In 1982, a wrinkled, candy-loving demon landed on earth, and soon became one of the most beloved fictional creatures to ever spawn from the silver screen. Yes, this week, we're talking about E.T.: the extremely beloved feature film that proved Steven Spielberg could basically make any kind of movie—and make it a hit. And, of course, there's a little Atari 2600 game worth discussing as well; it's indicative of what caused the video game crash, but not entirely to blame. So pound some Coors just like our friendly alien pal taught us, and get ready for Bob Mackey, Henry Gilbert, and Diamond Feit to explore the world of a terrestrial who's very extra.
