Bruce is the great white shark introduced in Pixar's Finding Nemo, released in 2003, where he leads a support group for sharks trying not to eat fish. The character was voiced by Barry Humphries and became one of the film's most quoted figures thanks to his friendly manner. Short greetings from the film later circulated online as reaction audio, shared in edits and chat clips. The hello remains popular because it is instantly recognisable, family friendly and useful whenever someone wants a big, cheerful entrance in a very short moment.
