Roger Ebert once again proves he is off his rocker…

We have discussed many times on WAMG about how crazy we think Robert Ebert is, and its finally coming to fruition.

He walks out on the TV show that made him so popular (why?) and now is retiring to “blogging” (leave the blogging to us, Ebert). Now he has turned in his review of ‘The Mummy 3’ … and it is SHOCKING.

The movie that is currently sitting at a generous 9% fresh  (we gave it a 2/5), Mr Ebert gave it 3 out of 4 stars! Are you serious? 3 out of 4 stars is probably the most ridiculous rating you can give this movie. Next he will be giving Disaster movie 3 out 4!   Here are a couple of quotes from his review:

“The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor” is the best in the series, and from the looks of it, the most expensive.”

Now why did I like this movie? It was just plain dumb fun, is why. It is absurd and preposterous, and proud of it.

So it wasn’t enough for him to give it a good rating, he also goes on to say that its the best of the series. Did we watch the same movie Ebert?

We should also note that he gave ‘Swing Vote’ 3 out of 4 stars, ‘X-Files: I want to believe’ 3 1/2 stars out of 4, and pounded ‘Step Brothers’ with 1 1/2 stars. When will this madness end?
