It's pretty funny that he exists.  I wonder what his favourite movie is.  When I was more young I used to think he was Ebert.  What is your opinion?

he was the exuberant Capital Pictures president in Barton Fink.

Uh, I think the role to mention would be that he played President Ebert in Godzilla, the not-so-subtle jab at Siskel and Ebert.  And it also proves that he does look like Ebert a bit, and that Sleuth is not alone in his thoughts.

Thanks Matt, I'll be there for you when you need it.


Also, he's always looked like ebert not just, Godzilla

another guy who kinda looks like Ebert: Michael Jackson in a fat mayor suit in his movie "ghosts", a collaboration with stephen king and stanley winston.

A fantastic performance in a great movie.
Well, I've got news for you pal, you ain't leadin' but two things: Jack and shit . . . and Jack just left town.

Yeah but when the screenplay called for a President Ebert character, the makers must've said something along the lines of, "Let's get that one guy who always looks like Ebert."  So he's obviously the go-to guy to play Ebert.

How silly of me.  Of course it's obvious...since you said it and all.  I'm just fascinated because I can't imagine by what set of standards you based your opinion on.  I'm always open to new ways of seeing things.  Perhaps you could enlighten me on the similarities.
