"Close Encounters"................................by a lot. "E.T." has not aged very well as a movie. It's best scenes essentially are the ones that ET is NOT in.
ET was never among my favorites, even as a kid. I remember loving Raiders as a kid, and that hadn't changed in adulthood. Also loved Superman as a kid. But was never huge on ET.
Thats because E.T. was fluffy, universal kiddie-shit that also appealed to dogshit-for-brains parents. Spielberg was annoyingly brilliant at picking the most cuntish children for his movies and this wasno exception. If he´d had any balls, Spielberg would have had those kids encounter the Martians from the 1953s, War Of The Worlds. I vividly remember the first-ever time I watched it - at home, VHS video with a double-header that Id rented out - that other movie was Apocalypse Now. The latter completely blew me away, left a lasting impression and also gave way to me urinating on the E.T. cassette tape out of pure disgust that Id bothered (it was actually a pirated-VHS tape)
CE3K is heads and shoulders superior to E.T. on every level. Most of the people that loved E.T. were girls & women (and gays). I dunno why, but most hetero males didn't went bananas for this film.
Panchy was like 47 when ET came out, masturbating in the darkened theater aroused by the scent of children Anybody that was little when it came out that says they didn't love it is an absolute liar ... might as well say "I was a bit too sophisticated for Cookie Monster"
My parents took me to see E.T. at the movie theater when I was 11 years old. I WAS Elliott. I thought it was fucking great. Had great memories of it. I took my own daughter to a re-release of it 25 years later, and remember being pretty disappointed compared to my memory of it. I'm a self-absorbed piece of shit though, so I have no memory of whether my daughter was as enthralled as I was at that age.
Only by Drew Barrymore... I was 22 and I liked it, but didn't loved it. Just like I like 'Avatar' but don't love it.
Its absolutely the reason Avatar was as successful as it was: word-of-mouth based upon amazing 3D-visuals ans CGI. ¨Hey man, check out that Avatar movie - it LOOKS amazing!!¨ And of course, human-nature being what it is (shit), everyone flocks like sheep to see it. I guarantee you hardly any twat can remember anything about the plot, the characters, who was even in the fucking movie let alone memorable scenes or dialog. A movie that appeals solely, and totally, to wankers. It´s success is a valid reason why Genocide should be allowed.
I don't think Avatar has any fans besides Panchy and Sly. It's a blatant rip off of Pocahontas, Dances with Wolves, and Fern Gully.
Avatar was absolutely crap The script was something a precocious 5th grader would concoct ... one exhausted cliche after another
Yeah but you are talking about one of whom is a paedophile and the other who'd never heard of Network.
