Happy birthday to Bruce! Jaws turns 50 this year and we our love sinking our teeth into the celebrations. We talk Jaws and all the movies that came from it on an aquatic episode of Enjoy Stuff! 50 years ago Steven Spielberg released a movie that would change the landscape of cinema forever. It's a blockbuster episode so take a bite outta cake.   News Back to the Future and Jaws get some fantastic new Hot Wheels cars Videoheaven is a new documentary about one of our favorite hangouts in the 80s; video rental stores Original Blue's Clues host Steve Blum starts a new podcast for adults Mel Brooks has a pilot ready for a Young Frankenstein prequel on FX Andy Weir's novel Project Hail Mary is coming to theaters and we have a trailer   Check out our TeePublic store for some enjoyable swag and all the latest fashion trends What we're Enjoying Shua highly recommends the newest Pixar movie Elio. IT's a touching tale of a boy that desperately wants to be abducted by aliens. Think a cute, modernized version of The Last Starfighter. See it in theaters now. On his way to visit Shua in person, Jay stopped at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It's an exciting museum of some of our favorite performers over the years. Such a great history of how our culture has changed because of music. You can find it in Cleveland, OH.     Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay goes back into space with Vin Diesel in the 2013 film Riddick.

Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU. Enjoy Jaws!  In 1975, seeing a movie was a little more of a laid back experience than it is today. That is, until Jaws was released. Adapted from a novel by Peter Benchley, Steven Spielberg took on the challenge of filming this movie an the actual ocean with a not-actual shark. It was an overnight success and moviegoers lined up around the block to get terrified of going to the beach. Plus, it spawned a ton of sequels and knock-offs. After this, movies changed forever. And so did Spielberg's career. Let's take a look at Jaws and what came after it.    When did you see Jaws? Were you afraid to go into the water afterwards? First person that emails me with the subject line, “We're gonna need a bigger podcast” will get a special mention on the show.  Let us know.

Anniversary to the Future! Marty and Doc celebrate important dates for two of their movies. Join Enjoy Stuff as we compare two different eras of the legendary trilogy.  Back to the Future parts I and III are having birthdays this year. So we look at the parallels of two of our favorite films.    News Kermit the Frog gives an inspirational commencement speech at the University of Maryland Indy is returning to theaters, and this time he's bringing his Dad for Father's day The CIA once used a Star Wars fansite to spy. How do you think it went? (Hint: Many Bothans died)   Check out our TeePublic store for some enjoyable swag and all the latest fashion trends What we're Enjoying Jay found a very eclectic old show from USA's Night Flight 1983 series called “Firesign Theater: Nick Danger, the Case of the Missing Yolk” He describes it as Monty Python meets Police Squad meets Devo. That alone sounds interesting enough to check it out on YouTube. Shua powered through all the Mission: Impossible movies to prepare for the “Final Reckoning” in theaters. It was a fun, spy, Tom-Cruise-Running, full-fueled ride.      Sci-Fi Saturdays This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays explores the mind-bending chronal perils of time travel with Rian Johnson's 2012 Looper. Time travel may not be the career you're looking for. Read his article on RetroZap.com. And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU. Enjoy Time Travel!  Forty years ago we experienced the release of a movie that would become legend. Back to the Future was a tremendous success for Robert Zemeckis, Michael J. Fox, and Christopher Lloyd. (But maybe not Biff, so much) Of course, movie success demands sequels, so a few years later we got more. The trilogy ended in the old west with the third installment which is celebrating 35 years. The BTTF movies have many parallels, so we decided to find a bunch of them and compare the first and third movies. Join in on the fun and see how many you've spotted.   Did you spot any more parallels? What is your experience with Back to the Future?
