Quint will live on in our hearts, as long as we maintain a healthy love of shark killing, and an unhealthy hubris towards the dangers facing us. Quint does survive, Andy.

We should have some mint juleps, enslave some African people, and watch it together! It'll be fun! And I think I saw one of the crappy Jaws sequels when I was a kid - probably :the Revenge. Funny anecdote: Michael Caine supposedly said "I never did see Jaws: the Revenge, but I did see the house it built." Always loved that quote.

This made me want to watch Jaws again. I watched it back when I was a kid several times (it was always one of my favorites) and then watched every single awful Jaws sequel. I think I even watched Jaws 3 and Jaws: The Revenge multiple times because they were part of my library's small VHS selection. Why, oh WHY!!! I also remember my mom saying that she lived in California when Jaws came out and it actually had a huge impact on beach attendance that summer.

I haven't seen Jaws, and you mentioned it in here but everyone talks about how amazing A Clockwork Orange Is. Oh, and Casablanca, which is apparently the greatest movie ever. I'm sure there are manyy other movies I haven't seen that you'll be making me watch in the future, too:) there*

Get on that shit, especially if you've been able to avoid spoilers for the past 50 years. And sadly, I have to admit that I've seen Dirty Dancing. And Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights. And the stage show of Dirty Dancing. I blame my wife. I haven't seen Mad Mad World, either, but it's pretty low on my list of movies I feel a strong need to see, especially when their are classic comedies I haven't seen like Animal Crackers or Bringing Up Baby. Maybe some day. No Psycho? Get on that shit, especially if you’ve been able to avoid spoilers for the past 50 years.
