Roger Ebert, 70

[mclem0822]

Very sad news. Roger Ebert had such a wonderful passion for film. He had an amazing ability to express that passion in his writing, and verbally during his work on television reviewing films. I was on Siskelandebert.org just last eveing Roger and the late Gene Siskel ranking their choices for the Best Films of 1992. Whether you agree with either critic's opinion about a particular picture, one thing that always came across was the love and enjoyment each felt about the movies. It was a pleasure to watch them both. Roger in recent years was quite opinionated on a variety of topics on twitter, and on his website. He was certainly not shy about expressing his political opinions either, anyone who follows him on twitter certainly knows this to be true. I will miss his writing, but his words and his review work on video will live on. Condolences to his wife Chazz, RIP hopefully Gene and Roger are at a screening together once again.
