After Jaws' unprecedented success, Zanuck and Brown would have had fewer qualms about shooting the sequel to the biggest movie of all time on their own terms. Even shutting production down.
But on the first movie, Zanuck and Brown were keen not to let The Sting seem like it was a fluke. Stumbling with a number one best seller property would have been a huge come down. The trouble with the production was bad enough publicity. Shutting down could have really tainted the film. Or worse. No matter how well intentioned it was. As David Brown tells it "If you let them take the film out the camera, you don't know if they'll ever let you put it back in again.
Spielberg himself considered halting production for a while. Concerned that a half baked movie might harm his career. Zanuck and Brown were vehemently against it as it would result in everyone losing whatever confidence they had and the movie perhaps never getting restarted. Which would be especially harmful to everyone's careers.
Ha ha! Who needs convincing? Your own OP is textbook "whataboutism".
You tell me dumbass.

"And some of those on the right are nothing but leftist fakes and impostors pretending to be on the right so they can convince gullible imbeciles of the same nonsense that you regurgitated."
Not before you explain why you felt the need to refute "verification" claims I never cam close to making?
Then why bring it up?
And who said anything about verification? Not me.
I'm talking about the reality TV level of PR management and the right's endless grovelling for parity of esteem.
What "minorities"? The bad guys aren't even Americans in this movie so how can they be a minority? A minority where?
What on earth makes you think I'm pretending to be right?
You don't need to be pretending to be right to point out how utterly and patehtically transparent the motive is behind shit like this. There is not new evidence that refutes any charges brought against participants in Jan 6.
This is nothing but a PR retaliation for what conservative pussies term "propaganda" when the behaviour of the morons in their ranks is exposed on TV. "But whatabout...". Pitiful turd polishing.
Conservatives are now reduced to spending all their times consoling themselves with narratives about how "the left" are just as bad or worse and how the real story is not the attack on the Capitol, but the theory that everybody should pretend it never happened they way they claim that everyone pretends that the "left" never does anything bad and how that hurts conservatives feelings.
You will excuse anyone on the right doing anything bad if you can claim that parity of esteem is not being ensured by "them" in the media.
It is fucking pathetic. The right in the US is basically a reality TV "star" continually battling to see how they can manage good/bad publicity to their net advantage.
And I told you that you didn't need to answer. That we already knew.
Do you not understand the concept or rhetorical questions? Not even ones where the questioner literally tells you an answer is not required?
Answer not required.
Pathetic. A person on the internet wrote some strong objections to your cliched arguments and attitudes so you wish to paint yourself as the victim of hate and hostility.
