Holy coincidence, Batman!
I was just watching "Mythbusters" debunk a bunch of the stuff in the first Jaws movie.

Fan-fucking-tastic.
The only problem is the pyramid has been topped on the first try.
Way to ruin a bit, Funkman!

Peter go in the coffin, coffin goes in the ground, you go in the ground. Death's in the ground, our death.

What a great movie was JAWS. It really was and still is one of the best movies of all time. <br />Fuck the other parts - whenever it's on - I always watch it.

"Where gonna need a regular sized Coffin" I remember seeing Jaws at the Plainfield Edison drive in. Yes, Drive-In. The line of cars went up the road for about a mile. We used to sneak under the fence to watch the nude scenes in <em>Kentuky Fried Movie. </em>

<p>he had that drink, went off to bed, and was heard singing these last words:</p><p>Farewell and adieu to you fair Spanish ladies / Farewell and adieu you ladies of Spain. / For we received orders for to sail back to Boston / And soon never more will we see you again. <br /></p>

<p>when the family was interviewed they reminisced on how funny Peter had been, a regular barrel of laughs. As a matter of fact they said he was so funny he was like three barrels of laugh...</p>

<p>suggested epitaph:</p><p>Here lies the body of Peter Benchley. Died at the age of a hundred and three. For fifteen years he kept his virginity, not a bad record for this vicinity</p>

I'll bet you it was a heart attack. Doctor kept warning him that all of his unhealthy eating was gonna be a problem he ignored until it swam up and bit him on the ass, but did he listen? Nooooooo....

I don't remember what radio show it was on (it might have even been that shitty Rosenpuke show), but Rob Zombie talked about how he owns that movie on VHS, DVD, laser disc, etc... but if he's flipping channels and sees that it's on, he watches it every time. I'm the same way.</p><p>I saw Jaws in the theatre, when it first came out. It was the day before my family left for the beach. Damn, that messed me up!</p><p>Farewell and adieu to you...
