    When it came out in the cinema I cried.
    When I saw it again on video,.. I cried.
    When it came on TV … yup – I cried again.
    When the special edition came out on DVD – erm…. yes – some more tears…

    ET
    is an absolute CLASSIC — “ET phone home” must be one of the major
    movie quotes. Little Drew Barrymore is so good in this and the BMX bike
    scene, flying in front of the moon is just superb.

    I watche it as a little girl and i was scared of some parts. Ending was
    very sad for me. My children have the New version DVD and they love
    it.
    Those of us who grew up watching the film as children are all
    familiar with the story: an alien botanist from outer space referred to
    as “ET” is stranded on earth and befriended by a 10-year-old boy named
    Elliott . With the help of his brother Michael and sister Gertie , he
    tries to keep him a secret from his mother and all other adults. ET
    explores his earthly surroundings with childlike curiosity
