If you think the original E.T. is dated, imagine the same premise set in an 1870′s suburbia equivalent, where E.T. suddenly finds himself on a planet swimming in a sea of handlebar mustaches and penny-farthings. There he befriends Elliot, a 10 year old boy who has already lived a quarter of his life expectancy, then develops a taste for Nesselrode, and “phones home” using Morse Code. Bored yet?

There may be only so many ways you can spoof on the purported balloon boy, but one more will not hurt. He should be so lucky as to fly in front of a full moon and not be spotted by anyone. If an alien isn’t caught doing it then there is a good chance that a family desperate for fame wouldn’t be either. All they would miss would be their 15 minutes of fame, followed by a possible jail term.

Once you have played Space Invaders for a while, you get tired of fighting aliens that you have no personal vendetta against. As they describe, “First to be destroyed is E.T. followed by a few rows of A.L.F. then finally Marvin the Martian.” It also appears you get the occasional tie fighter speeding across the top. Now you have some recognizable annoyances to shoot at.

Somehow I think this movie would have a very different ending than the original E.T. The “Elliot’s New Friend” T-Shirt is available in sizes for both Girls and Guys.
