    Not that Nelson's character doesn't have his bad points but I think he's one of the least hypocritical of the characters. As they say in the movie, he wouldn't care what his friends had to say if they saw him hanging out with Anthony Michael Hall's character while Molly Ringwald and Emilio...

    My experience with E.T. was the opposite. I saw it as a kid and probably expected to see lightsabers so I didn't really care for it but seeing it as an adult (starting with DVD), I absolutely fell in love with it. I've grown soft in my old age. :)
