Some of You Have Not Seen E.T. In a Long Time

and you think it’s just a semi-weird but cult-classic 80s sci-fi movie, and you don’t revisit it, if you ever saw it at all.

But let me help you with that.

That movie is so good.

It’s about a little boy named Elliott who is immature, and one of the worst parts of his particular immaturity is that he only cares about how he feels. At the beginning of the movie he tries to tell his family about the creature he saw in the backyard, but when they don’t react the way he wants them to, he throws uncomfortable facts about his absent father in his mom’s face. She gets upset, and Elliott’s big brother says,

And what does the backyard creature turn out to be? An ALIEN. A word which means both “visitor from another planet” and “completely foreign, outside of your own experience.”

they literally name him “the EXTRA-Terrestrial.” Because that’s what he teaches the little boy—how to feel what other people feel, outside of himself. Instead of just focusing on his own little world and how he feels.

The alien literally has a heart that you can see from the outside of his body.

The alien literally has empathy powers. He makes Elliott feel exactly what he’s feeling—or vice-versa. When he sees a hurt, the alien immediately tries to heal it. When he starts dying, so does Elliott.

The little boy has to learn to communicate, to care about what someone else cares about, and to let go of someone even though it hurts because it’s what’s best for them.

The E in E.T. stands for empathy, go back and WATCH IT.

the movie is shot mostly from a short perspective, so the audience can feel what the kid characters are feeling, just like the kid characters are learning to feel what their loved ones might feel.

E.T.‘s character design is all big eyes and glowing heart—what else would personify “observe other people and feel for them?”—while the bad guys in the movie, the government, come in dressed as astronauts—and you cannot see their faces. You can’t connect with them.

The leader of the government is only shown from the hip down, accompanied by the sounds of jingling keys, until he talks to Elliott about why he wants to study E.T.—then suddenly, because he’s getting down on Elliott’s level and explaining how he feels, he’s the only one who’s face you can actually see, and you realize that the keys were symbolizing how much he wanted to unlock the secrets of the universe all along. But you don’t get to know that until Elliott connects with this character, who is explaining how he feels.

It is set on Halloween. (When everyone wears masks.)

If you haven’t seen this movie in a long time, or ever, and you think it’s just the weird Spielberg Alien Movie, go and watch it. That’s how you make a movie, people

Rewatching E.T: The Extraterrestrial and...

I feel like no one ever thinks about the fact that ET came up with the entire Phone Home plan, including how he was gonna make half the machinery work, while he was stumbling over, blackout drunk. And they are VERY lucky that it panned out the way it did.

To Celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial Movie

I made an E.T Ship for my mother on Christmas day to go along with her BABW E.T plushie and her reaction was hilarious! I’m really glad that she loved it and all the work was worth it in the end.

Plus it pays a tribute to our favorite movie on it’s 40th anniversary!

Anyways Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
