Star Trek Into Darkness
Less a classic "Star Trek" adventure than a Star Trek-flavored action flick, shot in the frenzied, handheld, cut-cut-cut style that’s become Hollywood’s norm, director J.J.…
An invitation from The Ebert Club
Dear Movie Lover,
My main site and all its movie reviews, and my blog of course, are free: No paywall. But the site doesn't pay for itself. With your membership in The Ebert Club, you'll help to support my additional offerings. For example, the weekly Club Newsletter, which in March 2011 celebrated its first year. You'll also support the editing and posting of the Far-Flung Correspondents, special WebPages which I tweet, and other stuff.
An annual Club membership is just $10, for which you'll receive The Ebert Club Newsletter every week. The Newsletter is not a casual publication. Inside its surprisingly large and varied issues, you'll find advance news and trailers and exclusive photos, special pages and unique web discoveries, contributions from club members, treasures from the Ebert archives, complete free legal movies you can view online, our weekly collection of incredible B-movie trailers, a private discussion area, and whatever else we find. All password-protected, for Club Members only.
The Newsletter also provides members with advance notice of Ebertfest tickets going on sale; useful for those who can attend, as the passes sell out quickly every year. You'll be the first to learn of the annual film selections for Ebertfest too, and will be invited to the meet-and-greet breakfast for Club members hosted by Chaz and me. You'll also be able to mail order the coveted Ebertfest T-shirt, based on a sketch of mine.
Marie Haws, a gifted professional artist, is our Club Secretary and Newsletter Editor.
With your membership, you'll be helping to support this site. Every penny of your membership will be used directly to improve the site.
Basic membership is $10 annually. If you choose, you may become a Celluloid Member for $15, or a Premiere Member for $20. Click below if you'd like to join us. When you join, Marie will send out a notice telling you how to log in, and giving you access to all the newsletters already published. If you don't hear from her within 20 hours, write the club at ebertclub@gmail.com
Oh, and we get some queries about PayPal. If you have a PayPal account associated with the credit card you are trying to use, PayPal will force you to login and then you can use that card to pay.
There's a little button underneath the PayPal that says "Pay using your credit and debit card." It's not well marked, but you can also pay that way.
Thank you,
Roger
