And I'm Vincent Cunningham.

Each week on this show, we make sense of what's happening in the culture right now and how we got here.

Let me paint you a picture.

It's June 1975.

Colors are bright.

The pants are bells at the bottom.

School's out.

Damn right.

It's hot.

The height of summer.

What are you going to do?

You're going to go to the movies.

And what are you going to see?

What about a little film called Jaws?

Jaws, in case you haven't heard of it, it was a big hit, okay?

It's often said to be the first modern blockbuster directed by Steven Spielberg, the most commercially successful director in history.

After the success of Jaws, he goes on to make Close Encounters of the Third Kind, E.T., Jurassic Park, the Indiana Jones movies.

The list goes on, and friends, you know it.

Guys, what are some of the hallmarks?
