E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/66/E_t_the_extra_terrestrial_ver3.jpg Dir: Steven Spielberg Genre: Science Fiction Year: 1982 This is probably the movie everyone thinks of when they think of Spielberg and the 1980s. But for me, what E.T. represents the indescribable "movie magic" feeling that we seldom have seen since the advent of CGI. E.T. is more than just an iconic representation of a bygone era of filmmaking. It's actually still a genuinely fantastic movie and basically the gold standard of pacing. There's a way that Spielberg builds up to the final bike chase that works on an almost primitive level, making you want to stand up and applaud as we see the proto-Amblin logo pop on screen. Gives even cynics like me chills! --- "A more mature answer than I expected."~ Jakyl25 "Sephy's point is right."~ Inviso ... Copied to Clipboard! |
