- Roger Ebert: [reviewing "The Edge"] Two people and a bear in the wilderness. Now what's wrong with that?
- Gene Siskel: Uh...
- Roger Ebert: What's wrong with that if the people are interesting and if the bear is interesting?
- Gene Siskel: Uh, the bear wasn't interesting, number one.
- Roger Ebert: Oh, it's a real bear, especially when it was chasing them.
- Gene Siskel: It's a toss-up- oh, good. As opposed to hibernating? It's a real toss-up between who's more interesting: Baldwin or the bear.
- Roger Ebert: Oh, that's just a, that's just a cheap shot. Come on.
- Gene Siskel: It isn't- it's intended to be cheap, because he is boring.
- Roger Ebert: Well, it WAS cheap, so you succeeded.
