20 feet deep,hard to tell though. For the life of me, I couldn't figure out why she did that. That was when 007 was silly, IMO.

Into the Blue, The Abyss (it got stupid at the end, though)

Let's see...breathing for like 30 minutes off a pen-sized tank...emerging from a full wet suit with a perfectly pressed tuxedo underneath...the Bond movies were always a bit silly, but their take on diving has always been far-fetched

Finding Nemo

I can't pick a favorite. It's between:

The Abyss - I jumped on the computer after seeing it looking for information on bioluminescence and hyperoxygenated perfluorocarbons.

The Deep - Jacqueline Bisset + white t-shirt = giggity

The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou...loved the Jaguar shark!

The Cave.

It has two of my favorite lines ever in it.

"What's the number?"
"One in fourteen."
"One in fourteen, what's that?"
"One in fourteen cave divers die in caves each year."

Classic.

The other line (the dive team is trapped in a cave and some of them want to wait for a rescue party).

"All the best people in the world to rescue us are already here."

Great line!

Now where can I get that pen size 007 bailout bottle.

Anyone seen "The Cave"? The movie is pretty awful, but the opening cave dive scene (about 15 minutes into the movie) is pretty cool....

And does Planet Earth count?

Finding Nemo

Which has demonized SCUBA divers to little kids much as Disney did a hatchet job on hunters.

The Deep - Jacqueline Bisset + white t-shirt = giggity

I just did a search on netflix and clam chowder for the scuba divers soul came up.
