Your inability to break from your crowd, and your lack of discernment was revealed in your inability to be aware of the bias that he brought to his personal opinions on films and Hollywood, you came late to that realization if you ever did realize it, and you still don’t seem to care much for people knowing it, like James Dean, Ebert seems like some sort of God to you.
Your incredible ego doesn’t make you anything more than just another movie fan with opinions, and not very original ones.
Ebert was a childhood inspiration. He contributed mightily to American culture by teaching people about cinema. All critics have some sort of bias. Telling someone to keep their opinions out of their criticism is like telling someone to keep their opinions out of their posts on FR.
