I’m with you.

I liked ‘The close encounter of the 3rd kind’, compared to E.T. And I watched reruns of it, but never E.T.

"Close Encounters" lost it for me when people ended up watching UFOs on a hill near Muncie, Indiana.

Total fiction ~ no attempt at realistic representation of locale ~ phony phony phony.

Avatar lost it when...... well, when it used a trick out of Gulliver's Travels ~ the floating landmasses. I expect something more up to date than that, or, if used, to have some plausible explanation.

These films are all flawed, some moreso than others.

I like the sequel to E.T. E.T. RETURNS or WAR OF THE WORLDS. Went home, got his BIG BROTHERS and returned.
