NEWS UPDATES
Whoa! SOOOOOOOOOO much has happened since my last post on here.
First off, I'm really excited, I just picked up an original call sheet from the
making of E.T.!!!! I don't know how I lucked to find it but I did. For those
that don't know what a call sheet is, it is pretty much a breakdown of the
shooting schedule, locations for the day and other info that might be needed.
On films they are usually handed out to the crew the day before and it will
give the times everyone needs to be on set and what scenes are going to be s
hot. so yeah, I'M VERY EXCITED!
So, I have temporary relocated to Orlando FL. I needed a break from NYC
so I moved down to FL for the next 6 months to a year while my girlfriend
finishes school. It's a BIG change but cool, I bought a annual pass to
Universal Studios and I've been there 4 times already in 3 weeks! I can't get
enough of that E.T. adventure ride! They have new items in the gift shop but I'm
taking my time with buying them. As for my collection, unfor.
I have boxed it all up and put in storage, well except a few
pieces but all new additions are coming to our condo in FL.
If you are in the central FL. area, they are showing E.T. outdoors.
Thursday, September 18 at 8:00 PM in Shady Park at Hannibal Square,
Winter Park, (Orlando) FL.
click here
for more info.
Now the big news for the site...
I just linked up with playmountain.net which is a Steven Spielberg fan forum.
They have probably one of the most active E.T. forums let alone
anything and everything Steven Spielberg. Sooooo go check that out E.T. FORUM
I'm taking pictures and adding items to the store this week. It will
be mostly vintage items from 1982.
Last but not least, I apologize for the delays in response to emails.

May day may day
It seems to be a slow news day. I started to plan my annual trip to Universal Studios and
Disney World in Florida! Steven Spielberg and John Williams were in NYC last week
with the NY philharmonic for two shows. From what I hear from my friend, it was awesome!
I'm kicking myself for not going. I've acquired some rare E.T. Universal Studios Japan
employee/behind the scenes items recently. I will post pics soon. I've also gotten a few
other really cool additions to the collection that I haven't reported yet. I have actually
been getting crazy thoughts of selling the WHOLE collection recently. make me an offer!
As always, thanks for check out my site! *Be Gooooooood*
E.T. on the BIG screen I grabbed this from Spielbergfilms.com.
March 30, 2006
'E.T.' touches down at Aero Theatre this Sunday
Corrections: "E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial" will actually be playing at Santa Monica's Aero
Theatre this Sunday (in our original headline, which has been edited, I incorrectly stated
that it'd be at the Egyptian.) Also, Sean Frye and Allen Daviau will be presented before the film to introduce it, not after the screening as previously reported. Sorry for the errors.
Original story: Sorry for the short notice, but fans in the L.A. area will want to cancel all plans this Sunday afternoon (April 2 at 3 p.m. at Santa Monica's Aero Theatre) to attend the American Cinematheque's screening of "E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial."
It's been four years since the little guy last visited in wide release (during the wonderful and sadly undervalued re-release of the film upon its 20th anniversary), so if you've been hoping to revisit the film in theaters, no is your chance!
Like the 20th anniversary re-release, the version of the film screening appears to be the 120-minute 2002 cut. I know that version has its share of detractors, but don't let that keep you away from experience this magical film as it is meant to be seen.
The film will be introduced by actor Sean Frye ("Steve," on of Michael's friends in the film) and most exciting of all, Director of Photography Allen Daviau. Treat yourself (and your families) to a wondrous experience at the movies this Sunday if you can
