I just recently watched Dark City, which he named the best film of 1998 and a film I've been waiting a while to get around to. It blew me away, I can't believe the film hasn't had more praise like Ebert's. He realized at the time too that it would grow into a cult film, one which now contains a commentary track from Ebert himself.

Ebert also repeatedly championed Street Smart and Morgan Freeman's brilliant performance in that movie. This helped Freeman win his first Oscar nomination.

It may be dumb but I first got to know Ebert as an animated colleague to Jay Sherman's The Critic and have loved him ever since
