Roger Ebert STILL Giving Reviews?

What a gimmick.. The guy has been dead for years, but they still put out reviews with his name. And I bet that marketing works.

You mean on his site? Those critics are terrible and every other film offends them.

I was looking up a movie yesterday, and Google results showed it on the lower right, with an IMDB, RT, and a Roger Ebert score.

I have one of his movie review books and I read it a lot deciding if I want to watch film or not.

He was my favorite critic despite his disdain for a lot of fun 80s horrors...the guy had some good points

I had a couple of his books too, he was a clever writer

You're not understanding... There is even a site with reviews. He's dead!

Its just gross branding.
