E.T., sober up.

The lovable alien from "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial" is on Maxim magazine's list of the 20 Greatest Movie Drinkers.

E.T. is No. 9 on the list, while Bluto (John Belushi) from "Animal House" is one spot ahead of him.

Other top movie drinkers include The Waco Kid (Gene Wilder) from "Blazing Saddles, who comes in just ahead of the McKenzie Brothers (Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas) in "Strange Brew," and just behind Coach Buttermaker (Walter Matthau) of "The Bad News Bears."

Dudley Moore's Arthur is an obvious choice -- he comes in at No. 2, and a couple of Will Ferrell characters are at the bottom and top of the list, respectively.

Ferrell's Ron Burgundy from "Anchorman" is No. 19, and his Frank "the Tank" from "Old School" is No. 1.
