Title: Roger Ebert, Fabulously Cynical and Hypocritical Lib and Movie Critic
Post by: trapeze on April 04, 2013, 02:51:35 PM
Dead.

I mostly agreed with his movie reviews but his politics were deranged and hateful.

That's all I have to say.

Well, Roger Ebert died. I'm sorry about that. Except he didn't just critique movies, he spent his later years impugning conservatives in general and Republicans in particular. So, just because the old bastard had a t.v. show, and usually preached to the Leftist-Progressive crowds who watched PBS(hit), he was much adored. Except for me. I could not stand the man. Now if he just shut his yap and stuck to what he knew, criticizing movies, and stayed out of much that he didn't know - conservative politics, I might just be able to shed a tear for the old coot.

But since he didn't, eff him.

I meant it was like only yesterday when he announced he was going to get treatment again.

Always like Siskel better. Mostly because he wasn't a bloated fat-faced pussy.

Rest, Leftist.

Yeah when Siskel died several years ago, I was just surprised it was him rather than Ebert. At the time Ebert was really fat and looked like the far better candidate to have croaked.

Never paid any attention to him anyway so now that he is gone I can't miss a damn thing, I count myself lucky.
