>Ayo lemme get two of the best actors available right now, and then narrate over 90% of the movie instead of building meaningful dialogue
What did Scorsese mean by this?

>narrate over 90% of the movie
I don't like that shit either, but don't exaggerate.

People liked that in Goodfellas, so...
>>83499496
Goodfellas had nowhere near this amount of narration.
>>83499465
It's an exaggeration, but this film has a shit ton of narration, eclipsing Goodfellas.

You're that fucking butthurt plebfellas faggot from the other thread. It's incredible you're so asspained by people pointing out Casino>Plebfellas that you made an entirely new thread. I always love it when someone gets so obliterated in one thread that they bugout and make a strawman thread imminently.

The narration is the reason this 3 hour movie feels like 1.5

>Casino>Plebfellas
Not that guy, but this is wrong.

This.
I like how a bunch of youtube film school essay watching high schoolers on a Taiwanese Mechanical Locksmithing site are all experts to say an actual living legend was pulling hackshit by going with a stylistic choice to condense as much information about a movie that takes place over 30 years with a revolving door of characters/plots/events.
Also Casino > Goodfellas AND Raging Bull.
>>83499671
>over 30 years
Really? I thought it was like 10 years from the mid 70s to mid 80s?

I'm not the "faggot from the other thread", it appears there are more people who think similarly. And retards like you will keep pretending this low point in Scorsese filmography is better than Goodfellas.
