The Jaws Obsession

Minute 13 watching Jaws in the Expanded Jaws Universe (EJU). Utilizing prequel novel, The Book of Quint, we enhance our understanding of the film. 

Mayor Vaughn is proven to be the best political tactician in cinema history with his epic gaslighting technique - he successfully gaslights Brody AND the audience. 

Deleted Scenes are placed under a microscope to better understand Brody's position at the end of the ferry scene. 

Alex and Mrs. Kintner and what is the significance of pruned fingers.

Minute 12 watching Jaws in the Expanded Jaws Universe (EJU). Utilizing prequel novel, The Book of Quint, we enhance our understanding of the film. 

Mayor Vaughn meets with Brody on the Amity Harbor Ferry. We put an end to the myth of the bumbling Jaws mayor and prove he is a calculated and experienced political opponent. Going line by line, we see Mayor Vaughn and reporter Harry Meadows are revealing more to the story. With the Book of Quint, it is very clear what is going on.

"It's happened before." Did Harry Meadows, played by Carl Gottlieb, give us the biggest hint of Amity Island History in Jaws?

A Jaws Universe Timeline update. We isolate down to the minute when these events are happening.

A new documentary is in the making, and Host Ryan Dacko is on the advisory circle: Jaws Explored (www.jawsexplored.com) will be a documentary unlike any other Jaws documentary made over the years. CreatorVC is the production company behind Jaws Explored and we introduce the Jaws Obsession to them.

Take the survey by June 15th at www.jawsexplored.com

Minute 11 watching Jaws in the Expanded Jaws Universe (EJU). Utilizing prequel novel, The Book of Quint, we enhance our understanding of the film. 

New characters are introduced in this minute which will have a deep impact on the EJU. 

Jeff Voorhees, who played Alex Kintner, makes an appearance to provide the proof that Alex K is in the marching parade and we found him.

The Searle brothers, Stephen and Jonathan, changed Jaws forever after getting turned down to play the Brody Boys. There is a narrative building in the background, and after 3 years of research it's time to present the details.

100 Episodes of Jaws Obsession presents a new mountain to climb.

The great Jaws Retcon of 2027 has started.

We have a path forward to restore the legacy of Jaws with an expanded Jaws universe. The Book of Quint and the Jaws Obsession research has opened the door to something amazing.

Steven Spielberg will turn 80 in December 2026, and for 2027, on the 40th anniversary of the studio killing the Jaws franchise with a failed 4th film in 1987, we all can present him with this gift--a new book. A book to go back in time and take care of Jaws with the characters we all love.  

Our trip to Los Angeles and the Jaws Exhibition at the Academy of Motion Pictures Museum provides inspiration and context into why Jaws Retcon 2027 is more important than ever.

Jaws turned 50 and we can't let this moment go into history by sitting on our hands. "Gotta get to work!" - Quint

Minute 10 watching Jaws in the Expanded Jaws Universe (EJU). Utilizing prequel novel, The Book of Quint, we enhance our understanding of the film. 

Brody gives us a new resolve in his march through town, and we are shown new details backing up our conclusions from Episode 98. Details in the background show Mayor Vaughn's influence, and a very interesting hardware store display foreshadows Quint.

Was the paint brush jar crash a mistake or intentional? Let us know!
