Recently, the director for the Sam Raimi produced remake of Poltergeist was announced (Gil Kenan, director of Monster House, for those who are curious). This news led me to read up on the original film. I'm not sure how true it is, but I have read Spielberg offered Tobe Hooper the chance of directing E.T., but Hooper passed.

So, assuming this is true, what if Hooper agreed to direct E.T. instead of agreeing to direct Poltergeist?
