It's amazing how ugly E.T. is yet we still love him. OK, so he's kind of cute, but that's mostly his personality. As far as looks go, he's hideous. Imagine if he's the best looking one out of all his species. There may be E.T.'s that are twice as wrinkly and stubby as him. That's why he left his ship. He was sick of all the nasty aliens. Once he saw some hot blondes on Earth, he cut.
I distinctly remember the green trim on this VHS. I wish I remembered it enough to have kept it after all these years so I could have an extra $800 now, but oh well. I loved any VHS cassette that was different. Nickelodeon's were orange. That felt special. I always thought, "how much does cassette die cost? Can't you guys make all of them awesome?"
