I watched Siskel and Ebert for many years, and Ebert and Roeper less so. Corporate suits replaced Roeper and a running list of guest critics with Ben Lyons and Ben Mankiewicz in 2008 who were then unceremoniously fired after a short few months. The retooled show returns this upcoming Saturday (9/5) with A.O. Scott (New York Times) and Michael Philips (Chicago Tribune) taking over. Both were great opposite Roeper, especially Scott, who I rarely disagree with (when it comes to American films at least - he loves some pretentious European crap!). Scott also has a running collection of short video reviews of classic movies that can be found on youtube or the NYT website. His most recent is The Big Lebowski - which is embedded after the jump.

We owe it to someone else's achievements in health and thus feel joy, depending on the success of others as if their achievements, and this is the Buddha mind. Always hold the interests of all sentient beings of the heart, we can not leave the joy forever.
