    • Trivia
      This is the second time Hoop Dreams (1994) was reviewed on the show, one of the rare times that a movie was reviewed twice. It was later selected on the "Best of 1994" episode as the best film of the year by both Siskel and Ebert.
    • Quotes

      Gene Siskel - Host: [reviewing "The Specialist"] Of course, the real fireworks that people want to see are the sex scenes between Stallone and Stone. And we DO catch them naked in a shower for about a minute, as they show their great bodies.

      [...]

      Gene Siskel - Host: By the way, that one minute of nudity really isn't worth sitting through the deadly dull action of "The Specialist". During the whole picture, I wanted Stallone to talk faster and drop his "Rambo" persona in favor of something contemporary. You know, maybe he and James Woods should've switched roles. I wonder what James Woods looks like in the shower.

      Roger Ebert - Host: Uh, I don't, frankly. But, you know...

      Gene Siskel - Host: You know how I mean that.
