Want to be moved, quite possibly to tears? Then watch this preview footage of the courageous and infallible Roger Ebert on today's Oprah. In the clip, he debuts his new computerized voice for his equally amazing wife, Chaz Hammelsmith Ebert, who hasn't heard him speak since July 1, 2006.
And it totally sounds like Roger Ebert. It's even cooler and more moving than Ebertar! The effect was achieved by using audio from the many DVD commentary tracks Ebert has done over the years, though we wouldn't be surprised if they sampled a bit from his legendary catfights with Gene Siskel, just for added verisimilitude.
