I didn't expect E.T. to win, but I'm glad that most people liked it. Hopefully some people can see it more as a fantasy movie than a sci-fi movie now. Not surprisingly, it was #1 on my list.

I...

I'm rarely home during the day on the weekends, so I won't be online until late Saturday night, (probably after 10 or 11 PM, New York time). I'll have to catch up on the results when I get home.

I never played the E.T. video game, but I've heard that it's terrible. I bought it, but it's still sealed. I played games like Arkanoid and Tetris instead.

But this is one of my newest...

E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982):
I first saw E.T. in the theater in 1982, and it almost immediately became one of my favorite movies. I've always believed that there must be life somewhere else...

I had planned to rewatch E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial last night so I could finish this HoF and send in my list, but sadly the news about Tom Seaver through me for a loop.

I'll rewatch E.T. this...

I'm glad that were able to relive the magic of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.

Many of Spielberg's movies have family and/or parent issues, so it's not surprising that the mother in E.T. isn't a...

It's interesting that you saw the first story as the story of the wronged woman. I saw it as the story of the man who regretted his decision to leave the woman he loved for what he thought would...

It's interesting that there have been several reviews that were about how much someone hated a specific movie, but it's been a different movie for each person. I didn't like Tideland, but it sounds...

I tried rewatching Tideland, but sadly, it didn't change my opinion of the movie. I just can't get past the annoying and disgusting characters to care about anyone in the movie.

I can...

I think Excalibur is the film that I was most disappointed with in this HoF, but that's mainly because it's also the film that I had the highest hopes for too. It just felt like the movie had so...

Thanks for the update. I only have my own nom and a couple of rewatches before finalizing my list. I've been pretty busy the last few days, but I should be done within a week or two.

Don't ever let anyone discourage you from nominating any movies that you want to nominate. The whole point of these HoFs is for people to watch movies that they might not watch on their own. If you...

Again, I'm the opposite. This was the first movie that I ever saw Drew Barrymore in, and I haven't seen her in many other movies over the years, so I'll always think of her as the little girl in...

That's a shame. I was thinking about buying the DVD, but maybe I'll just wait for it to air on TV instead. (It sounds like the commercials might make for some nice breaks in the movie.)

I'm probably going to try to rewatch Tideland before submitting my list to see if I can pick up on the "Alice in Wonderland" connections in the movie.

I might also try to rewatch Kwaidan before...

I'm sorry that you didn't enjoy E.T.. I've noticed that a few people mentioned not being able to connect to the movie. I seem to feel the complete opposite because I connect so well that I forget...

I haven't seen Disney's live action remake of Beauty and the Beast yet, but it's on my watchlist. Is it really that bad? What didn't you like about it?

Add me to the list of people who didn't see Kiki's Delivery Service the same way Siddon saw it.

I just started watching "Stranger Things" recently, but I'm only up to the second episode, so I haven't seen any comparisons to E.T. yet, but now I'm looking forward to watching the rest of the show.

Yeah, that's part of it, but it works both ways. If I know that I usually disagree with someone's reviews a lot, then when they nominate a movie in a HoF, I might subconsciously think I'm going to...

I usually watch it several times every year. I have it on DVD, and I watch it in reruns on TV too. And no matter how many times I've seen it, it never fails to make me cry at the end. :bawling:
