For some reason I'm still unclear about, I remember I had a fascination with Jaws when I was a kid.
I saw "Jaws" on its first day of release. There were long lines waiting to get into the theater and my ex and I were getting caught up in the excitement of the moment as everyone was gabbing about the media frenzy and the pre-movie hoopla. We got inside, took our seats and waited for the movie to start. Right in front of us was a mother with three young children.... BIG MISTAKE. All through the first few minutes of the film one of the kids kept asking, "Mommy, mommy, when are we gonna see the whale"?? Well, when the shark is finally shown the kid got scared shitless and started crying REALLY LOUDLY. The audience started yelling for the mother to take the kid outside (hey, it was a Brooklyn audience).
