Ebert had a bad day

Well, they both liked Ghost in the Shell.

You think this is bad, you should dig up Ebert's review of Orgasmo, complete with painfully unfunny recommendations for how they could have made it entertain him. Ebert didn't weather the 90s very well.

Orgazmo, as reimagined by Ebert.
For someone who wrote for Russ Meyer and gave positive attention to trashy sexploitation back in its heyday, you'd think he would have a better sense of humor.

oswaldtheluckyrabbit - 2013-05-02 Okay let's not start acting like Orgazmo is genius or anything. It has a few funny scenes and that's it
|
Old_Zircon - 2013-05-02 It's not that he gave it a bad review, it's his extensive recommendations for how they could have "improved" it. I feel like he must have been joking but I don't think he was.

Hooker - 2013-05-02 Oh, wait. It seems to just be Zircon, so nevermind. I thought there were a couple other people that brought it up as well.
|
Old_Zircon - 2013-05-02 I don't even remember how I first found the Orgazmo review, but I try to work it into the conversation whenever it's even vaguely relevant.
|
memedumpster - 2013-05-02 Orgazmo is the best superhero movie to date, and if you don't think so, you're the target audience for Marvel, and therefore sad and Cheetos stained.
|
Hooker - 2013-05-02 Yeah, but you haven't seen Iron Man 3. It has AN ARMY OF IRON MANS.
|
Old_Zircon - 2013-05-02 I don't know, what about Batman: The Movie?

Modern Angel - 2013-05-02 Ebert was a fucking bourgeois hack with quotidian tastes and writing habits.

Paracelsus - 2013-05-02 Well, of course, why would I actually cite one of his reviews or give an example of the kind of style I object to when I can offer a link to an 3dgy, bitchy article and a cartoon? Maybe there's some sort of actual argument in the link you sent, but it's not worth logging in to find it.

|
Paracelsus - 2013-05-02 It's possible, many are. But I have opinions I didn't crib from a blog, and I can relate the same in adult speech when asked without restorting to ad hominem. Keep me up to date on your reading, will you?

|
Hooker - 2013-05-03 Wow. They expect people to pay to read that garbage?

When these guys disagreed on this show, magic happened. This wasn't one of their best but I love how Siskel tries so hard to get through to Ebert on this.

Okay, I saw this movie when I would have been 18-19, in a theatre, and a fan of KitH, and I thought this movie had less laughs than one of their usual episodes. I'm agreeing with Ebert on this one, though I did watch it sober, which may have been the problem.
