I crushed on her so hard. Looking back, it was probably unhealthy. I fell in love with Drew Barrymore when I saw ET as a child. I crushed on her so hard. Looking back, it was probably unhealthy.

Don't even get me started on Greedo... The only part I hate about ET now is how the took away the guns from the federal agents before the bike flight.

If it hadn't been for the Academy's hatred of Spielberg and <em>Ghandi</em>, it would've won them for Best Picture, Directing, Writing, Cinematography, and Film Editing as well. E.T. was a magnificent movie, as indeed are most of Spielberg's. In fact, E.T. is Steven Spielberg's most successful picture to date. When adjusted for ticket price inflation, it is the 4th most successful movie of <strong>all time</strong>, with $870,985,600 worldwide, according to <a href="http://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/adjusted.htm" title="Box Office Mojo: All Time Box Office, Adjusted for Inflation" rel="nofollow">Box Office Mojo</a>.

I mean, you know I love movies (especially from the 80's), but somehow I've just missed it. I feel like I'm one of those weird people who tell me they haven't seen Star Wars. Maybe I can join a support group. I know this is going to sound crazy, but I’ve never seen E.T. from start to finish.
