Patton Oswalt created a JAWS quiz on his MySpace blog and it was so hard, it stumped THE WRITER OF JAWS. He received fan mail from said writer, Carl Gottlieb, to that effect:

Hello, Patton… First of all, I wrote the f–kin' thing and I was stumped by most of the questions, and the answers that I knew I had to research… So, that is an awesome trivia quiz, which I had to tell you personally…To know that you're self-confessed Jaws Geek is good news… [etc.] Cordially, Carl Gottlieb

Think you can swim in Patton's ocean (of trivia) (about JAWS) (the movie)? Click here to find out.

Here we go:

1. Name the character who claims to have been bitten by a vampire.
2. How many years has the annual Regatta been held in Amity?
3. Which character lives in Hartford, attends Trinity College, and has parents who live in Greenwich?
4. What production company gets its name from the movie JAWS?
5. What nursery rhyme gets sung in the film?
6. What's the name of the Amity Harbor Master?
7. Hooper brings a bottle of red and a bottle of white wine to Brody's house. Which color does Brody drink at the house, and which color does he drink on Hooper's boat?
8. What flavor ice cream does Michael Brody ask for?
9. According to Quint, how many times has he been married?
10. What extraterrestial, atmospheric invader is caught twice on film during JAWS?

RIDICULOUS, NO-LIFE BONUS QUESTION:
Okay, if this makes any sense…

Quint wounds the shark with a SPECIFIC weapon that would be made famous by a movie character four years after the release of JAWS.

A crucial character in JAWS is played by an actor with the SAME last name as the fictional movie character who would make Quint's weapon famous.

Name the:

Weapon
Movie character
Actor

Stumped? (Get it? because if a shark bites your leg it's a stump… No? Okay.)
