I would rather watch any Marvel film than this snoozefest.


No wonder Scorsese is lashing out at comic book films, deep down he knows his films are not as good and so won't be making the same money nor have the same level of success as the Marvel films. They are better, more entertaining and connect with far more people. This new film of his is just another retread of films he has done before like Goodfellas and Casino, same formula.

The fact that people actually think like you is really, really sad. The fact that someone out there is saying "Thor 2 is better than Goodfellas" is really, really sad.

reply

THAT IS NOT WHAT HE SAID.

“deep down he knows his films are not as good...”

“...Marvel films...are better, more entertaining and connect with far more people.”

Well, except it is sorta what he is saying. Thor 2 is a marvel movie, therefore he’s saying Thor 2 is better than Goodfellas.

reply

It's what was inferred.

reply

That's what he meant and you freaking know it.. 🙄

NO I DIDNT/DONT...I WOULD RATHER WATCH ANY MARVEL FILM OVER THE IRISHMAN.I AGREE WITH THE OP...YES,EVEN THE DREADED THOR 2:THE DARK WORLD...COMIC ACTION,NATALIE PORTMAN,MANAGABLE RUN TIME,A PIECE OF THE MCU PUZZLE...AS OPPOSED TO A BLOATED,MISCAST,BORING,LAZY,OUT OF TIME/DATE,BAD BAD BAD CGI FILLED THE IRISHMAN...IM SURE THERE IS A GOOD MOVIE IN THERE SOMEWHERE WITH SOME TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE SIZED EDITS,BUT EVEN THEN...ITS A ONE WATCH FLICK THANKS TO ITS SUBJECT MANNER.🙂

I was bored with the Irishman, I genuinely didn’t like it however I agree on being able to enjoy an Oscar drama and blockbusters in their own way.

Both type of films are good both have their good stuff and their crap.

I loved Endgame and Aladdin very much but I also loved Ford V Ferrari and Knives out.

My goodness youngin'...….Goodfellas is my #1 movie of all-time. Marvel movies aren't even cinema. They are just like video games and are made that way because of the younger generation cannot focus more than a few minutes at a time. Having to follow a tight script is too much for them. They need ACTION ACTION ACTION. I weep for the future.

reply

This isn't the politics part of the forum.

reply

They are the ones that mixes shit together, so you think you can forgive me for my post?

reply

You're forgiven.

I would rather watch a Scorsese movie than some Marvel spectacle.

reply

I grew tired of movies about east-coast Italian guys whacking each other long ago; however, I'd give this a chance before I waste another two hours on some comic book chasing-and-fighting, chasing-and-fighting crap again.

reply

I was considering not watching it, didn't think I wanted another Scorsese gangster film, but I was dead wrong.

reply

The first time I watched it wasn't as good as the second. Some movies are like that.
