Amy has kept a movie ticket stub diary since age 12. She believes in the power of Chris Carter and Cate Blanchett and watching movies in a theatre.

Before audiences had access to innumerate voices and professed authority on cinema via the internet, they relied on the thumb gauge of film critics Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert. It might surprise some fans to learn that the passionate pair were journalists, not movie buffs. The non-cinephiles began their movie-reviewing careers as rival critics at Chicago newspapers, with Siskel writing for The Chicago Tribune and Ebert for The Chicago Sun-Times.

Release Date November 26, 1975 Cast Gene Siskel , Roger Ebert , Jeffrey Lyons , Neal Gabler , Michael Medved , John Iltis Main Genre Talk Show Seasons 6 10 'Speed 2: Cruise Control' Siskel: Thumbs up, Ebert: Thumbs up In the sequel to the Keanu Reeves/Sandra Bullock blockbuster Speed, Speed 2: Cruise Control trades an unstoppable city bus for an unstoppable luxury cruise ship.

8 Blue Velvet Siskel: Thumbs up, Ebert: Thumbs down David Lynch's neo-noir thriller Blue Velvet stars frequent collaborator Kyle MacLachlan as Jeffrey Beaumont, a man who returns home and finds a severed ear. He joins forces with Sandy and begins to spy on a mysterious lounge singer, Dorothy Vallens , who is somehow tied to the ear. Amid Jeffrey's amateur sleuthing, he encounters Frank Booth , a drug-dealing maniac who answers to no one.

6 Jaws: The Revenge Siskel: Thumbs down, Ebert: Thumbs down A hungry great white shark meanders into the shallow waters of Amity Island in Jaws, the 1975 masterpiece by young Steven Spielberg, a prolific visionary and singular talent. After the monumental success and exhilarating thrill of Jaws, several sequels followed. In Jaws: The Revenge, a fourth toothy aquatic beast returns to the shores of Amity Island to finish what began many sharks ago.

4 'Fargo' Siskel: Thumbs up, Ebert: Thumbs up The Coen brothers' frozen caper, Fargo, stars William H. Macy as anxious car sales manager Jerry Lundegaard, who has amassed an enormous debt he cannot repay. Jerry devises an ill-conceived extortion plot involving the kidnapping of his wife, which backfires like one of the Cutlass Ciera sedans on his father-in-law's car lot.

2 'North' Siskel: Thumbs down, Ebert: Thumbs down North is a movie about a gifted child named North who decides to divorce his neglectful, unappreciative parents. Following a judgment by the court, North embarks on an adventure to find parental replacements. The movie was a box office disaster and can be found on numerous lists featuring the "Worst Movies Ever Made."
