I'm glad that my lampooning of Ebert's wardrobe has caught on, although I'm not sure which sci-fi reference is more embarrasing for the user, 70's Doctor Who or Star Trek: Nemesis.
And yeah..."Ebertfest?" Lame!

[Image] CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) - Roger Ebert says he'll have to skip this year's Ebertfest film festival after breaking a hip.
The 65-year-old movie critic writes on his blog on the Chicago Sun-Times' Web site that his doctors have told him he should remain in a Chicago hospital rather than travel to Urbana-Champaign for the 10th annual festival, which runs through Sunday.
Ebert is recovering from minor hip surgery following a recent fall.
He's had a series of cancer-related surgeries the past few years. One left him unable to speak, but he continues to write movie reviews.
"Ebert to skip Ebertfest (worst name for a film festival ever)"
