I'm also a big fan of "The Thing", and agree with you that our fellow member's put down of "ET", is very unfair to a film, which many feel, and I'm among them, is a movie worthy of being called an almost magical film experience. I've heard others describe "ET" as a sort of "Wizard of Oz" for a newer generation, although Mr Spielberg's film obviously isn't a musical, though it's beautiful score by John Williams, is certainly music which will long live in the memories of countless people.I love “The Thing” and I also love “E.T.”. Pablum, it is not, IMHO.
