Alternate Versions
Some of the audio revisions made for the 2002 Special Edition are retained on the 7.1 track for the 30th Anniversary Blu-ray (which is otherwise the original 1982 cut). Most notably, the first medical scene (just after the face of Keys is revealed for the first time) was significantly remixed with a more natural ambience and different incidental dialogue from the doctors. The original, more atmospheric sound design for the scene can be heard on the Blu-ray's 2.0 track. See more »
Today when I was at my house alone, looking through my DVDs, trying to figure out which movie I should see for entertainment. I saw E.T and I hadn't seen it for nearly 3-4 years ago. I seen the film ever since I was 4 years old, so I wondering if I would still enjoy it when I'm an adult. As I was watching the film, I had this rush of nostalgia running through me, I was remembering the times when I was a kid with my family. The film didn't at all feel to childish to me, I was actually having a lot of fun, like I used to when I was a kid. This film has not aged at all since 30 years ago. This film is a truly timeless film, and will always be remembered. This is one of the best Steven Spielberg films. (And that is no easy task) A Timeless Classic 10/10
