Ebert's Law

Film critic Roger Ebert's philosophy to criticizing works: "It's not what it's about, it's HOW it's about it."

This applies to any type of work, be it films, TV shows, music, books, etc.

Occasionally an unsuspecting innocent will stumble into a movie like this and send me an anguished postcard, asking how I could possibly give a favorable review to such trash. My stock response is Ebert's Law, which reads: A movie is not about what it is about. It is about how it is about it. -- Roger Ebert

The Siskel and Ebert

When hooking up with a girl, you insert one thumb in her anus and the other in her vagina. (Two thumbs up!)

Krishelz told me that Holly was feeling kinky so he gave her The Siskel and Ebert!

To stick one's thumbs up another person's butthole.

If I were you, I'd give this definition two thumbs up.
