Not worth a click through either way. Cannot believe that somebody would be marketing Ebert after his death. Retire the fucking domain.

It's like having some white dude wearing number 42 on his Dodger jersey that happens to, just by accident, have the name Robinson on the back.

All of Roger's reviews are there. I'd hate to see those disappear.

In the years before he died, he worked with his wife (Chaz) and the original developer of the ebert site (back when it was just his reviews on there, with no other contributors) to build the vision of the site that would live on. I think they did quite well.
