Yawn. I had no idea opinion was so non-subjective.

I was just poking a little fun at his inconsistancies...I actually love Ebert, but I guess my tone didn't translate well to text.

Well said. He's one of the few reviewers that scores movies based on genres and expectations (which I appreciate). If I'm going to a summer popcorn movie, I want to know if it's a good summer popcorn movie. I don't want it compared to "Citizen Kane".
