amazing

Rating: 10/10 (28 June 2002)

This movie changed the business of film making forever. I find it amazing that it is ranked so low by imdb's users. I believe that on its historic impact on the business alone it should be in the top twenty. The only reason I can see it being this low is because Speilberg has kept such a tight reign on the availability of it. It is the least exploited film of all time. Most blockbusters are totally over exposed and he didn't let that happen to E.T. thus if your younger than 21 there is a good possibility that you never saw it.
