“ and it's not hard to imagine there being sour grapes that the movie made over $1 billion whereas The Irishman was mostly forgotten after it debuted on Netflix last year. ”

Mostly forgotten about...?

Like I said before he is allowed to have his opinion, but it seems very short sighted of Marty who is a so called lover of film to discredit an entire genre of film.

@WakandanQueen - The true definition for Cinema is as follows:

(a theater where movies are shown for public entertainment; a movie theater.)

By that standpoint the Irishmen is not Cinema.

@SonOfAGif - And that is exactly why Scorcese has been attacking Marvel Studios' films. The Irishman didn't get produced by a major traditional studio, so he was forced to partner with Netflix, which ironically is the TRUE threat to "cinema" as we now know it. Movies like his and other recent streaming releases like Roma have been accepted as cinematic films deserving of major awards, when in fact they are closer to prestige TV. These movies are damaging the business of cinema just as early TV did in the 1950s and 1960s.


When the audience can stay home, watch The Irishman and other Oscar contenders without paying a cent more than they already do for their streaming subscriptions, theaters will lose millions (or billions) in revenue. Eventually, inevitably, many chains will go under, and filmmakers like Scorcese will be directly to blame for destroying the industry they claim to love. He either knows this or he's delusional.

@Skrull - He knows this. But he is old and knows his time is coming. So he is so self centered and egotistical that he would rather brainwash people to watch the last of his films before he passes away instead of expressing his concern for streaming services.

Movies like Endgame and Joker are keeping Cinema alive. It's not our fault that studios are pumping out garbage films like Office Christmas Party and expect us to see the next film in their rosters.

He's probably tired of being asked questions about superhero movies instead of discussing the Irishman that he's become dismissive and aggravated

I get it. It’s fine
I DID watch the film in its entirety and that basically sums up my review.
