the 45 minutes or so from the awards dinner to Hoffa gettin got was probably the most well acted and well shot period from any movie I've seen this year.

the tension was off the charts. I'd only rank the last 30 minutes of Joker up there with it from this year's catalog

i can’t think of anything outside of classics from the past (Godfather 1&2, GoodFellas, The Departed, etc.) that have this sequence beat.

recent bias probably my favorite sequence of any Scorsese movie

If it wins Best Picture at the Oscars it will be because of that 45 minutes to an hour of godly film making. :whew:

I thought this movie was good but :dead: at people comparing it to "Goodfellas" and "Casino'. That's some prisoner-of-the-moment type shyt.

Best movie of the year is still "Parasite" to me. :manny:

Fred.

yeah bro I’m reading this shyt like “did we watch the same movie?” :dead:

movie was incredible but slow down

Saying the movie isn't as good as Goodfellas is no slight considering Goodfellas is a masterpiece in every sense of the word

I didn't mean for it to be a slight but it's not the compliment you're making it out to be, either.

The sole reason I mentioned "Goodfellas" and "Casino" is because other people made the comparison. Otherwise I'd never think to mention this in the same sentence as those two.

Hell, I don't even put this on the same level as "Parasite", which isn't even Bong Joon Ho's best movie. This shyt is cool but cats are ODing with it.

Fred.
