Movie information in first post provided by The Movie Database
E.T. as boring as boring As it is will always have a special place in my heart. I saw it in the movies at Steinway theater in Astoria Queens when it came out. This film will always be a classic and it wasn’t always boring. It’s just that as I aged it became less interesting each time I watched it.
 
My favorite part from that movie was E.T.’s finger. He could pick his nose with that with hardly any effort. Lol
 
I saw E.T. The Extra Terrestrial with my siblings and my mother at the movie theater. I was 13 years old.
 
Worth watching once...I just couldn't care about ET enough though...gave it a 3...
