Movies Ebert and Roeper hated that you loved.......

Equipose, you got whooshed. I like Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. It’s a wacky, insane film. And, Ebert is one of the critics whose recommendations I value, even if I don’t always agree. He’s got a solid point of view, and he’s a good bellweather.

But some people take Ebert as the be-all and end-all of good taste in films; that just ain’t so.

I thought “whooshed” was when someone misses something that’s clear. You said, in its entierty:

If you ever wanna laugh at Ebert, go watch the film that he wrote the script for. You’ll find it tough to take the fat man seriously after watching Beyond the Valley of the Dolls.

And I’m supposed to know from that that you like Ebert and BTVOTD, and value Ebert’s recommendations?

I wasn’t whoosed. You were unclear, and rude to Ebert.

Who takes Ebert as the “be-all and end-all” of good taste in films? Address them directly, by name.
