Taxi Driver.

Taxi Driver.

Yes but another close choice.

[mae]

But seems like Jaws will have its way with it...

[Garrell]

Jaws should win it all, it was the 70's!

[amd013]

Jaws should win it all, it was the 70's!

I'll be happy with either Jaws or Star Wars

[Garrell]

true

[DoctorZaius]

I quite agree - the first summer blockbuster.

[Mattrick]

I really need to rewatch Jaws. It's been a long time and I just don't share the love for it so many others do. Went with Taxi Driver.

I could, and have, watched the second half of Jaws so many times I have lost count. The three principles just one-up each other over and over, oh yeah, and there's a shark.

I'm not sure if you have any drive-ins anymore where you are, but if there are, find one this summer and hope it's playing Jaws. There's nothing like watching Jaws outside on a massive screen on a warm summer night.

Or you could find a place that shows Jaws on a large outdoor screen facing a lake and watch it while floating in a tube. Look up Jaws On The Water.

We just put in a pool in the back yard, and I can't wait to put up my big screen, sit in a raft in the pool, and watch Jaws on a warm summer night. With some beers, of course.

I always feel nostalgic when I seem him rip the pull tabs off the cans. Been awhile since they got rid of pull tabs.

A couple years ago we got to watch it at the drive in while vacationing on Cape Cod

[Randall Flagg]

A pool is too safe. You need to be in ocean waters.

[DoctorZaius]

My dream would be to go to the Vineyard for what will surely be a fantastic 50th anniversary celebration.

While it is only a lake, at Jaws on the Water they hire scuba divers to swim around under the people floating on tubes and grab them at random.

[Merlin1958]

I thought they filmed it off of Long Island. No?

[DoctorZaius]

Nope - Amity Island, the setting, is meant to be off of Long Island, but the film itself was shot on Martha's Vineyard.

It's excellent at pool parties!
