Sure Good To See Roger Ebert Back

[democrat2thecore]

He's even going back and reviewing films he didn't get to review during his LONG absence (cancer and treatments). He reviewed "The Lives of Others" today. There's not a DUer here that wouldn't LOVE this movie for the warnings it gives us to the dangers of a police state and our loss of liberty and privacy. It's a German film with subtitles, but is #66 on the Internet Movie Database TOP 250 of ALL TIME! Anyway, it's good to have Ebert back and I'm glad he backed up a bit to review this movie:

4. Yeah, he's going to see PLENTY of crap!

He's probably wondering what happened while he was gone.

7. Yep, the only bright side is that he missed the latest Wayans Brothers debacle!

:evilgrin:

2. Oh- I'm glad he's back.

He has a huge heart, is such a true fan of film, and is a good democrat!

5. I watched it the other Night. DAMN!..It was Great!

9. Wasn't it? -- Excellent movie!

My wife doesn't like subtitled films, but she said she forgot about the subtitles within ten minutes. Captivating - especially for thoughtful people who understand the parallels and dangers with our own country. It's a slippery slope.

6. He's great!

I sent him a email once and got a reply from him.

I hope he's better.

He's right; that's a brilliant movie, BTW. I'd recommend it highly.

11. How sad! -- I had no idea.

By the way, I saw your username, are you involved at all in the Starbucks Union? ( http://www.starbucksunion.org/ )

12. Haha, no.

It's an inside joke from a former co-worker, actually.
