A list of rules for movie critics by Ebert and it includes this nugget ...

Employers are eager to replace us with Celeb Info-Nuggets that will pimp to the mouth-breathers, who underline the words with their index fingers whilst they watch television.

Wouldn't that leave smudges on the television? I won't stand for that.

I actually cried while reading that. That's like reading Ted Williams' Rule Book on hitting or Magic Johnson's Rule Book on passing. What a brilliant writer.

Ebert, God Bless the Man. So grateful he can still write. Nice to know there is a big shot journo who still believes in doing things the right way and understands what ethics are.

Eastwood talking about fan photos was hilarious.
