Directed by: Steven Spielberg
Starring: Drew Barrymore, Peter Coyote, Henry Thomas, Dee Wallace, Robert MacNaughton
Continuity mistake: In the exterior front shots of Elliott's house there are some significant changes to the landscape in different shots. For instance, the two lampposts at the bottom of the driveway change to an entirely different style in some shots, and the huge garden boulders repeatedly vanish and reappear. Also, note when Michael takes off on Elliott's bike to go search for ET, the in-ground lamppost that should be beside the mailbox has vanished, but it reappears when all the government agents are setting things up outside the house.
Elliot: It was nothing like that, penis breath!
Trivia: The little blonde girl Elliott kisses when the frogs are released is Erika Eleniak, who went on to become a Baywatch babe.

Answer: They're playing a generic tabletop role-playing game (RPG). In the script, it says they're playing "Dungeons and Dragons," but in the movie, they said Steve is the "Game Master." If it was D&D, Steve would be called the "Dungeon Master."
