    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert actually agreed about films most of the time, but since they were best known for the feuds in between, the legend grew that the two were always at odds with one another. Considering all of the films that they reviewed in their years together, they only disagreed about 30% of the time.
    • Quotes

      Gene Siskel: [reviewing "Stargate"] Do you know that the budget, supposedly, of this picture was fifty-five million dollars?

      Roger Ebert: Boy, they must've had some great lunches.

    The world has lost a great critic!
    Gene Siskel's death is the death of a major movie advertising tradition. What will happen to the thumbs? I love the show and think the two guys are so intelligent and I hear another guy will take Siskel's place. It won't be the same.
