I had no idea it was also tied to Reeses Pieces, red hoodies and coniferous (good word!) forrests. Maybe you should talk to someone about it. haha I’m well aware of your ET phobia.

It's traumatic dent on my personality still makes me apprehensive of cornfields (this fear has doubled in intensity since the release of "Signs," by the way), Reeses Pieces, red hoodies, and coniferous forests even 20 years after my first viewing. However, "Love Actually" moved me even though I just saw it within the past few years. It's kind of my go-to movie, I really do watch it a lot. Not so much, as say the 4-year-old version of myself would, but quite often for an adult none the less. The impression the movie ET had on me is most profound.

As a child I watched the hell out of Terminator 2: Judgement Day it took years for me to realize there was a first one. I loved the three stooges and watched them repeatedly, and was also a huge fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The movies were amazing. Nowadays I would have to agree that movies do not shape our lives as much as they once did, however that doesn't mean they do not leave an impact. Movies that have impacted me as I had gotten older would be JFK, Life is Beautiful, Leon the Professional, and maybe even Reign Over Me. I think movies still impact us but in a much deeper sense than they used to. As adults we are more readily able to connect to something in a film instead of as a kid seeing Jurassic Park and wanting to be a paleontologist. Maybe one just has to look towards themselves to see how a film can be impactful. I would have to agree with you to a certain point about the movies that shaped our lives.
