Out of all the movies in this episode, the most relevant is Jaws, the first summer blockbuster. 2 years later, Star Wars have come out and cemented that trend, kickstarting a new era for big-budget spectacle.
The Five Fingers of Death was actually King Boxer. Notable for the music being used for Kill Bill. It’s a shame they’ve seen the dubbed version.
