I thought E.T. was overrated.

Not meant as a threadcrap, but Spielberg's never been one of my favorite directors. However, I still think his early work has endured.

I'd put ET up there, but I haven't seen it in awhile.

a lot of his other stuff, are frankly quite pretentious, but entertaining.

I wanted to include "1941" in there, but I knew I'd catch heck for it if I did.

1. Jaws (just BARELY edging out...)
2. Raiders of the Lost Ark

then there's a big dip in interest, and finally we arrive at
3. Jurassic Park
4. A.I.
5. Catch Me if You Can

I thought Minority Report was utter crap, and Schindlers List just more manipulative Spielberg shmaltz.

Still, for Jaws and Raiders alone, the man belongs in the pantheon.
