Jaws was released in theaters forty years ago on June 20, 1975, and  the film became a record-devouring monster. It was pictured out as a troubled film by a novice filmmaker, but the movie set up Steven Spielberg on the way to become Hollywood's most bankable director.

Universal Studios were cashing in when Jaws made its way to the box-office competition. Universal Studios made Jaws more realistic in the merchandising of the film. This was never done before that Universal also manufactured the iconic Jaws logo on everything from T-shirts to lunchboxes.

The film designers that made Jaws the smash hit movie to Jaws the smash attraction, conceptualized the high tech signature tram tour in Universal Studios. The public accepted it as a California theme park, like Disneyland, and it exhibited a great deal of effort in its setting,  scenery, and othe shark.

In keeping the tourists terrorized, the Jaws park creative director gave the particular setting an archival material, that felt like behind-the-scenes tour.  The aim was to make the theme park historrical in Hollywood. 

The creative director for Universal Studios Hollywood - John Murdy, explained that the location was called Singapore Lake, before Jaws took over. And it was used for television and movies.

John Murdy stated as he rides the golf cart around the back of the village: "Everything else you see is mimicked from the film," then Murdy keeps saying as he offers a panoramic view of the pond and the trams: "There used to be those candy-striped changing rooms that you see in the movie. They were built for the attraction. The billboards were re-created for the attraction. We repaint them all the time because they take a lot of sun damage."

Steven Spielberg said in the fan-made documentary that the - The Shark Is Still Working:  "I had a good souvenir. I had the Orca [the boat captained by Robert Shaw's Quint] for a while," and Spielberg added:  "I had the Orca shipped back to Universal Studios. We put it on the tour on the backlot."

The final touch of the park as said by John Murdy:  "There used to be a wooden carved fisherman in a boat and his name was George," Murdy added: "It may have been a reference to George Lucas, because obviously Spielberg and Lucas were friends." "We retired George in 2001," "Now it's an Amity police diver. He doesn't have a name."
