Surprised he lived that long.

He was a true fighter!!

His life started out slow, and I was losing interest. But when the character of Siskel was introduced, the interplay between the two produced both vivid dialogue and occasional poignancy. The ending was expected, but still well executed and produced emotion for me. I give his life a thumbs up.

I'll always admire his perseverance in "the face" of his physical obstascles. R.I.P.
Thumbs up.

Terrible news. I'm in the process of watching his top ten movie lists. Currently on 1980. Still got a lot more to go, but it's been a great experience so far. Cancer sucks.

R.I.P. Roger.

He fought it as long as he could. Gotta admire him for that.

Well, then, John Goodman would be perfect at playing the dead Roger Ebert.

Anybody who becomes the #1 authority and name in their position deserves some respect. Ebert was certainly that. We'll miss ya man.

I always respected Ebert for defending the prequal Star Wars films when everyone else was blindly hating them

Great man

He wasn't just a great critic, he was a great writer. His evisceration of Rob Schneider in his now-famous review of Deuce Bigalow: European Gigilo was flawless.

KChiefer 04-04-2013 05:28 PM

Just yesterday on the news they were saying his cancer had returned and he was going for treatment. One of the greatest people ever from Urbana/UIUC. We have an annual film festival in his name. The show will go on...
