What the hell is with all these haters and absolutely cruel remarks about Roger Ebert? He's a fantastic, wise, and kind individual. If you ever read his blog, memoir, or really any of his reviews - you'll find that it's nearly impossible to dislike this man. I'm guessing the reason for all the hate is due to Ebert's political affiliations, and regardless of whether you disagree with him or not on that matter, descending to this level of depravity to attack his image is beyond childish.
Rapa Nui would have made a better documentary. I read Naked Lunch, and when I found out it was a movie, I was horrified that they would put some of those truly disgusting images on the screen. But from what these two said, I'm actually kind of curious to watch it.
Roeper should have thought twice before making his comment about college kids liking SpongeBob because they're on drugs. I've never had a huge problem with Roeper, but he can be an idiot a lot of the time.
the main critique on zombies is that they don't have any personality... well no duh! They're dead! When was the last time you saw a corpse and said wow he has a great pesonality.
I never understood why a "rock star" would chose a name for him or his group after a meal that - in the world of beef - sits squarely on the lowest rung of the status ladder.
So it's beyond me why he didn't chose a better name when - just in the world of Beef - there are such better names out there...Like:
"May a diseased yak make love to your sister's kneecap." (Ebert to Roeper at the VERY end) That's gotta be the funniest sh*t I have ever heard and seen!
Okay 2 things: First, Spongebob the cartoon is hilarious to anyone! And the movie although not as good as the cartoon was also enjoyable. And 2nd, Van Helsing was horrible! I can not believe Ebert gave that thumbs up! He should be suspended or put in the corner or something... Just a ridiculous and horrible movie.

"Thumbing Down" someone's comment because you disagree with what they say is always ridiculous. It's a meant to signify a "bad comment" which means its either inappropriate, offensive, or poorly phrased. Otherwise it's just bigotry, and works to censor opposing views given that 6 or more thumbs down deletes the comment.

Why do we have to listen to these guys on what movies they think suck are are good. Not everyone thinks the same. That is kinda useless. I mean I am not an overweight glasses wearing man. I don't think like him. He may say a movie sucks I might say that movie is the best movie ever. Utterly useless.
you don't "have" to listen to them. for people who like them, they're fun to listen to and they provide interesting insight on their analysis and personal opinion with the movies they watch. if you don't like these guys, just don't watch them
Some movies are objectively better than others. We like to say that such things are just opinion, but it is true that movies have different levels of acting, directing, cinematography, editing, and so on. If you were to say that a movie like Resident Evil: Apocalypse (for example) is the best movie ever, you would be wrong. Period.
I love your videos! Such wonderful times with such smart, thoughtful critics. I can't recall if you've included this in one of your past videos, but there's a great exchange between Roger and Richard about War of the Worlds with Tom Cruise. Keep up the awesome work!
Can you upload the reviews for those Scooby Doo movies? Those were funny (not the movies, the reviews) although I did like Matthew Lillard (Shaggy) and Linda Cardellini (Velma) in those films.
