Taxi Driver - brilliant

Wolf of Wall Street - brilliant

The Irishman

Casino - Very good, but not brilliant

Show me a better Director than a Scorcese and I’ll show you a liar

You're right lad. Those without a comment I've not watched.

Don't forget Shutter Island

And I'd put Gangs Of New York ahead of Mean Streets, never really got into that one though De Niro was good in it

The Irishman.

Just not very good.

The best thing in it was bloody Everyone Loves Raymond bloke...

Too weird with the de-ageing cgi too, nah, it were crap. Really wanted to like it but it were biz.

And Mean Streets is a masterpiece - that's fucking acting, The Irishman was talking and pulling faces - Stephen Graham is rubbish. Rubbish.

Thought The Irishman was ok but not as good as the reviews have been saying.

Revelation this weekend was I watched the latest Bladerunner - amazing! Loved it, and I’ve always hated the original. 

Finally watched Adventureland - really enjoy it as well, but I’m a sucker for 80s coming of age films; if you haven’t seen the Way Way Back, please do.

the original blade runner is cool , it were the (admittedly good) computer game that i cant 'do'. i thought the 2049 sequel were cool as well, didnt seem to 'hype' though, like the original didnt. Bit of a shame. 

Ang Lee's 'the Ice Storm' is a mad Adventureland type film. but its about swingers in the 70s. pretty stark though.

i remember Lymelyfe (prod. scorsese) ; with mcauley culkin's brothers in ; were pretty similar to that.. 

both originally books, but i've not read them..

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.... meh 5/10.

Great cast, fantastic sets and nostalgia of the late 60's, but peel that back and the actual story is dull and piss weak.

Not even close to Tarantino finest work.

That’s disappointing to hear.

Andy Murray documentary i thoroughly enjoyed, a lot of it is about sports rehab so it’s right up my strasse.

Feeling skeptical, nostalgic and intrigued in equal measure. Comes across like a horror film!

Yeah he’s a proper top athlete I like him a lot. Tennis players are iron men. 
 

Fuckin hell where is Bill Murray? Is that kid from stranger things purposely trying to get himself typecast?

His whole back up team seem proper sound as well. Some house he's got! 

I think there will be cameos but I'm surprised it really doesn't have comedy tones.

It’s neither here nor there. Either go comedy or horror, I can’t decide what its going for

I wonder if the way that loose sequel with the female Ghostbusters went down has put them off going slapstick.

Could be a red herring trailer and end up being an absolute romp but doesn't look like it.
