There is a saying; "the exception proves the rule". Are the prequels the rule (CGI is inherently detrimental to film-making) or the exception (CGI is good). I stand by my belief that nothing is just a tool (read: neutral). Was the wheel just a tool? Is the internet just a tool? Are spell-check programs just a tool? No; they all have an affect on us, good or bad. Maybe CGI is both good and bad and unfortunately, when Lucas gets his hands on it, it is bad. Real bad.

Anyway, I've probably harped on this point long enough for people to be sick of me so I'll comment on the actual topic! It is awesome that Spielberg is not messing around with Jaws; it has a lot of similarities with Star Wars from a historical perspective (first summer blockbuster, lack of advanced FX technology ends up actually benefiting the film etc.).
