Nah. Not really. But a really cool fake trailor of a movie that I hope never does get made. These parodies are fine for a "what if?" scenario, but really, does anyone want to see this classic ruined with a bad sequel? Or a sequel (or God forbid a prequel) of any kind?
A really well-edited faux trailor. I caught parts of "The Siege" with Bruce Willis, I think I saw a bit of "Sudden Impact" and "50 First Dates." I have no idea where they got the footage of the "older Elliot."
Of course there's no way the "E.T." race would ever do this a la "Mars Attacks," right? For one thing, you would scare a whole generation of kids and really disappoint another. I remember the phenomenom Steven Speilberg created with this little guy. Believe me this little guy was everywhere in 1981-82. Lunch boxes, bedsheets, puzzles, story-books, toys, etc. Pretty much all the merchandise George Lucas had with the original STAR WARS. Pretty much.
However, I doubt if anyone would buy it. No one would forgive either Spielberg for reuining a classic or whomever he relinquishes the rights to for destroying the image and memories.
Still, overall a cool job. But...E.T. with fangs? Really?
