E.T. creeps me out
October 8th, 2008
E.T. creeps the shit out of me.
I know he’s supposed to be lovable and all wonderful and adorable but I tell you if that thing was in my back shed it wouldn’t be coming out. I sure as hell wouldn’t be feeding it lollies and trying to coax it into the house. The moment that ball came rolling out of the garden shed or greenhouse (it’s been a long time since I’ve seen E.T.) then it would be a ‘get my baseball bat’ moment.
Alien invaders come to our planet, steal our plants and make our pushbikes fly and this kid invites it in and gives it beer!?!?!
Whole other movie if that was the alien from Alien in the shed. Yup throw a ball at that thing and see how it goes.
I’m just saying is all, Elliot had no idea what this creature wanted and he just assumed it wasn’t going to lay eggs in his chest or probe him in very uncomfortable places. I can think of about twenty aliens that it could have been and it would have turned out pretty unpleasant for Elliot and probably the town.

I could have sworn I saw a fan film with the Aliens alien in ET’s place at some point. That’s a great premise.
That movie was just one big commercial for Reese’s Pieces anyway…

I’d be surprised if there wasn’t one out there - I mean it’s just asking for it!!
Weren’t Reese’s Pieces created for the film?
Should have gone with M&Ms

They wanted to have M&M’s, but the negotiations didn’t pan out, so they had to go to a less popular candy at the time, Reese’s Pieces.

If I came home to find that thing amongst a pile of stuffed toys I’m pretty certain I would turn around light a match and burn the house to the ground… creepy little bugger.

How many times to have to comment before your blog stops calling me stranger? Or is it an observation.
I am totally with you. ET scared the living poo outta me. Freaky fat legless weirdo.

Mmmmm I’m shocked and concerned that QYDJ treats you with such disrespect. When does it call you stranger?? I doesn’t make me approve your comments, maybe it’s only letting them through begrudgenly?
Why did this movie do so well when so many people find him icky!?!?

Dude, it likes me now, has put my details in automatically but just above the comments it says ‘Hi Stranger, leave a comment’
How about ‘Hi Stranger, unless you are Kelley and then day-um girl you are awesome, leave a comment’ that will placate me.
And I think ET did so well cause parents thought it was a kids movie that they could just dump their kids at and go out for margaritas.
Kelleys last blog post..Bathing with a bloggers husband. Not likely.

You’re all too harsh. E.T. is adorable and wouldn’t dream of ripping you to shreds…
Just like wild Koalas

On a episode of Robot Chicken, they had a short sketch which showed that not only was E.T. mentally deficient on his home planet (he’d ride the short bus), but that he was physically much smaller than his fellow aliens as well.
