He finally snapped because people kept praising him for Beatles songs he didn't even write.

[@spraragen88]

Technically he did have an arrest warrant out for him in Japan, he got busted for bringing in half a pound of pot. If he was anyone else, they would have given him 7 years in jail.

[@MrSomebodyStrange]

@@spraragen88 The film would go like this: it would start with the arrest and release of McCartney, then a bunch of time skips where he doesn't visit Japan for 40 years, and in the end there would be the most shocking plot twist to the most boring film ever - the whole time, from arrest to modern days IT WAS BILLY SHEARS

one of my favorite action movies of all time. dirty, grissly, and genty is awesome.

[@silvervalleystudios2486]

And the best part about it, no long wait for it to come out on VHS. Movies like this were made for VHS.

[@Master_Yoda1990]

Im convinced that Roger Ebert just doesn’t like action and horror movies.

[@mamawray]

That's why Siskel was there: to tell Roger Ebert to stop throwing shade at a whole genre and just enjoy the films for the entertainment that they are.

[@mamawray]

That said, it's more fair to say that he hated slasher flicks, especially of the "dead teenager" variety. He didn't even like the first "Elm Street" movie, or The Thing (1982) which is unreal to me. They are only the scariest goddamn movies of all time, I-M-not-so-humble-O. Basically Ebert liked horror FILMS not movies e.g.: Nosferatu, The Shining, (probably) Psycho. And those are good, obviously, but The Thing? HOLY SHIT. Same goes for action movies. He loved every single Indiana Jones movie, which have plenty of blood, but its more like an old-fashioned Errol Flynn-type swashbuckler adventure, than some gritty 1970s stuff like Death Wish. In fairness, there is a reason they call them "exploitation movies". I think a better term for them would be "Violence Porn" and Ebert just didn't like porn. I mean, I* do, but I easily recognize that its not for everybody.

[@Master_Yoda1990]

MG Wray yeah I definitely got that vibe off him, the stereotypical old man that likes the classic motion pictures over new movies. Yeah, it’s not for everyone, however I think a reviewers/critics job is to evaluate cinematography and the quality of the film over their taste of the genre. Maybe Ebert should’ve stuck to the genres he was used to.

[@quesoblanco444]

That is ridiculous, he liked Ghost of Mars, Anaconda, Congo and Speed 2:Cruise Control. Please stop trafficking in absurdities.

[@Master_Yoda1990]

Queso Blanco oh hello, it’s not inaccurate, although my wording may be off, he didn’t like extreme horror or action, things with a lot of blood and violence, things almost pinochle in horror now, he liked some camp in his movies. You’re list is a good example and a lot of people don’t like that in action and horror, that’s why his views often conflicted with the main audience, the list you presented were mostly flops, where as most of the movies he hated everyone else loved, like hellraiser, Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm street, Death Wish, and Child’s Play, most of which were successful theatrically.

I saw The Exterminator in the theater on its initial run. A couple of years later some theaters ran it as a Double Feature with Vice Squad, starring Wings Hauser and Season Hubley

[@mamawray]

@ 1:51: I think we all need to admit: that stunt jump with the explosion behind it is EPIC. I want to know who that stuntman was, and I want to see an interview with him just talking about his career and specifically that stunt. Did they shoot him up there in a kind of catapult? Did he launch from a spring board? How far did he fall? Did he land on an inflated mat or in a pool?

I remember reading a review of the first movie in a comic when I was a kid, and just a bit too young to go to the pictures and see it. It was years before I saw both films in a video library and rented them. Worth the wait though, those 80s action movies were such good fun.

It really is because the only correct answer to that stupid comment is "Yes you can". Even the most regressive, exploitative film can be packaged and sold and make a profit in todays climate because it turns out- the average movie-watcher doesn't give a shit about that, just "is the film entertaining to me: yes or no?"

[@mamawray]

@ 6:00. The pacing makes me think that the producers recognized that there wasn't enough money to shoot everything in the script, and so they wisely cut anything involving character development to make sure that the truly essential elements of the story (i.e. the murders) were preserved.
