    In honour of Roger Ebert's passing yesterday, I thought I would start a thread with a fun little game (I wasn't sure whether to put this in Fun & Games or here, so I apologize if it's in the wrong section, mods!).

    It's very simple. One person lists a movie and the next person gives it "No thumbs up" "One thumb up" or "Two thumbs up" a la Siskel & Ebert (& subsequently Ebert & Roeper) and gives an explanation for their chosen rating. If you haven't seen the film, just say "pass" or something and list another movie for the next person.

    So, here we go! I'll start :slight_smile:

    I've only seen parts of it, but from what I saw, I'd give it 1 thumb :thumbsup:

    One thumb up, from what I've seen, it is a great piece from a great director, redefining American culture.

    One thumbs up.I liked it, but it is still hard for me to grasp the fact that Ben Affleck made a good movie. It absolutely boggles me.

    Two thumbs. Rarely does a US movie have such a fantastic sense of humour!
