June 20th - Jaws

Updated: Feb 13, 2023

Today in 1974, the first blockbuster movie came out in theaters. Jaws is the movie that really launched the shark attack movie genre and put sharks on a lot of people's "things to worry about" lists. I know people talk about this a lot, but I think Jaws made people too afraid of sharks.


Like, sharks are the lions of the ocean, even more than sea lions, which I think are more like weird dogs. A shark is an animal, and one that doesn't particularly go after humans unless they think we are something else. It's easy to see a shark in a movie that's more like a monster than an animal, but you gotta understand in real life all animals are valuable. Even the creepy ones; including sharks, snakes, spiders, and humans.


[EDITOR’S NOTE: Listen to Jaws by Lemon Demon today. Have it stuck in your head for the next week. Jaws is here. Here is Jaws. He is a shark without a cause.]
