->''"It was the usual cop-out of hurrying the movie to meet a schedule. We had to make the New York premiere because it has been scheduled as a benefit for one of Creator/BetteDavis' charities. Our backs were to the wall, and we had little time to test the picture. We damn near didn't make the delivery date."''

->Film/{{ET|TheExtraTerrestrial}} ''was the biggest movie of 1982, so it was big news when Warner Communications nabbed the video-game rights from Creator/StevenSpielberg and promised that the game would be done for the 1982 Christmas season.
