[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 331362, member: 23"] Same here, DFF. You know summer is here when the [I]Jaws[/I] thread picks up once more. :cool: That's great. I love hearing about people's journeys with certain films and film series, and I'm glad you did end up discovering [I]Jaws[/I] in all its greatness. Can you remember what you thought of the third and fourth films the first time you saw them? You were in a really unusual position of not comparing them directly with the original on that first watch. Like you, I'm too young to have watched [I]Jaws[/I] when it was first released. I watched its British TV debut in October 1981 and it was the first film to terrify me. I've been fascinated/obsessed with it ever since. That first broadcast was watched by over half the country and is still the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_most_watched_television_broadcasts_in_the_United_Kingdom#Most_watched_films']second most watched film in British TV history[/URL], so I was part of something special.
