Roger Ebert: Self - Host

Quotes 

• Richard Roeper - Host : [reviewing "London"]  We deserve to see a film that doesn't feel as if it were written by a nineteen year old who just got his heart broken for the first time, so thumbs down, down, down, down, down, down, down.

  Roger Ebert - Host : Thumbs- thumbs...

  Richard Roeper - Host : That'll be thumbs down.

  Roger Ebert - Host : Me too. My goodness, what an ordeal this was to be in that bathroom, locked in there with these boring people...

  Richard Roeper - Host : No, what an ordeal for US to watch it. Yeah.

  Roger Ebert - Host : ...Who are stoned out of their minds and having these meaningless conversations: "Who is God?" "Does God exist?" "Is there an afterlife?" Lemme try something on you here: I've never snorted cocaine, so I can't say this for sure, but I'll bet that if you... began by being wasted, snorted cocaine, drank, and passed out, and were awakened by a phone call and went to a party and spent the next three hours snorting unlimited amounts of MORE cocaine, and drinking tequila out of a bottle, you would not be able to talk.

  Richard Roeper - Host : Yeah. And yet, they're able to articulate these Philosophy 101 arguments. And that's the other thing, Roger: We don't know ANYTHING about these people! This guy, he wakes up stoned, he apparently has a ton of cash, because he's buying all these drugs. We get flashbacks in these beautiful houses, we don't know anything about this guy. There's not one...

  Roger Ebert - Host : Doesn't matter.

  Richard Roeper - Host : ...Redeeming quality about him.

  Roger Ebert - Host : It only matters...

  Richard Roeper - Host : I just want his girlfriend to get on that plane and get outta town!
