OneWayFilms · 06-09-2012, 08:04 PM

I am so looking forward to seeing this in HD. I deliberately held off re watching this on DVD so it will feel fresh all over again on bluray.

Snowmaker · 06-09-2012, 08:25 PM

The price jumped up like $7 since a couple days ago. I locked it in at $23.xx ($24.49) when it was in my gold box a couple days ago, now its $31.48.

Can't wait to get this. It will be a birthday gift I buy for myself.

I will hold onto my copy of the 2-disc DVD, even though I didn't enjoy the re-release as much as the original.

What the frick? It's the same cover-art... Even worse with the logos...
Also, I can't see anything else but the mock-up of the front, so what does the DigiBook actually look like?

arcadeforest · 06-10-2012, 06:55 PM

Was at Universal Studios yesterday with my kids and we rode th ET ride. They have not seen the film (and I havn't seen it since it was in the theater) so I'll pick this up.

MPeriolat · 06-10-2012, 09:00 PM

I'm holding, waiting to see if there will be a digibook or any other box of goodies. But it's a day one for me once that is clear.

no its not the same.. the background is the forrest. its also missing the big ET finger touching a baby hand. . thats what kills the us/uk covers for me...looks stupid.

as for the logos...im sure most of those are removable..

Baby-hand? Have you séén the movie?... Besides, it's one of the most iconic images in film-history, it's been around on posters and covers forever.
Doesn't bother me anyway. It's not like they Photoshopped it up and Blu'd it up or whatever, like they often do.

And I have my doubts about the logos. I'm just thinking the mockup is not the final artwork though.

yes i have seen the movie.... thats what makes the baby hand even stupider...
personally i think eT and elliot flying on the bike with the moon in the background is more iconic.

I'm sorry, you seem to be from the US, so I take it your English should be fine, but how young áre you?

Again, there is no baby-hand... it's Elliot's hand...
And that image added to the moon-image shouldn't make it worse, they're equally well-known...

too late to get out of this argument...lol..you cant run away.

that's a baby hand and you know it... have fun with your baby hand cover.

dallywhitty · 06-10-2012, 11:03 PM

That supposed 'baby hand' image was used on the original poster, and it's obviously the hand of a child (Elliot!), not a baby. Your argument is invalid.

sorry but 30 years later...it looks kind of dumb. because i have actually seen who elliot is and its not a 4 year old baby.
still like ET on the bike with the moon background though.

RudyC · 06-10-2012, 11:09 PM

this is what they used for the aussie cover.

i like this simpler version more.
