Question
Things that happened in July of 1975: Your dad played lawn darts after 4 beers, ARPANET just got going (soon to become the internet), and this movie topped the box office.
There were definitely some bangers that came out that year, but in the middle of a sweltering summer, this one ruled them all. What movie was it?
▼
Correct Answer: Jaws
The answer is: Jaws. Before 1975, the concept of a summer blockbuster didn’t really exist. But when Jaws came on the scene in late June, everything changed forever.Not only did Spielberg’s breakout hit dominate July, but it was also number one all the way through September. Everything that came after has simply been trying to recreate the summer of 1975.Source
