I came to this thought that E.T. was in fact a Jedi (or at least Force-sensitive) and the more I think about it, the more it seems possible. This would explain many things.

First, we already know that E.T came from the Star Wars Galaxy.

So, if he was a Jedi, he would show some force powers:

Force healing and/or Plant Surge when he revived a Flower.

and/or when he revived a Flower. Hibernation trance may explain his recovery.

may explain his recovery. Telekinesis to lift him, Eliot and their Bike into the air and toward the forest.

to lift him, Eliot and their Bike into the air and toward the forest. Lumos for his finger light (ok, I'm mixing universes on this one, it probably has a biological explanation.)

So, the only thing left is to determine if all others member of E.T.'s species (Children of the Green Planet) possess those powers. I hope we could find this information in "E.T.: The Book of the Green Planet" (a book from E.T. franchise which is the sequel to movie's novelization).
