Well, with the exception of Jaws, I wasn't really pointing to those three movies as ones that made an impact on me and my sphere, but rather on the world at large. You could not escape news stories about The Exorcist, or the public craze over Star Wars.
I think Jaws was more of a thing in my sphere because I lived in a beach town - - where the public reluctance to go on the water was keenly felt and palpable.
I don't think movies need be controversial to make a big public splash. ET was another one, as CP pointed out, that seemed to have a big effect on the public at large. If Pulp Fiction had a similar effect, I completely missed it.
