With the departure of Roger Ebert and Richard Roeper from their iconic film review show, At the Movies was recently revamped and relaunched with new hosts and a new format. Now starring Ben Lyons and Ben Mankiewicz, the show has a decidedly more “pop culture” feel to it, and features a segment wherein three guests are invited to discuss a movie or two.
Obviously, to attempt to fill the shoes of Siskel & Ebert, Ebert & Roeper, or even Roeper & Friends is an audacious undertaking. But, we’re happy to report that our very own Editor in Chief, Matt Atchity, was invited to participate in the show’s Critics Roundup segment. In the first of what we hope to be many appearances, Matt takes part in a brief discussion about Righteous Kill in the very next episode, scheduled to air on Sunday, September 21st. Nice job, Matt!
