I've disagreed with Ebert quite a bit over the years, but there isn't a single movie critic I look forward to reading each week more than him. And I also give him credit for putting his money where his mouth is (no pun intended) by actually writing a screenplay in the late 60s, even though it turned into one of the worst movies of all time. And yes, I knew he hadn't been well for years and had lost the ability to speak and eat solid foods, but that picture floored me when I saw it the other day.
