Paramount was positioning it to be the blockbuster picture of 1977, many industry insiders predicted the film would be as big a box-office hit as Jaws (1975). However, the film did not perform as well as expected and instead Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977) became the biggest blockbuster movie of 1977.
