I saw it twice in its original run, once during the re-release, own the DVD, and own the soundtrack. It's still a great movie.

The 2600 game, however....

I have not seen ET recently but remember really liking it as a kid.  Conversely I didn't care for Goonies back in the day but watched it recently with my youngest and really enjoyed it.

E.T. is a great movie for it's ability to bring me back to my childhood.  It's also a pretty damn good film.  Perfect? Naa but neither is Star Wars.  By the way, get the Blu-Ray.  It looks amazing and contains a ton of great extras including this audition by Henry Thomas.  At the end you can hear Speilberg say "OK kid you got the job."  Pretty cool.

Of course you guys can't appreciate it as adults... it's a KIDS MOVIE.  I think it holds up rather well and is a damn fine film, but watching it now is kind of like watching the live-action tmnt movies again.  The jokes that I thought were hilarious weren't... some of the cooler characters are actually Jar Jar Binks, ect...

There are very few children's films that kids can be watching 30 years later and still enjoy. 

E.T. is a classic. 


Also you guys like Jurassic Park right?  Well a lot of the stuff done cinematically in JP were first tried out in ET.
