Bunch of savages!

[NeoNical]

Never seen King of Comedy myself sadly. That, Who's That Knocking At My Door, Kundun, After Hours, and New York, New York are the only Scorsese films that I haven't seen (Other than his shorts and documentaries which I haven't seen anything yes I know).

WAC, Criterion, Shout, I don't care, I just want the rest of the early Scorsese films on Blu-ray.

Who's Knocking at My Door, Boxcar Bertha and Bringing Up The Dead need releases. In case of BB a new release that's not limited.

Ah, then you get a pass. Watch it when you can. His comedies are brilliant. After Hours is one of my favorite films of all time.

I say get on After Hours and King of Comedy! Those are great, and some of my favorites!

Amazingly, I've never seen The King of Comedy either. I finally recently saw The Color of Money and I had to add that one to my list because I liked it so much. But yes, I must watch TKOC asap.

[jjhunsecker]

OK, I'll play

Raging Bull
Goodfellas
Taxi Driver
After Hours
Casino
The Irishman
The Departed
King of Comedy
The Last Temptation of Christ
The Age of Innocence (the first film my wife and I ever saw together)

Special mention to two of the greatest music films ever : The Last Waltz and Shine a Light

Sorry, I only have a Top 2 and after that it's a crapshoot and hard to rank because there are so many good ones:

1. KUNDUN
2. THE AGE OF INNOCENCE


Top 2 WORST Scorsese movies (sorry to their fans!):

1. SHUTTER ISLAND
2. NEW YORK, NEW YORK

I've seen most Scorsese films but never given a thought to how I'd rank them - so a "Top 2" works for me for the same reason.

Genuinely, the two works I've most enjoyed are:

1. Casino
2. My Voyage to Italy

Has anyone here seen SILENCE from 2016? I have yet to see it, but I'm very curious about it.

I picked it up as a blind-buy about a month ago after watching Under the Silver Lake and being especially impressed with Andrew Garfield - whom I knew very little about. As he plays one of the leads in Silence, it seemed like a good time to order. Of course, I haven't got around to it yet...

Does anybody else find the Criterion website frustrating to browse through? Is there a way to list the titles from latest release to oldest?

Wouldn't a reverse sort by spine number be a good approximation?

[UnionJackMix]

I fear my Jacques Demy set will be cancelled from my DeepDiscount order made during their sale+discount code.

I guess so.

Silence is a hell of an achievement and probably the very hardest Scorsese film to watch. I can't really say I liked it or will ever gird myself to watch it again, but I also remember it intensely. Something tells me Scorsese would be very happy with that reaction.

I’m in. Best review ever in terms of recommending a movie to ME!
