Back to the Everything Bartender

1982 Film By Steven Spielberg, produced by Kathleen Kennedy. Considered to be one of his best.

Tagline (IMDB):He is afraid. He is alone. He is three million light years from home.

A few facts about ET:

• The game being played in the beginning of E.T. is none other than Dungeons and Dragons (where they send Elliot, the kid. out to get stuff).
• The girl sibling in the movie is played by none other than a very young, yet still quite adoreable Drew Barrymore. Both Drew Barrymore and costar Erika Elaniak would later pose for Playboy.
• Harrion Ford's wife, Melissa Mathison, the screenwriter, was also cast to play the nurse, and Harrison was to play the school principle. Those scenes got cut when they felt they were not up to par, and overall too distracting.
• E.T. put out in 1982, was the largest grossing film (at $400 million) for many years until being beaten by Titanic, Star Wars (after two releases), and The Phantom Menace.
• ET won many Oscars including, Best Original Musical Score, Best Visual Effects, Best Sound Effects Editing, and Best Sound.
• Original VHS casettes were molded in green plastic as to make video pirating more difficult.
• Speilberg screened the film in person for President Reagan.
• The E.T. video game for Atari is considered one of the biggest video game flops in all of history
• M&Ms were supposed to be ET's original food, but Mars pulled their support when they thought it would be a flop. Resse's pieces did amazingly well that year, due to the plug from the movie.
• E.T. had several working titles (pre-production): A Boy's Life, E.T. and Me, and Night Skies

ET: The Video Game

Title: E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial

Developer/Publisher: Atari
Availabilty: We'll get to that. Try finding a ROM if you really feel a need for pain.

The Skinny: "E.T." is notorious for being what many believe to be the worst game ever. You play as Elliot, the boy from the film "E.T." in a quest to go into craters lining the ground to find pieces for... whatever. Along for the ride is E.T., the little alien who is graphically represented on the Atari as something somewhat resembling a green penis. In each pit, after looking for pieces of said whatever, in order to escape you must use E.T.'s Neck Stretching Powers™ to leave the pit. This sounds a lot easier than it truly is. E.T. takes about an hour to move halfway up the screen, slowly inching upward toward the top. When he finally stretches his neck to the right length for your escape, you must push the red button at the correct instant or else his slimy little neck will retract in an instant leaving you back where you started. Needless to say, the game is extremely frustrating and sold terribly. In a legendary act of sheer stupidity, more copies of the game were allegedly made than systems to play them on (thanks archiewood). Apparently the president of Atari had to get rid of all of the copies that were not sold so he took them to a dump in New Mexico and had them buried underground. Ouch. This title is only recomended for masochists.
