Against all odds, 1975’s Jaws was released and before long, was labeled a certified hit. So it’s safe to say that not firing a forward thinking young director for going over 100 days over budget paid off, and before the term was even uttered, Universal Studios had a franchise on their hands. But what next? Well, it would only seem fit that they would capitalize on it with a sequel. Of course, the studio approached their young wunderkind Steven Spielberg to see if he would like to direct the follow up. But, after the nightmare that was the first one, plus his at the time complete disdain for anything and everything that was sequel related, Spielberg passed. So after a couple other attempts with a couple other directors, the studio settled on TV director Jeannot Szwarc. And despite the film running into many of the same problems the original did, (as well as a very disgruntled Roy Schneider being so angry about having to do this film he was getting in literal fights with Szwarc) Jaws 2 was released in 1978 and was a certified hit. Despite this success, there was one person who it passed over, and that is our very own Adam Bunch. See, Adam has never seen Jaws 2. Until now. Join the Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast as they review Jaws 2, and find out if their love for the first one carries over onto this one.
