Apparently some people think it would be a great idea to make a sequel to <a href="http://www.southflorida.com/news/sfl-jb ... s">E.T.</a>

To answer your questions, kids: no, nothing is sacred anymore.

I never liked E.T. anyway.

Bah, I stopped caring about Hollywood a long time ago.

Seriosuly. Nothing is sacred, and it hasen't been for al ong time. So why care?

The Matrix for instance.

First one was great, I loved it. I still do. Many people have swore off the films because of the second two. In my world, the second two are inconsequential. They don't exist and I don't care if they do. I've stopped caring because I have to otherwise it all goes to shite.

I say let them make a sequel. I won't care, and I won't see it. Problem solved.

I am withholding judgement until AFTER the Narnia movie comes out.

If they butcher C.S. Lewis, THEN they can die.

The only good thing abou this is that it reminds me of an episode of Freakaziod. I hope Spielberg was just humoring her.

I will now start collecting donations to begin production of "Gone With the Wind" as a dark comedy.

I've hated E.T. irrationally pretty much my entire life.

It all comes back to this: when I was a preschooler, we watched E.T. while my mom was in the hospital, and I was sick with the flu or something. I remember finding the title character extremely unpleasant to look at, and partway through the movie, I threw up with such force and vigor that I lost a loose tooth in the process.
Even now, the sight of E.T.'s wrinkled visage me feel vaguely nauseated.

Also, I second that I'm really hoping they do Narnia right, and that as far as I'm concerned the Matrix ended after the first one.

He phoned home so that he could come back with his friends and drink our blood, or use it for fuel, or whatever the hell they did with it.

Just as long as it doesn't delay production of Indiana Jones 4.

It could be worse. E.T. Vs. Predator?

sequals always suck and often times ruin the original.

And who's the obvious victor?

No no no.
They're reimagining the story of E.T.
Picture it: The sun is just rising over a shipping harbor. In the distance a seagull takes flight. Suddenly an explosion! E.T. comes flying through the doors of a warehouse driving a hot red convertable, bullets flying everywhere! Shooting behind him, we see one! Two! Three corrupt DEA agents fall! He drives the car along the edge of the docks, then JUMPS!
THE AUDIENCE WANTS MORE!!!!!
We see Gertie waiting in a powerboat, she catches the falling alien as she revs the boats to full speed.
"Impressive exit you made," she purrs in E.T.'s direction.
"Those honky fuckers shouldn't have stepped to this," is the reply.

Fade to black.

I don't see why not. Interspecial sex is politically correct after all.

And this way they can get all of the original fans, whom watched it in their youth but now have more "mature" tastes, to shell out 8 bucks for this.
