In Jaws, Roy Scheider's iconic line, "You're gonna need a bigger boat," was not scripted. This line came from the shock in the face of the monster as Scheider ad-libbed it. It adds some humor to the tense scene and was liked by the director, Steven Spielberg, so it remained in the film. It then became one of the most iconic and quotable lines in the film capturing very aptly Brody's sense of awe and fear, evocative of a movie-goer.
