E.T. Reunites With Elliott In Sky’s Blockbuster Christmas Advert
Were you a fan of the Sci-fi blockbuster ET?
The world’s most-beloved alien ET has returned back after staying 37years away on his own planet. In a twist to the 1982 Steven Spielberg movie, ET landed back on earth to meet his dated-back friend Elliott, who’s now very grown and married with two kids.
ET showed up unannounced at Christmas and in scenes reminiscent of the original, as he claps his eyes on Eliott’s two children, and all three screamed out loud in fear.
