Casino feels like a parody of a Scorsese film

Why did he stuff his entire playlist into the film? So many songs play some for so little it becomes comical at points. still a solid film though, casinofags who think its better than Goodfellas are delusional

De Niro likes a good cuck film

>casinofags who think its better than Goodfellas are delusional

But it legitimately is better than Goodfellas. The story is more interesting and the movie itself also was more stylistic than Goodfellas. The music is also much better.

how to spot a pleb, the post

>the story is more interesting
How in the fuck? Goodfellas is based off real events and people. The whole vibe of goodfellas gave me this weird feeling in my gut like I was actually there.

this is now a cold hards fact thread

I don't think it's better than Goodfellas but it's still pretty good, you jew muddafucka you.

>casinofags who think its better than Goodfellas are delusional
They're just contrarians, no one actually believes that

Goodfellas us better because it had a central character with an arc, casino is just 'some stuff happens ehh'

>Goodfellas is based off real events and people
Spoiler alert: So was Casino, and the events that transpired in Casino was in my opinion much more interesting. I like mob movies as much as the next guy, but Casino was mob-esque while not really technically being a real mob movie.

Half of the story in Casino is about his retarded cunt wife

lets not forget that steadycam shot where he's funny like a clown until at last he had truly become a good fella and the wolf of wallstreet on the day of his daughter's wedding

Half of the story in Goodfellas is about his retarded cunt wife. Difference is Ginger in Casino actually had relevance since it contributed to their downfall.

I noticed this on my most recent rewatch as well. Nearly every scene transition opens with a song slamming in and some narration starting. It feels very much like Scorcese parody.

Casino > Goodfellas

Goodfellas is more nostalgic, it feels more lovingly made. It fills you with more joy and sentimentality. In that sense, it's more beautiful. It's a classical film, small in overall scope but with well designed characters and obvious motivations. It's a response to the over written and boring mob movies of the 70s and 80s like the Godfather. It's possibly the most influential movie of all time.


Casino is a much deeper but less satisfying film. It's about man's fall from grace, a city of sin and debauchery collapsing upon itself like Sodom. The characters are less likeable and more cynical about life. It has no loving emotions, only pain and cold reality. It's a more mature film, one that pulls no punches and is willing to embrace the violent, nihilistic reality of the mafia.


If I were to show someone one of the films who had never seen either, I would show them Goodfellas. However, Casino is more complex and powerful in my opinion.

Adulthood is realising casino is better

>tfw joe pesci and robert deniro are old as fuck and frank vincent is already dead
I'm scared guys

That and they say "fuck" a lot.

Only movie in which the amount of swearing took me out of the movie. It felt like Scorsese was going for a record.

You are either a troll or a fucking idiot to criticise this film. It is neither better or worse than Goodfellas, it is merely different.

The films are like bookends, with Goodfellas depicting the birth of the golden era of the Mafia, and Casino showing the beginning of the end of it.

It will be a real shame Vincent not being in The Irishman. Unless he already shot some secret scenes somehow.

Solid post, but the Godfather films aren't boring. They are a romanticized depiction of the mafia because they are first and foremost a family drama that is set around highly influential people within the mafia. This contrasts with Goodfellas and Casino, but it doesn't make it a more boring set of films.

Scorsese hasn't made a good film in forty years.

thanks for the update

This edgelord meme again? Isn't there a Zac Snyder thread somewhere you should be haunting? He has not made a bad film yet.

Some are less compelling, or appeal to a niche audience like Silence, but all are at the least "good" even if not all are great.

Please, make me laugh and tell me what you consider a 'good' film.

Taxi Driver

How is shutter island not a good film in comparison?

Films don't have to be ground breaking, genre shattering and experimental to be good.

You are a fucking idiot if you think Taxi driver was the last good film he made, Goodfellas and Casino are masterpieces, regardless of what you think.

Some people still believe the earth is flat, but there is a consensus of their more intelligent and higher educated peers who know better.

>CHEATERS JUSTICE

The scene where the midget rails Sharon Stone is the funniest thing I've ever seen. Casino >>> Goodfaggots.

Both are shit, as is every movie with heavy narration with no in-film reason. Taxi Driver did it right.
