yeah, he had numerous collections of reviews, i would read page after page, not focusing on a particular movie. I worked at a video store so had lots of time to read
these are two that i remember:

he also turned me on to Pauline Kael.

Also i remember once he lost his voice, he started writing about more than films on his blog. I didnt read much i just remember that he had some really good essays that were not about films and i liked pretty much every point he had made (cant remember what they were about now)

Roger Ebert's Book of Film is an anthology with a lot of great writing about Old Hollywood (and New as well). And since they're mostly excerpts, the good ones will make you want to read the full books.
