Jaws
The middle rounds aren't kind to Jaws. But put it in a final, and it becomes one of the tougher matchups on the platform. At 47% overall, it's deceptive. The film that invented the summer blockbuster still carries a primal charge fifty years later. On a ballot, it benefits from being both a piece of cinema history and a genuinely great time at the movies.
Synopsis
When the seaside community of Amity finds itself under attack by a dangerous great white shark, the town's chief of police, a young marine biologist, and a grizzled shark hunter embark on a desperate quest to kill the beast before it strikes again.
49% opening, 37% semis, 63% finals. The middle-round dip filters out the undecided — what's left in the final is concentrated conviction.
Taxi Driver at 51% is as close to a dead heat as the platform produces. Every vote matters in this one. The extremes tell a clear story — 75% against E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial at one end, 0% against Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade at the other.
Spielberg vs. Scorsese is Jaws's tournament to lose. The final against Saving Private Ryan at 64% is competitive but the outcome is consistent.
Steven Spielberg's 11 films span a wide range: Raiders of the Lost Ark at 68% to E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial at 40%. Jaws sits at #6.
#6 of 8 in Spielberg vs. Scorsese.
