I keep forgetting Siskel & Ebert use to review anime.

Man how did I forget Hartman did Gigi? He's right though, these movies had some crazy talent for the dubs

He got into full heated argument over Metropolis
He gives this really weird editorial when he talks about Grave of Fireflies. Like, he earnestly tries to gas anime up, but he has weird observations. “The characters skin may be plasticky, and doll-like, but these movies have heart!” Huh?
To him realism = real, & simple faces is such an abstraction that he can't empathize with anything less than that. It might also be him trying to introduce anime to people who ONLY watch live action, so I wouldn't be harsh on his observations. This was novel for U.S. audiences.
Siskel & Ebert were the reason I got into anime. When I was a kid I used to religiously watch their show with my mom. One fateful day I saw their review for Ghost in the Shell and I knew right then I had too see that movie.
They loved Roujin Z
The "late" Phil Hartman 😢
I didn't always agree with Siskel and Ebert's takes (particularly when Ebert chastised South Park BLU or when he said "video games aren't art), but I feel when Ebert passed over a decade after Siskel that people's standards for films really sunk.
HEYAOH MEYEAZAKI
I really gotta find an archive of Siskel and Ebert and add it to my local archives.
![Roger Ebert & Gene Siskel hated Jim Carrey's performance in "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" (1994). Ebert even predicted that Carrey won't have much of a career. After watching "The Truman Show" (1998), Ebert not only gave a thumbs up, but admitted that he didn't get much of what Carrey was doing at the beginning of his career, but over the course of 4 years he understood and started to appreciate his performances. Ebert & Siskel aired an entire episode for him. Ebert interviewed Jim Carrey before the said episode. During that interview, Carrey brought up the thumbs down review and said, "I really like to look at life as the negatives are things to learn from, or things to to tell you it's not all gonna be roses. That's how I looked at it [thumbs down]. I thought, 'I hope the movie does good but a lot of people aren't gonna like it.'" P.S: On this day, 28 years ago, Petere Wier's "The Truman Show" (1998) premiered in Westwood, California.](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2061200911327010878/amplify_video_thumb/2061200480840413184/img/CA-QhQyV9TiKVyal.jpg)
