Spielberg probably got a few easy million$ for signing off on the idea. At this point I have completely given up on Spielberg ever making a truly great film again ( "Saving Private Ryan' being his last great film IMO). I haven't loved anything Spielberg has done in about 20 years, so this commercial doesn't bother me from that standpoint.I’m on Colin’s side. I’m disgusted that E.T. was used in this way, especially for a company as rotten as Comcast. I’m disappointed Spielberg signed off on this idea. He will not do a real sequel but, will let greedy corporations cash in on his creation!?
It tarnishes nothing, and just signifies how powerful, and imaginative his early films (like E.T.) actually were.
