"Regarded as the first blockbuster movie, it was produced by a renegade filmmaker who came up with the bold new idea to release the picture simultaneously in theaters across the country."

Not Jaws (which was the first summer blockbuster). I like the meme, though.

Clue: the inventor of the blockbuster not only produced the first movie, he also starred in it.

Ding Ding! Tom Laughlin created the blockbuster strategy that would become the standard distribution technique for the industry. Jaws took the method to another level as the first summer blockbuster, making the term "blockbuster" synonymous with big opening day money.

You have the board.
