Thumbs up for this.

According to the post, it will feature co-hosts Christy Lemire and Elvis Mitchell so other than name and producing, I don’t know what Ebert will be doing with the movie. I’m happy to see this format of a movie review show survived and though the final season of At the Movies Michael Phillips and A. O. Scott was OK, it definitely has one foot in the grave without Richard Roper and Ebert’s involvement.

Even though our entertainment choices are overcrowded with Internet, video, cable, on demand, and everything else, I think there has to be room for a movie review show that isn’t a fawning infotainment-style program that is already out there.

That’s good news! Also, I remember her from when the show rotated co hosts. She’s purty!
