48. "RE: Wrong. If Scorcese directed it, you'd call it brilliant." In response to In response to 27
I haven't even talked about Scorsese outside of this thread yet. You sound angry with the guy.
>Serious, y'all be wilin' with the automatic >praise for anything Scorcese makes.
word? maybe they just like it. i havent even said more than one post yet.
>A lot of his shit be mediocre, really.
okay.
>Empty? > >Empty? > >You mean like a movie about a guy who owns a Casino and >can't keep his slut ass wife from running around? you mean a >movie about a guy who owns a Casino who has an acquaintance >who goes too far? > >How about that for empty? >
dude, if you can put any movie into that type of tone and make it "sound" empty also.
>That explained EVERYTHING that Lucas did the entire >movie. > >Perfectly.
Ok. In your words it'd be "You mean like a movie about a guy who owns a drug business and ends up snitching? You mean a movie about a guy who was poor and became rich and then the police showed up? "
>Lol. Are you fucking serious? > >a)there are plenty of movies about gambling and shit
once again, there are plenty of movies about uh, "human beings and shit" too. everytime you talk about somethin you like you seem to be able to break it down. i respect you for that, but when it comes to shit you dont like you attack people who disagree and simplify everything about that film.
>b)One of your friends in this very post said they >liked it "even though it was over the top."
who?
>So how can it be BOTH "over the top" and "documentary-like?"
when did i say it wsa over the top?
>It has nothing to do with the setting.
no, it has to do with the director right?
>Hell, 'Bugsy' was about gambling and casinos and shit too, >and I fucking loved that.
