E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)

Mary: If you ever see it again, whatever it is, don't catch it, just call me and we'll call somebody and have them take it away. Gertie: Like the dogcatcher? Elliot: But they'll give it a lobotomy or do experiments on it or something.

Michael: Maybe he's some animal that wasn't supposed to live. Could be a monkey or an orangutan. Elliot: A bald monkey? Gertie: Is he a pig? He sure eats like one.



Elliot: You could be happy here, I could take care of you. I wouldn't let anybody hurt you. We could grow up together, E.T.

Elliot: You must be dead, because I don't know how to feel. I can't feel anything anymore.

Elliot: He's a man from outer space and we're taking him to his spaceship. Greg: Well, can't he just beam up? Elliot: This is REALITY, Greg.

[On what Elliot could have seen.] Michael: Maybe an elf or a leprechaun. Elliot: It was nothing like that, penis breath!

E.T.: E.T. phone home.

Elliot: How do you explain school to a higher intelligence?

Michael: Maybe it was an iguana. Elliot: It was NO iguana. Michael: You know how they say there are alligators in the sewers? Gertie: Alligators in the sewers. Mary: All we're trying to say is, maybe you just probably imagined it. Elliot: I couldn't have imagined it! Michael: Maybe it was a pervert or a deformed kid or something. Gertie: A deformed kid. Michael: Maybe an elf or a leprechaun? Elliot: It was nothing like that, penis-breath!
