So here is a list of links to Jaws Posts that I have some connection to. To begin, we will review all the posts that I have put up on this site in the last five years. To sweeten the deal I’m posting some fan art I found on line that has nothing to do with the post, it just looks cool enough to draw attention to the links.
Video Preview of Jaws Weekend
This is just a short couple of videos in anticipation of the first Fourth of July Post on the movie. It includes what might be the only “Unboxing” video of a Laser Disc.
The original post on my Movie A Day Project on the Summer films of the 1970s.
The only sequel worth bothering to watch. Not a great film but not an embarrassment like the others.

Epic Vlog Link on a Screen of Jaws
You have to have some time to enjoy this. It’s like a podcast with video and a couple of clips thrown in. One of the most fun projects I’ve done for the blog.
Random Crap on the Internet that I shared.
A story about meeting the Screenwriter and getting my book signed. Wow, am I geeking out or what?

You Don’t have to be a Star to Make Jaws Better
OTHER Bloggers
Here is some work on the subject from others that I admire.
The genetic recipient of my disease shares her views on the movie.
The Indianapolis monologue, treated with respect. This is from the only person I know who is a bigger fanatic than I am about the movie. She used the “Indianapolis” monologue as part of her admission essay to U.S.C..
The Following is a Poem by my On line buddy Eric. I love the creativity and the courage it takes to put your voice out there in this form.
Look to the Summer of 1975
All of the ocean will come alive
Look to the water for the great white fin
And you’ll know what sort of trouble you’re in
Look at the shark’s eyes, lifeless and black
Look at the shoreline ahead and know you’ll never get back
Try to swim, try to scream, try to pray
The great beast just won’t go away
Close your eyes and hold your breath
And await the mighty jaws of death
But when you do open your eyes, that’s when you’ll know
It was all on the movie screen, just for show
So thank you Steven and Peter for forty years of great fun
‘Cause when it comes to summer blockbusters, JAWS is still the best one!
From “And So it Begins“ a fellow blogger who is also a film maker, shares some notes on our feature.
I’ve read Alex’s blog for two or three years. He is very sharp and well versed on movie techniques. I liked what he had to say here.
1001 Movies to See Before You Die
Steve Honeywell took on a blogging task that I don’t have the patience to do, he has written a post on every film from the book 1001 Movies to see before you die, and then he has added on top of that, hundreds more because he can’t stop himself. He posts something everyday and is on of my daily stops. The above link will take you to his Jaws post.
Reblog of Fogs Post
This is a link to a link, I reblogged it on my site when Fogs put up the article. Dan Fogarty did a series of posts he titled “Movies Everyone Must See”, this is his work on Jaws and I’m happy to share his efforts with you.
It Rains…you get Wet
Michael from “It Rains… You Get Wet” is a gentleman when it comes to movies. He is thoughtful, polite and honest. I’m happy to say he is a friend. His story includes a period of time when he was sick of this film. He has since recovered.
Digital Bits
Finally, I came across this epic post which has data and interviews galore and may be my new favorite past time. If you read any post other than mine, this should be it.
Happy Clicking everyone.
