Wasn't there another old TV series with lots of diving. I think it was based in the Great Barrier Reef. Also, don't forget about Aquanauts series.

Amazon has the Jacques Cousteau Odyssey on DVD here:

This is a 6 disc set, I haven't bought it yet. I plan to.

You can also snag old Sea Hunt tapes & DVD's on ebay fairly regularly.

"Shark's Treasure" starring Cornel Wilde.

"The Cave" absolutely s-u-c-k-e-d.

I think The Abyss and Life Aquatic are tops.

There's another Bond movie that I think took place in greece where there's some decent dive sequences. I'll admit that I once tried to rent open water, but the guy working at blockbuster said "dude, that's the worst movie I've ever seen, and I've seen alot of bad ones" so I put it back.

I believe "For Your Eyes Only" is the Bond movie you're refering to...Roger Moore one right? A marine archeologist goes missing and of course has a hot daughter?

Perhaps the most critically acclaimed SCUBA related motion picture is the Jacques Cousteau (co-directed by the great Louis Malle whose career this helped jumpstart) documentary The Silent World. It came out in 1956 and won both the Palme D'Or at Cannes and the Oscar for Best Documentary. Sadly, it is not available on DVD (at least in the US) but the book which the documentary is based on is.

Into the Blue....love Jessica Alba..

HOLLYWOOD cutie Jessica Alba is so hot, she even gets dolphins horny when she goes scuba diving.

The actress discovered the cetacean mammals got aroused by her presence when she was shooting dolphin drama Flipper.

She told MTV: "I don't know if anybody knows this but dolphins get excited, even when you are a human being - and they have long, long... (penises).

"I didn't know this until I was being poked by a few of them, which was very rude.

"I think I learned my lesson. I sort of request female dolphins after that because those are horny little b******s."

Jessica says the dolphin dilemma has become a constant joke with her pals.

She added: "Needless to say my closest friends and family did dolphin squeaking noises for the next five years any time they referred to me or called me or talked to me, which was pretty annoying."

not that it says anything about the movie, but it seems rather funny.
