« Don't recall ever typing that everyone considers it a masterpiece. Just said that "people do". Nowhere does that indicate that EVERYONE does. »
This is not what I said. I said that your statement seemed to imply that every people who call it a masterpiece do it simply because it’s Scorsese working with Pesci, Pacino and De Niro. I say that in my case, at least, it’s wrong. I don’t remember calling it a masterpiece before seeing it.
« I'm simply stating that if it weren't for Scorsese, De Niro, Pesci and Pachino, people wouldn't consider it a masterpiece. »
Here again, I disagree. It helps, sure, but I would have loved it just as much if other actors were there. This is me, so I can say with 100% certainty that your statement does not apply to at least one person.

Okay, yes, I give you that if this actually happened (I just haven’t witnessed it myself, not calling you a liar or anything), I see who your statement concerns.
