Did you ever wish The Movie “E.T.” ended differently ?
In the Rewrite, E.T. chooses stay on earth because of his relationship with Elliot and his family. People are a lot more accepting of different species these days and as a result, E.T. is met with nothing but friendliness. After time, people learned so much from E.T and they from him, that all of E.T.’s family and friends were invited to earth to live or visit.
When his friends and family arrived, they created the E.T. community. The community then applied for some Government funding to help get started, but because of the the bad economic times they were declined. It turns out they didn’t need assistance after all because the E.T. community was strong on brainpower. So they went on to develop a product that became an overnight success.
They created the “E-Pad” to directly compete with Apple’s Ipad. And and boy, did it give the Ipad a run for it’s money. Additionally, they launched the first E-Pad App and called it “E.T. phone home.” In the first week alone the App was downloaded 4 billion times, the most ever in history. The E.T. community was now thriving. As an accidental benefit, humans finally understood space a lot better and stopped spending hundreds of billions of dollars to find out if there is sand on Mars, or Good Humor ice cream trucks on Jupiter.
The movie still would have been great.
