Episode 289: Jaws with AlexHaha

Forrest, Conan Neutron, Kristina Oakes and Alex @devilsadvocateproductions talk about Steven Spielberg's Jaws!! It's the 50th Anniversary of Jaws which was finally released after multiple delays in June 1975.

Becoming the first movie to ever be delayed at Universal Pictures 100 extra days in production and cost $5 million extra dollars.

Spielberg believed his career was over when he was through filming. Jaws was the first major motion picture actually filmed in the ocean rather than a freshwater lake or a studio tank.

And, with a massive merchandising push from Universal and advertising push, it became the first Summer Blockbuster starting a tradition that still happens today!!
