Roger Ebert Reckons He Knows Why Theaters Failed to Gather an Audience in 2011

By nerdreactor on  From nerdreactor.com
Well, apparently not only did 2011 get trumped by 2010 in terms of audience numbers, but it had the smallest movie audience since 1995! Roger Ebert, in an article called, “I’ll tell you why movie revenue is dropping…”, gives 6 very logical reasons for movies not hooking the customers in like they used to. 1. An absence of a must-see movie like “The Dark Knight”, and “Avatar”. I guess we’ll find out what happens in 2012 when “The Dark Knight Rises” again to take our movie money. 2. Ticket...Read Full Story

By fusedfilm on  From fusedfilm.com
As 2011 comes to a close, we are getting a flood of top lists coming from the best film critics and aficionados in the business. One of them coming from Chicago Sun-Times critic Roger Ebert. As usual, this list contains some of the biggest indie flicks, under appreciated foreign films, and explosive blockbusters. While his number one film is an obscure one, Ebert has managed to add films like Drive, The Tree of Life, Shame, Midnight in Paris, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 to...Read Full Story

Roger Ebert: “I’ll tell you why movie revenue is dropping…”

By reelclerk on  From cityoffilms.com
Via his blog , Roger Ebert makes some spot on points about the current state of movie revenue, his theories are listed below.  Many of the ideas he gives are nothing new, but it’s nice to see someone who  knows what they are talking about actually step up and talk about it.  Maybe we will see some changes in the New Year?  Or maybe direct entertainment will continue to be a force to be reckoned with. He says: Box office revenue at movie theaters “lagged far behind 2010,” an article by the...Read Full Story

The Best Films of 2011 by Roger Ebert

By simo0998 on  From fassinatingfassbender.com
Shame #2 Michael Fassbender's brave, uncompromising performance is at the center of Steve McQueen's merciless film about sex addiction. He's a loner with a good job, who avoids relationships because of his obsession with sex. He is driven to experience multiple orgasms every day. His shame is masked in privacy. He wants no witnesses to his hookers, his pornography, his masturbation. Does he fear he is incapable of ordinary human contact? There isn't the slightest suggestion he experiences...Read Full Story

Roger Ebert writes on Twitter: "Each and every change to my Twitter page is a Bad Idea. Did they go berserk?" I'll paraphrase in terms that software developers will understand. "It burns my braincells when you guys move stuff around for no good reason." He's totally right. For example. I use a new version of a famous browser on one of my servers. No choice, because I deployed the server after the old version expired. They moved...

Are videogames art? What's your reaction to that question? For me it's always a weary groan of resignation, followed by skipping the rest of the article. Perhaps that's arrogance, because for a sizeable chunk of the gaming audience it is a very big deal indeed, and a topic that won't go away. When there's a flashpoint, such as a couple of articles by the film critic Roger Ebert, no one could miss the storm. But whether games are art is not a...

It's getting closer to the end of 2011, so in addition to the several videos looking back at this year in film, there will also be several year-end lists coming our way looking at the best and the worst of 2011.

Hollywood box office numbers are down significantly from 2010. Movie attendance is at its lowest rate in 16 years. Piracy and file-sharing seems to be getting plenty of blame. But Roger Ebert isn’t buying it. Nor is he buying this Fishie’s contention that a glut of crap movies is at fault. On his blog, Ebert argues that while 2011 lacked an Avatar to boost box office numbers, the theater experience is to blame for Hollywood’s poor showing...

Roger Ebert explains why movie revenue is dropping, and includes the usual suspects: no major releases, prices, streaming, theater experience, etc. The myth that small-town moviegoers don't like "art movies" is undercut by Netflix's viewing results; the third most popular movie on Dec. 28 on Netflix was "Certified Copy," by the Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami. You've heard of him? In fourth place--French director Alain Corneau's "Love Crime...
