I would love to see a sequel of what the scientists replacing the survivors go thru in later years. That is a top 5 Spielberg movie for me

CE3K is one of the best science fiction movies ever put to film. It is one that I will stop to watch any time I see it on TV.
I'd think a sequel might look a bit like Cocoon the Return, only in this case, Richard Dreyfuss comes back to Earth and says to Teri Garr, "remember me?" But the flip side of that would be what Earth scientists learned with the ET that stayed behind.
Saw an article today that Harrison Ford has been de-aged for the upcoming Indiana Jones movie to appear as he did in the original movies. So de-aging Dreyfuss should certainly be possible.bonfarr said:Cinco Ranch Aggie said:

It would have to be heavily CGI because the humans that came out of the UFO in CE3K hadn't aged in Earth years. The WW2 pilots looked like they were still 25 years old.

That and Star Wars coming out so close to each other basically changed the science fiction genre from B movie to the top of the movie world.
The infamous bet over the two movies…

As a kid, the abduction scene and the gas helicopters scared me worse than Jaws. I could read where great white sharks typically roamed, so it didn't scare me to go to Texas beaches. But there is no research on whether or not I could be sucked through the dog door if the aliens arrived.
Yep. So was the shot coming down the chimney when Melinda Dillon reached in to close the flue.AgTrip said:HtownAg92 said:

Those floor vent screws unscrewing was terrifying. I'm with you on that!!

Thoughts on disclosure? Seeing data suggesting et is very involved in the current cover-up.TCTTS said:
