When it was released in theaters in 1975, JAWS was a major hit, terrifying audiences and creating an entire generation of aquaphobes, thalassophobes, and submechaniphobes. Steven Spielberg's debut in cinemas was studded with a terrific cast, a chilling story, and horrifying special effects. The sequels? Eh...not so much. But one of them takes place in Sea World! Listen, we know these movies don't even begin to add up to the greatness of the Spielberg classic, but JP and Father Chuck have a special place in their hearts for JAWS 2 and even the unfortunate JAWS 3-D and JAWS 4: How Ellen Brody Got Her Groove Back. What I'm saying is that you won't find another podcasting duo who would talk so fondly of timeless characters like Helicopter Pilot, Cindy & Sandy, and of course Hoagie. So press play and let us tell you why these sequels are fun to watch despite the bad press, and why JP's biggest regret in life was not being the skipper on the ill-fated Jaws ride. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/masters-of-divinity/message
