One of the most successful and best fantasy films of all time

Rating: 10/10 (21 May 2019)

A recent Yahoo article stated that my VHS green laser-stamped copy might be worth $2000? How silly! Dozens of VHS copies are currently on the Internet for under $20! 75 million copies were sold the first year and mine shows only a slight amount of wear. Disc copies, likewise, are under $20. I have an original VHS release which shows the doctors wearing guns, not CGI replaced Walkie-Talkies . A great fantasy with so many terrific performances. Drew Barrymore is the best. E.T. camouflaged in the closet with the other stuffed toys is my favorite scene, or is it flying on a bicycle over the moon, on the final parting ("I'll be right here"). I can't decide. Reese's Pieces were used to follow the trail in the woods and M&M-Mars regrets it to this day. Magical, mild and wonderful to behold. I can't wait to show it to my grand-kids who have never seen it!
Note: Most clam-shell Disney VHS tapes are worth about $20 and some might be worth $100 at the most.
