Ebert & Roeper to Leave At the Movies

Another year hosting the influential review show At the Movies With Ebert & Roeper?
Roger Ebert and Richard Roeper are giving that a big thumbs-down.
The two Chicago-based film reviewers won't be returning next season, reports the Associated Press.
Roeper said it was because he couldn't come to an agreement on a contract extension with Disney-ABC, and Ebert, whose announcement followed that of his colleague's, said in an e-mail that Disney-ABC Domestic Television had decided to take the program "in a new direction" and he won't be associated with it.

Film critic Roger Ebert, who has been fighting a lengthy battle with cancer, re-entered the hospital Thursday, he announced on his Web site.
"I'll have another surgery, which I hope will solve some problems I've still been living with," writes the Chicago-based reviewer, 65. "I'll be in hospital for awhile (nothing like last time, I trust!)."
He adds: "I plan to return full-time as soon as possible."
