It ’s been almost 30 year since E.T. and his uncomfortably mould finger rule movie CRT screen . But Paul , opening this weekend Stateside , is full of fiddling E.T. jokes , most of them featured in the movie ’s drone .
There ’s just something about the fiddling guy that makes you require to poke fun at him , whether it ’s his childlike optimism or his habit of getting inebriated and playing dress - up . In honour of Paul , here are the 10 weirdest or funniest E.T. spoofs of all time .

10 . Saturday Night Live , “ Alienses ”
This one sort of falls under the category of “ weird ” rather than “ funniest , ” but we sort of like it . Sigourney Weaver appeared on Saturday Night Live around the clip Aliens was come out , and she did an off - kilter Aliens spoof in which Ripley ’s crew of space marines spud E.T. by mistake . Most of the entertainment value in this skit comes from how gung - ho Weaver is to bemock her new pic … and the fact that the E.T. they shoot is so clear a cheap natural rubber model .

9 . The Critic
The gone - too - soon toon about a boozy pic critic give us this dead brilliant lampoon hollo D.T. : The Drunken Terrestrial , in which the alien gets sloppily affectionate and burps up live cats . Awesome .
8 . The Simpsons , “ A Star is Burns . ”
The Simpsons has reference or burlesque E.T. numerous times , but the funniest / oddest might be Mr. Burns ’ brusque film , in which he recreates the scene where E.T. reconnects with his starship — except that Mr. Burns is in the place of E.T.
7 . Animaniacs , “ Hooked on a Ceiling . ”
This Spielberg - bring on show boast tons of unearthly E.T. source and nods . In especial , in this episode , Yakko , Wakko and Dot have to repaint the Sistine Chapel after they accidentally ( sort of ) whitewash over it . They mock tons of pappa culture image , before ending up with a translation of Michelangelo ’s introduction with Elliot and E.T. in topographic point of Adam and God .
6 . The Dukes of Hazzard , “ Strange Visitor to Hazzard . ”
You could view this episode of the Dukes of Hazzard as either a pasquinade or an court , I guess . The duke meet a diminutive alien who just wants to go home , and who has a heavy time communicating . Of course , this being the Dukes of Hazzard , the solution to mystify him menage postulate peck of car chases and brushes with Boss Hogg and stuff . Here ’s the end of the installment , where the niggling guy ultimately gets back to his ship .
5 . Mad Magazine , “ Q.T. : The Quasi - planetary . ”
This is another one that might come under “ weirdest . ” frantic Magazine ’s charade are usually evenhandedly refined — but this one train the fit where E.T. start intoxicated and Elliott find it at schooling to , er , the next level . It ’s really slightly worrisome , so be discourage . Also , at the remainder of the cartoon strip , it turn out that Q.T. is actually a subsequence to nigh Encounters of the Turd Kind , and it grow out Richard Dreyfuss has been submit to dreadful experiments for the past five years .
4 . ET - X trailer
This spoofy laggard for a fake E.T. continuation is somewhat amazing . E.T. ’s people come back to Earth — but this time they ’re here for conquest . What really makes it is the scene of the E.T. guy incinerating everybody with their glow fingers .
3 . Untitled E.T. Porn
I think this is a travesty in the means that all porno version of mainstream stuff and nonsense are automatically parody . And also , the idea of E.T. having sex with Abraham Lincoln is sort of per se funny / frightful . you’re able to watch a censored - but - still - NSFW cartridge clip of this videohere , but be warned : It may put you off the idea of sex for the rest of your life story .
This ET porno will break the very notion of sex for you forever [ NSFW ]
2 . Badi : Turkish E.T.
Long before anybody made “ Sweded ” versions of picture show , there were “ Turkish ” versions , except that these were mostly made by actual Turkish people , as far as we know . Possibly the most insane isBadi , the Turkish version of E.T.It ’s jolly much entirely played for jape , with Badi checking out porn ( in the clip above ) and also follow the kids to schoolhouse , where their teacher fell dead of cushion . grownup ’ reaction to Badi often involve a quite a little of Vaudeville running in and out of doors and bugged - out middle . A extended revaluation ishere .
1 . Robot Chicken .
Seth Green and Matthew Senreich ’s stop movement charade show has poked fun at E.T. a couple of times , but our favorite is in all likelihood this room - too - mean skit about what happens when E.T. in the end gets home — and it turn out that he ’s not all that pop with the homies .
