      The movie DOES open up with a cigarette scene and a teen boy about gesturing towards his friend's mom's tushie. However, the movie also shows never to judge a book by its cover: ET is kind, wise and has healing powers despite his appearance and the scientist proves to be sympathetic and caring, not cold-hearted.My advice is to sit down with your kids before and after movies to talk about what was good about it and what they'd wished had been left out of the movie. It's a great way to share views and teach children about what is appropriate and what is not. Fantastic flick This title contains: Positive Messages. Positive role models.

Adult Written by JenPete November 7,  TERRIBLE foul language makes this otherwise fantastic family film inappropriate We had great memories of this film and hoped to share it with our 8 and 10 year olds.I'm sure glad we previewed it. The use of foul language is absolutely inappropriate for what would otherwise be a fantastic family film. There are, of course, tense moments, and some discussion should be had with young children about e. Spielberg did a great job building tension visually and with the help of John WIlliams' score.We'll save this for when the kids are older. This title contains: Language. Helped me decide 4.

I was excited to show it to my son who's five and loves anything about aliens, monsters etc.So we watched it. Thankfully he didn't catch it the first time around but he won't be watching this for quite a while. It's too bad too, it's a really cute movie aside from the language. Helped me decide 6.

Parent Written by kristakj October 18,  For older than 7 My son is 7 and was still scared by ET so I think depending on your child you may want to wait a few years.Helped me decide 2. Had useful details 2. Adult Written by DrHoritor January 27,  The first immediate issue is the mother who very shockingly lets her children get away with all sorts of bad behavior.She not only does not make any effort to stop or correct their behavior whatsoever, but she also seems to encourage it. And she is a terrible role model. My heart and stomach absolutely sank when Elliott called his brother P-breath. My parents almost threw away the movie when I was younger for this very reason. Am not happy at all to see this is in the juvenile section at the library.There are still too many ways that the bad things are sneaking in. I like certain morals of Elliott and E. T and there are lessons to be learned about family. I will add however that some scenes might also be scary or too intense for younger children. They are not important to the overall story. Helped me decide 1. Read my mind 2. Parent of a 9-year-old Written by Jackandeoin January 30,  ET the Extra Terrestrial is an exciting adventure story about the friendship between a young boy and an alien.It is a classic science fiction movie, but some of its scenes might be too intense for younger viewers. Values in this movie that you could reinforce with your children include friendship, loyalty, courage and selflessness.

The Romans rebounded, however, driving the Carthaginians out of Spain and launching an invasion of North Africa. Hannibal was born in B.Hamilcar died in B. Hannibal swiftly consolidated control in the region from the seaport base of Cartagena New Carthage ; he also married a Spanish princess. Carthaginian forces besieged Saguntum for eight months before the city fell. The march that followed—which covered some 1, miles 1, kilometers through the Pyrenees, across the Rhone River and the snowcapped Alps, and finally into central Italy—would be remembered as one of the most famous campaigns in history.With his forces depleted by the harsh Alpine crossing, Hannibal met the powerful army of the Roman general Publius Cornelius Scipio on the plains west of the Ticino River.Late in B. By the spring of B. While the Roman general Varro massed his infantry in the center with his cavalry on each wing—a classic military formation—Hannibal maintained a relatively weak center but strong infantry and cavalry forces at the flanks. When the Romans advanced, the Carthaginians were able to hold their center and win the struggle at the sides, enveloping the enemy and cutting off the possibility of retreat by sending a cavalry charge across the rear.In northern Italy in B. This time it was the Romans with the help of their North African allies, the Numidians who enveloped and smothered the Carthaginians, killing some 20, soldiers at a loss of only 1, of their own men. In honor of his great victory, Scipio was given the name Africanus.In the peace agreement that ended the Second Punic War, Carthage was allowed to keep only its territory in North Africa but lost its overseas empire permanently.It was also forced to surrender its fleet and pay a large indemnity in silver, and to agree never again to re-arm or declare war without permission from Rome. Hannibal, who escaped with his life from the crushing defeat at Zama and still harbored a desire to defeat Rome, retained his military title despite accusations that he had botched the conduct of the war. In addition, he was made a civil magistrate in the government of Carthage. For most of this time, Hannibal fought with little aid from Carthage.He was able to inflict heavy casualties on the Roman army in the battles of Trebbia, Trasimene and Cannae, but at a heavy cost in men and many of his elephants. He was able to get within three miles of the capital before a stalemate ensued. Hannibal did not have the numbers to successfully push into Rome, and Scipio didn't have the superior forces to defeat him. Meanwhile, Rome dispatched forces to Iberia and North Africa, raiding Carthaginian towns and villages. They used trumpets to stampede the remaining few elephants, which circled back and trampled the Carthaginian troops.Hannibal's army was scattered and many of his soldiers were gradually hunted down and killed by the Romans. The Roman terms for peace were extremely harsh on the Carthaginians, severely reducing their military and extracting large reparations. After being elected a chief magistrate, Hannibal spent the next several years in Carthaginian politics.During this time, he instituted elections for military judges and changed terms of office from life to two-years. However, the Romans eventually became concerned about Hannibal's growing power and in B. Hannibal moved to Ephesus Turkey and became a military adviser.
