Just when you thought it was safe to go listen to another podcast...JAWGUST 2 may be officially done - but I am here with one more bonus episode ready to talk about JAWS 2 - just not the movie! I talk about various JAWS 2 related merchandise, some of which came out to coincide with the movie - others of which came out years later.

I also discuss the passing of the great Murray Hamilton - 40 years ago today.

JAWGUST WILL RETURN!!!!

• The Daily Jaws - Jawsmania bites back: The top ten JAWS 2 merchandise
• Fright-Rags.com JAWS and JAWS 2 shirts.
• JAWS 2: The Making of the Hollywood Sequel: Updated and Expanded Edition
• JAWS 2: A Marvel Super Special
• The JAWS 2 Log
• JCMFXStudios on Etsy's awesome JAWS and JAWS 2 figures.

All good things come to an end. And also so do month long podcasts about JAWS 2. Here we are on the final day of JAWGUST 2 and all I can say is - thank you to everyone who reached out, who sent comments, to Eric and Chris for joining the show - and to everyone who listened!!

Of course I go through the final moments of JAWS 2, including all the end credits. I also take one last look back at the entire story of JAWS 2, in the only way I know how.

Plus, I found out that perhaps today, the final day of JAWGUST 2, there might have been a shark attack in Martha's Vineyard? The JAWGUST Gods are cruel sometimes!

Thank you again everyone - JAWGUST 2 has been fun as well. So let's do it again next year, shall we? Let's bring JAWGUST...Into the THIRD DIMENSION!

Happy Sunday, Sharkys! Today is the 2nd last day of JAWGUST 2 and I was ready to see our hero shark finally get a taste of this wicked, villainous teens! And it would have if that disgraced former police chief - the one who showed up in the stolen police boat - hadn't distracted the shark by playing a wicked beat on a giant cable.

Everybody knows sharks have no way of fighting off the power of dance when a good beat is playing. And Martin Brody is the best in the biz.

So while I was ready to see at least one more teenage appetizer, I did find out that one of the kids was supposed to die, but it was a little too graphic so they decided to scrap it. Probably a good idea to avoid that R rating - but terrible for a podcast 48 years later.

And what's worse is there is no footage out there that I know of!

One more day, everybody! ONE. MORE. DAY!

Happy Saturday fellow people who thought it was safe to go back into the water! Today on JAWGUST 2, we do get a shark - but still not a lot happens. This is not a last minute opinion of mine as I show proof that I have been thinking this about these 220 seconds of JAWS 2 since very early this morning.

Happy Friday non-shark fans! Today on JAWGUST 2, we get another episode without any shark! I did however talk about an article from the Daily Jaws, as well as mention actor video messages you can purchase for charity.

Plus, the intro was taken from this Joe Bob Briggs video that I promised I’d share and here is the cast photo I mentioned from VanZandtMilmore.com. I included shots from the movie for reference.

(L to R: G. Thomas Dunlop (Timmy), Martha Swatek (Marge), Cindy Grover (Lucy), Ben Marley (Patrick), Gigi Vorgan (Brooke), Donna Wilkes (Jackie), Joe Alves (Associate Producer, Production Designer, Second Unit Director), Ann Dusenberry (Tina), and Billy Van Zandt (Bob).

Happy Thursday boat fans! Today on JAWGUST 2, we get what might be the most boring 3 minutes and 40 seconds of this movie - or at least of the big conclusion. And to make matters worse - my long time friend, JAWS super fan and fellow podcaster Chris joins the show for the fourteenth time! I have a special guest joining me and THIS is the segment we get to talk about?

I almost want to issue him a refund for the guest-appearance fee he paid me. Almost.

The good news is Chris IS a super fan of JAWS and most definitely not a super fan of JAWS 2. And with guests, we talk about anything that has to do with the movie, not just this boring 220 seconds of film.

And, check out the episode of The Rewatchables that we talk about as well. Let's see if they have the guts to link back to THIS show!

Oh what a happy day it is, JAWS fans! I mean sure, JAWGUST 2 can celebrate the fact that the shark comes through big with not one, but two attacks tonight! Two pretty great ones too. But one - oh one could have been so much better.

And maybe - maybe it's just not as ridiculous as it appears? Here is that paper by Dr. Arthur A. Myrberg Jr. that I discussed.

But, seriously - who's idea was it to delete this scene?

Ahoy, you whirlybirds! Today in JAWGUST 2 it looks like our local teens are about to be rescued. Phew! I thought I was going to need rescuing myself today as my usual computer is giving me issues forcing me jump on my wife's old PC and - hope for the best! This episode was edited and put together a little differently tonight but hopefully it sounds close enough!

Besides the 3 minutes and 40 seconds, I also talk little bit about HBO and I also ponder, what if Roy Schneider didn't have any artistic integrity - and wanted to play Brody...Forever!
