I must say Roger Ebert is a very funny man. But very stupid as well.

08-18-2001, 07:05 PM

ebert is a fat fuck who should give himself 2 thumbs up his ass

ahahahhaahaaahahah

you shouldn't trust film critics like him. he's more of a "titanic" critic than a horror one.

Hellbilly · 08-18-2001, 09:15 PM

isnt ebert cute? his review made me smile. (dont get me wrong, "The Beyond" is one of my all-time favorites)
its just funny how "professional critics" sometimes react to movies they cannot understand ... GET A FUCKING LIFE, EBERT!

Roger Ebert is entitled to his opinion like everybody else. While he may not support "The Beyond," he has supported many controversial films in the past, most notably "Dawn of the Dead." Don't get me wrong; I'm a huge fan of "The Beyond." I just don't think it's fair to blast a critic for disliking a movie.

08-19-2001, 03:21 AM

yes its fair to blast ebert im his critic he's a big studio hack

08-19-2001, 08:07 AM

Guy who likes Dark City enough to record an audio commentary can't be all bad.

Actually, as mainstream reviewers go, I find Ebert to be one of the more thorough and reasonable.

And he did write "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls."

I kind of like Ebert, even though he's a dick, like all critics, and get's threatened easily by that which he does not understand. I agree with Ace, he is one of the more thorough and reasonable. If you look at his collected reviews from over the past three decades, the man has championed many great films that few, if any, other mainstream critics have. He's not evil. He's just really fucking wrong about the art of Lucio Fulci.
It's a shame though, the man who collaborated with Russ Meyer and praised his work (as well he should have) can't understand Fulci's work. Whatever, Roger... you turd.

"The Beyond" is inspired genius.

Please, tell us how you really feel

The only critic that matters to me is myself, all other people's opinions are just that...opinions.

mutleyhyde · 08-19-2001, 07:59 PM

All this angst directed towards Li'l Tubby, and no mention of his cripple bitch Roeper?? He's the real ass. I can hardly watch the show anymore. I actually caught it last night, and it only reaffirmed why. Roeper reminds me of another cripple bitch who only argues for the sake of arguing, incessantly blabbers on about meaningless crap, and can't admit when he's talkin' bs when he's called on it, making more of an ass of himself by reiterating the same bs. ARRGGGHH! I just want Li'l Tubby to reach over and bitch-slap the barking chihuahua!

-breathe-

Yeah, I shouldn't watch that show anymore.

I definitely don't have the same taste in movies as Roger. He listed Death Race 2000 as one of the 25 worst movies ever made. And if he could destroy the original negative, he would. I loved Death Race 2000. Sure it's campy. But that's the way it was supposed to be.
Also, Ebert gave Bulletproof and Happy Gilmore were given worse reviews than Airheads and the Waterboy. Yet, Roger called Little Nickey "Adam's Sandler's best film." I strongly dissagree. I would have given Bulletproof & Happy Gilmore the better ratings out of Adam's films. And Little Nickey would have recieved the worst.
But I really disagree with the fact that Evert actually believes that some films should be destroyed. That doesn't sound like a film lover to me.

Hellbilly · 08-20-2001, 04:21 AM

i would say that The Wedding Singer is mr. sandlers best film yet.

Mark Relford · 08-20-2001, 06:12 AM

I don't mind Li'l Tubby, but this review was lame. His feeble attempts at being witty made my stomach turn.

I think Happy Gilmore was Sandler's best film.

The Chaostar · 08-20-2001, 02:30 PM

Sandler should not make movies.

You know, Ebert IS a fan of Dario Argento and an even greater fan of George Romero. He has praised both frequently (and that's a fact).
Now we have to like him?
(He hated DAY OF THE DEAD though).

Anyone could write whatever he wants.
I once read a review of MAGNOLIA in a horror site that drove me sooooooo mad, but - hey - it's his opinion.
