Also features a brief cameo skit with The Coneheads (Dan Ackroyd, Laraine Newman, and Garrett Morris). This copy, with original commercials intact, was snagged from the now-defunct Aneesh's Retrovision YouTube channel.

Where to begin?????
Let's see...
In 1982, I sat front row center for the very first showing of E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial in my home town. I was instantly hooked, and spent my entire summer at that theater, watching E.T. over 100 times. Between time was spent absorbing one of the greatest movie soundtracks I have ever heard, and still believe that 38 years later! By the time my senior year of high school began, I had purchased & wore out the E.T. soundtrack twice, and was on the verge of doing the same with my 3rd copy. And, although I did know who Sir John Williams was, had never purchased a movie soundtrack before E.T.. But, it didn't take me long to begin collecting any & everything he'd ever written and/or recorded. And as of 9/24/2020, I have actually grabbed hold of everything Sir John Williams.
And, to date, I have nearly 400 viewings of E.T. under my belt. And hopefully even more before I shuffle off this mortal coil. However, I am still disgusted with the 20th anniversary rerelease, with new scenes & all of the "politically correct" editing that was done to that release. And, I simply refuse to watch that version again. Thank God that both versions were on the collectors edition DVD set.
