A proposito di questo titolo

You know him as Randy, the bundled-up little brother from the holiday classic A Christmas Story — but Ian Petrella’s story didn’t end with “You’ll shoot your eye out.”

In Part 2, Ian joins Tom and D to dive deeper into his evolution from beloved child actor to documentary filmmaker and producer. The conversation centers on The Shark That Roared, a new documentary executive produced by Kevin Smith, exploring the unlikely second life of Jaws: The Revenge — once a notorious box-office flop, now a full-blown cult classic.

Timed to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Jaws: The Revenge, the film examines how fandom, nostalgia, and pop-culture reevaluation can completely rewrite a movie’s legacy. Ian breaks down how the project came together, why this film deserved a reassessment, and what it’s like shepherding a passion project with deep roots in cinema history.

Expect Hollywood war stories, cult-movie love, and a thoughtful look at how time can turn “failure” into fan obsession.

🦈 The Shark That Roared — Coming Summer 2027

Part nostalgia, part film history, and fully on-brand Tom and D.
