    I don’t know what that thing is that’s attacking Elvis Mitchell’s scalp but I do know it’s nice to see Big Roge back on the screen.

    Wha … ??? Next you’ll be saying you want to keel haul Andy Rooney and take a cat-o-nine-tails to Larry King!

    All the coolest people in the world have robo-voices these days. Hawking. Ebert. Robocop. Justin Beiber. The list is endless.

    I absolutely love Roger Ebert. There’s no professional critic working today that speaks the truth about movies like Roger does. Every now and then, he does a bad review (Speed 2 anyone?), but for the most part, he takes the intended audience into account when he gives a movie a rating, and I find that extremely rare, even though to me it should be sort of a no-brainer for any critic.

    It’s good to see him back in control of At the Movies more than anything else.

    I loved At the Movies growing up. I think any time you can gain a little movie knowledge while being entertained is always welcome. But again, I’m a movie dork. I subscribe to Cinefex, I read scripts and watch commentaries, and sometimes the making of a movie is more interesting to me than the movie itself…so to me, Ebert’s a lot like me: a bit of a movie snob, but overall just steeped in movie knowledge with a huge love of all kinds of movies.

    So basically, Bing, you make fun of Roger, you’re fuckin’ with one of my peeps…you just watch yourself…

    wow. i loved watching at the movies.

    the only issue i’ve ever had with ebert was a few months ago when he said that video games could never be art. other than that, cool dude. he’s got a commentary on the casablanca blu-ray that’s really good.

    Well, I agree with you Rob on that he is a movie snob, and I think that is why I hate him so much that and how ugly and mean he was to Gene Siskel when Gene was dying.

    I don’t think there is any middle ground to be reached on this issue so, Gentlemen’s agreement to disagree?

    You are a legitimate phenomenon.
