Special Sub-Topic: The Ultimate "E.T." - Part 1

    Papa Oom Mow Mow. This was sung by the Beach Boys.

What is the name of Elliott's older brother?

    "You stay here Mom, we'll check it out". Mike actually sings this line in the movie.

    coyote. If you look at this scene closely, you will see Tyler is croutching right in front of where ET should be, yet no one sees him.

What time did Elliott wake up the night he first goes outside and sees ET?
    2:01 a.m.. How many 10-year-old children do you know that get up and go outside at 2:01 in the morning when they can't sleep?

Elliot takes ET to his room.
    t. What would you do with an alien? I certainly wouldn't bring it in my house!

How does Elliot get to stay home from school?

How many army men does Elliot show ET in his room?
    6. My personal favorite is Snaggletooth.

Who "eats the shark" when Elliot is showing ET his fish?
    no one. Elliot also shows ET a fake peanut that is a bank.

    Elliot is scared too.. This is the first time you really see ET and Elliot sharing emotions.
