Naturally, it kicks off with 50th anniversary celebrations of the one that started it all, Steven Spielberg’s iconic Jaws. Events include Alamo Drafthouse’s fan favorite Movie Parties, the return of the fan-favorite Jaws on the Water event, and a once-in-a-lifetime Rolling Roadshow screening in Martha’s Vineyard with live orchestral accompaniment
It’s been 50 years since Jaws first terrorized audiences, and at New York Toy Fair 2025, some of the biggest names in collectibles, toys, and floatations are making sure the Great White legend lives on! With NECA’s ultra-detailed figures, BigMouth Inc.’s thrilling pool floats, and Bandai’s immersive bath bomb experience, Jaws fans have plenty of ways to celebrate 50 years of shark-infested fun.
I’m a bit of an odd duck. When I really love an older movie, I prefer to not own it, as this provides me the opportunity to run into it accidentally whilst flipping through channels some random day. It’s the most excellent of surprises. Occasionally, there is that rare instance when film makers put forth a Herculean effort to create the perfect Blu-ray transfer which then gets my attention…but a dilemma still exists. I am so used to watching the “safe for TV” version of a film, it becomes burned into my brain and the theatrical version is long forgotten. Such is the case with Jaws, a film with numerous scenes extended in the TV version; one of which has become my favorite.
Today is the birthday of Robert Shaw AKA Quint from Jaws, so for the remainder of the day, any time someone asks you something, be sure to answer them in a gruff tone and don't exactly answer the question as much as threaten them and throw out a sexual innuendo in the same breathe. It will be so much fun.
