I respected his reviews, even if I didn't always agree with them.
Same here. I had the pleasure of meeting him back in 2001, while I was in Chicago. I told him he inspired me to be a writer and he responded with, "This is a special occasion. Usually people tell me that I inspired them to watch movies and critique things." Made me feel good.
BTW, the last sentence of his blog is "I'll see you at the movies". That really hit me right in the feels, moreso now since he posted it two days ago.
