Name your favorite Scorsese film, ready? Go!
I never enjoyed a movie as much as WOLF OF WALL STREET
I like every film of he's... specially some of the underrated one's color of money, after hours, bring out the dead... Even films like New York New York & Boxcar bretha which were like Scorsese's tribute to American musicals and B grade cinema
@@user-wx8mi1pd6g Absolutely
Goodfellas
After Hours. Though, I love all his work.
As far back as I could remember, I‘ve always loved Martin Scorsese movies
You are so funny
Luis Sierra wha...what do you mean funny? Funny how??
@@LuisSierra42 does he make u laugh ? He's here to muse u ?
To me being part of Martin Scorsese's crew was better than being President of the United States.
@@LuisSierra42 OK Boomer
70' taxi driver
80' raging bull
90' goodfellas
2000' the departed
2010' the wolf of wall street
the king of all decades
And now the Irishman too!
Shutter island?
Silence was king of 2010s
@@texasfinesse6467 Silence! The Wolf of Wall Street was awesome! (Get the pun?)
@@TutankhamaruCapac what is it?
I love all of his MCU (Martin Cinematic Universe)
😂😂😂
Yeah who needs the marvel cinematic universe when you have the Martin cinematic Universe
Goodfellas vs. Avengers.....Marty’s boys would kick their butts
illaveyoubutler2 well we got to help Marty’s guys they can’t do it alone you know
@Mohamed Ashian Iron Man laughs at Tommy DeVito, Marty’s boys won’t need no help
These are the directors who make movies for pleasure not for box-office.
Absolutely! Not only for the pleasure but also for the pure passion for their craft.
lilmil MARVEL.
lilmil ok DC too then. He’s right actually about marvel, they are just comic book movies with big budgets. Marvel had early on success which is fading because they are making too much movies. Captain marvel, doctor sleep and avengers endgame was terrible. I honestly walked out on endgame because it was boring, uninteresting fights and conversations was just too much. No one is gonna remember these movies in a decade but Goodfellas still stands the test of time to this day and will in future. Comic book movies just don’t have the emotional pull and investment. I mean do people really care if one of the avenger dies, i sure don’t. By the time we reach the intermission they already had killed a thousand people and destroyed half a country. That’s always the plot with changes so it doesn’t appear obvious. Of course they make it for the money man, look at the selling of merchandise and movie sequels. Scorsese never made a sequel, his work is always different and original. He’s very far ahead of his time. People just don’t get it.
Leonardo Kwak oh please. Endgame was terrible. Walked out halfway through the movie.
Lmao all these people hating on Marvel just because it's popular 😂
What fascinates me about Scorsese is that the way his career unfolded - unlike any other. Arguably, he made the best movie of the 70s, best movie of the 80s, best movie of the 90s and inbetween his most acclaimed movies he made less financially succesful documentaries and movies. I think that this is the reason why so many people adore him as a person, aside from his charisma. If he doesn't succeed, he persists, gets back up and proves himself again and again.
Hoovy Tube Taxi Driver: one of the best of the 70s.
Raging Bull: THE best of the 80s.
Goodfellas: most influential of the 90s.
The Departed: one of my personal favourites of the 2000s.
You can make the argument that The Departed, The Wolf of Wall Street and The Irishman were the best of the 2000s and 2010s.
@@linkbiff1054 best of the 70s / all time is The Godfather part I & II
@@jeda7343 Godfather 2 > or = to Taxi Driver > Godfather 1. Regardless I don't believe their is one best director ever. There are many greats it's like science there isn't one greatest scientist work builds upon previous mistakes.
@@josuem7398 watch the godfather saga version
That part about the music really spoke to me, whenever I listen to a song or a piece of music I immediately think of how it could be used cinematically. Honestly surprised Scorsese hasn’t done a musical yet considering he’s so good at marrying music and images.
Absolutely! The pacing in his films are just as thoughtful as a composer's symphony. Notice the way he conducts his hands, like he's leading an orchestra, 0:06 as the scene plays out. Wouldn't be surprised if there was a piece of music in his mind at that moment tied to that particular moment. 🎼🎶🎥🎬😊✌🏻
@Masked Movie Man I forgot about that one tbh but nonetheless would love to see him do ANOTHER one haha
I do that also and when I hear that song in a movie it makes my day.
He has
New York, New York (1977)
safe to say: the guys a cinema genius
The master himself
Just genius cinematic or not
the best of all time imo
I was slightly disappointed with "The Irishman," but then again "slightly disappointing Scorsese movie"= better than 95% of the other crap that I watch
@@AnnusMirabilus i wasnt disapointed at all. infact its my second favorite movie now. you have to be in the right mindset to watch it
@@LuisSierra42 Imagine the person who he calls his master. Satyajit Ray. Watch how he directs a film. My god. These 2 men are single handedly the geniuses of the last 7 decades
The Irishman is so poignant, moving, and such a mournful eulogy for the gangster genre. The last hour is one of Scorsese's finest moments and the final shot will forever be burned into my memory. This video perfectly encapsulates everything I love about his movies. Great job!
Thank you so much! The Irishman is definitely a fine work and sits well with the rest of his works. It's quite rewarding and awesome to see the work of a veteran filmmaker.
boring
This man's work are treasures. A part of my childhood.
Admired him, loved him. Can't wait for The Irishman.
Scorsese movies were your childhood?!!!! Epic!!! You're a real gangsta
@@AA-sn9lz he's my dad's childhood too. He even got to watch Taxi Driver when he was 14 years old in a theater. Imagine that!!
Love your guys's videos, especially this series! Here are some other filmmakers to consider doing a video on for this series:
- Tim Burton
- Alfred Hitchcock
- Steven Spielberg
- Guillermo del Toro
- Stanley Kubrick
- Spike Lee
- Edgar Wright
- David Fincher
- Paul Thomas Anderson
- The Coen Brothers
- Ridley Scott
- David Lynch
George Lucas
Richard linklater..
Maybe a european or asian director
@@emanuelporto9374 Akira Kurosawa
I'm gonna go watch The Irishman, watch The Irishman.
Can't wait. I believe it'll be on Netflix November 27th.
gonna see it in 18 hours in a theater, very happy
I'm gonna go watch IronMan
Seeing the Irishman cemented my appreciation for Scorsese, both as an artist, and just as a great human bean. He's kinda becoming a 'national treasure', if we still have such things.
Jimmy Two Times xD
That one long take from Goodfellas through the kitchen into the restaurant.. i always thought that it would be hard to retake it as it should be as natural as possible and manage to prevent any person unintentionally look into the camera
I saw a similar take recently in Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.. do UA-cam it.. it's in the second season.. quite an artistic take
Mrs Maisel has so many long shots
As far back as I remember, I always wanted to be...Martin Scorsese.
I Worked background on "The Aviator" shot in Montreal. 18 days on a Scorsese picture. It was the defining film experience of my life. To see him, the actors and the production company at work was magic. There were some special moments for me, but too much to share here!
Where else are you sharing your experiences?
This intro compilation is so well edited
Thank you! Our animator and editors produce some 🔥 content!
This is such a fantastic series. Please do Kubrick!!
I second that.
I third that
I fourth that 😉😂
@@StudioBinder haha lol!!
I 63496th that.
This series is heaven. I hope you do more in the future! Bong Joon-ho, Tim Burton, David Lynch, Stephen Chow and so on.
I wish this guy opened up a Film School that would be great.I would go to it.
The best school or education is what can be interacted with. His movies are there, they are treasure troves. He also recently did a Masterclass teaching how he makes movies and his education etc.
@@TheRobloxianTacoLord link if possible
He has a course on Masterclass[DOT]com
@@LuisSierra42 much appreciation
In my opinion the best way to studied movies is by watching his movies. That's what Tarantino does on his way to the film industry. Analyze Scorsese's movies pieces by pieces, watch some BTS footage on a way how he makes films, that's the best way to learn movies
As far back as I remember I always wanted to be a gangster
I WENT FROM RAAAAGS TO RICHES
hahaha... had you been so.. You wouldnt be here to comment. lol..
I understood that reference
why, the movies glorify that life im sure alot people will tell you something different
chinelo betserai it’s a quote
Cinema is the way of life, based off reality. That’s what makes it beautiful.
A. Choucair I think that goes for art in general
Silence is one of the greatest movies ever made. Thank you Mr. Scorsese for your incredible works of art. You give this world a little more substance and we could all use that in today's day and age.
My Top 10:
10. Gangs of New York
9. The Wolf of the Wall Street
8. The Aviator
7. Hugo
6. Casino
5. Raging Bull
4. Taxi Driver
3. GoodFellas
2. The Irishman
1. The Departed
Calling Scorsese a legend is such an understatement
I like how you silently slipped in the subscribe and notification thing, so subtle and that's the right way to do it! Also love your channel learning so much 💕
And the edit was so perfect it didn't even need a voice over to explain nothing. Martin did it. Amazing video.
Most of the channels do it that way now.
Marty alone is already a cinematic genius. Marty and Thelma is a cinematic match on a godly level well above that. What an incredible once in a universe pairing
1. Raging bull
2. Taxi driver
3. Goodfellas
4. The wolf of wall street.
5. The departed.
6. The age of innocence.
7. Casino.
8. The king of comedy.
9. Mean streets.
10. After hours.
11. The aviator.
12. Gangs of new york.
13. The last themptation of Crhist.
14. Hugo.
15. Cape fear.
16.Shutter island.
Silence and The irishman i still havent seen them.
And Irish?
Putting Shutter island last is a crime
Silence is incredible
Ahh man..the director's chair title sequence always gives me goosebumps 🔥😌
Our animators do some magical things! 🎬✨👌🏻
@@StudioBinder do you happen to know the music used?
@@LycanVisuals I would love to know
Why does making a movie seem like an impossible thing to me, I cant even fathom the amount of creativity and dedication you need
I had lots of it but not t'he money for it... I have 10 movies in my head with dialogue and all that stuff that fuckes up i want that on screen...
Tarantino and now Martin Scorcesse...Covering up all the legends..Thank you for your efforts to educate us 🙏❤️. They don't create a FILM, they express it.
I can see the correlation between 2019s JOKER movie and Martin Scorsese inspired style of a movie. Particularly The "You talkin to me?" Scene and in the Joker when Joaquin Phoenix reenacts his stage scene on the couch.
That's a callback to a scene from The King of Comedy.
You should watch it if you haven't already
Joker is an inspiration of the king of comedy and a remake of taxi driver
As far back as I can remember, I've always wanted to be a filmmaker.
Today i was having a terrible morning, things going wrong for my future and present self, like not getting into college or not be able to sleep right. But something about Martin's mother "Get going" hit me so strong that i snap out of that negativity, and suddently i was analizing my paths in life.
Loving, watching, and idolizing Scorsese films? "Anytime, Anywhere."
Taxi driver
The good fellas
Casino
The departed
The wolf of the Wall Street
Thank you very much Mr. Scorsese
Very inspiring, especially last section, hearing the voice in his head to keep going. :)
I can watch his movies again and again without getting bored.
A master of his topic.
A reason to watch cinema.
An American with a taste of the old great Italian directors.
"One day, some of the kids from the neighborhood carried my mother's groceries all the way home. You know why? It was outta respect."
"When I was your age they would say we can become cops, or criminals. Today, what I'm saying to you is this: when you're facing a loaded gun, what's the difference?"
...and when you're extorting money from the public, what's the difference?
Oh, you can ignore and NOT do business with the Mafia. Not the cops.
These videos are SO well done and put together. Please keep it up!
Thanks Jake! Appreciate the kind words! Thank you for your support, stay tuned for more cool content!
THE DEPARTED 2006 AND GOODFLLAS 1990 ARE INFACT MY MOST FAVORITE FILMS EVER
I love this. In about a month, I get to be a PA on his upcoming film. I've been watching videos on his directing style and this is the most informative and interesting.
Just watched The Irishman last night at Belasco, truly a masterpiece! Recommend everyone to see it in theater if you are in New York area.
Just remember to use the restroom before watching it in theaters. It's Scorsese's longest film to date⏤a whopping 3 hrs. and 30 mins! ✌🏻
@@StudioBinder there's no intermission ?
Give this man an Academy Award! Best director, best film. He deserves to have at least two or three of both!!!
He's definitely been nominated many times. Won Best Director in 2007 for The Departed.
StudioBinder that’s why we hate the Academy
This is by far the best movie related channel I've come across. Kudos to your team.
And this video truly does justice about his statement about marvel movies are not cinema..i believe only true film lover will understand what he meant ❤️❤️❤️
People get really defensive over that.
I love marvel movies but they are just movies made for entertainment , they are not cinema , they are not art.
Marvel / Superhero movies are just made to keep the franchise in people's consciousness. To make more money off merchandise. That's the whole point of it. Zero storyline.
eladbari fuck off you’re not that clever bro
love this guy, one of the best directors out there. loved the atmosphere of the video, too.
also, keep making these. I’d love to see Spike Jonze or Steven Spielberg.
All his films are ranked from Great to a Masterpiece!!
Thank you so much StudioBinder for the insight
looking forword for more
The man. How invaluable would be to have a talk about filmmaking with him...
I would said his best films of all the time were Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, Shutter Island, Raging Bull, Wolf of Wall Street, Casino and The Aviator
wow....i can relate, directing edits and holding the camera. It forces you to either learn or fail, then learn. MAKING THE SAUCE TOMORROW NIGHT!
That opening titles sequence... haha... you've got all these amazing directors and their great movies... and then Wonder Woman.
It's a good movie though
It's there for the same reason Black Panther was nominated for best picture.
You guys make terrific work! I really appreciate how you manage to teach without narration and how you add the character's flair to the edit.
Martin Scorsese isn’t the director we deserve, but he’s the one we need.
Now this is documentary filmmaking. You might have seen a comment on a previous video. But this honestly is amazing. Thank you all again. For enforcing us so beautifully.
I can relate to him saying "where i come from making movies is like going to the moon" truly impossible. But hopefully a year from now you'll be seeing my first feature film. And, oh yeah, it's pretty gangster.
Thanks for including the recipe for the sauce in the end!
👨🏻🍳🍝👌🏻😉
COMENTARIOO EN ESPAÑOL REBELDEEEEE!!!!!!!!
Es sorprendente este video desde aqui les doy las gracias por este gran video y comprendemos mejor a los directores que estan detras de nuestras peliculas favoritas y es sorprendente como sus videos transmiten tanta emocion es genial el ritmo, el montaje todo absolutamente es una maravilla.
Muchas gracias
3 years ago when I didn't know much I watched Shutter Island . And there's something about not just Scorsese but most great filmmakers , where they somehow captivate you. The way they shoot and the look of the film is much different than the usual blockbuster.
That "You talking to me" scene by Bob has to be one of the greatest things in Cinema.
Robert De Niro and Martin Scorsese are the best duo
his mom was the typical lovely mom
My favorite actors have starred in his movies. So it makes me wonder if they're my favorite actors because of his influence, if he's such a dominant director because of their influence, or is just a combination of the best-of-the-best from all worlds coming together in some symbiotic relationship of greatness.
This man is an absolute genius. We're blessed to have his films.
This channel is pure GOLD
PLEASE do the Safdie brothers! Such a refreshing style
It is a beautiful moment to realize there is still a lot of Scorsese movies I haven't seen. It's gonna be a busy winter.
Simply put he is a marvelous filmmaker..
Genious is the only word that comes to my mind about Martin Scorcese. I have not seen every single one of his films, but about maybe about 98 percent of them give or take. He is incomparable.
what a memorable climax! Best part of the video!
Love the way he said Take Their Time at 6:32!!!!!!👍👍👍😁😁😁
who edited this?? that section at 1:00 is amazing. if i can ever get my work anywhere close to that id be happy.
I'll be sure to pass your comment along to our team! They do some awesome work! 😊✌🏻🎬
Please keep these coming!
Thank you deeply for everything Mr Scorsese.
I love at 0:06 how Mr. Scorsese looks like he's conducting a symphony orchestra
Is there a director's chair video for Steven Spielberg? And if not, will there be?
At times, silence is the loudest answer.
:(
Every video you guys make is an absolute gold.
love his mother. such a character.
His choice of music in wolf of wall street is spontaneous and terrific
There is so much similarity between an Auteur and a Master chef. Both are particular about the temperature be it color or the oil...Frames are like the plates :)
I can't say it enough how much i admire this person.
How about a series of videos covering directors that pushed the boundaries of special effects (ex: Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Robert Zemeckis, James Cameron, Peter Jackson, etc...)?
@Da Dole99 🤨🙄😒
@Da Dole99 Putting personal biases aside, Jackson was the only one whose first big budget film actually used CGI. The others rose to prominence during the 70s and 80s.
@Da Dole99 This thread isn't about praise nor opinion. Most notable artists of any profession eventually lose their relevance, but the road they paved before then should be analyzed & studied by enthusiasts of their respective fields.
@Da Dole99 There are countless filmmakers bad enough to be below academic study. But this is about the heyday of the directors mentioned above. Jaws, Close Encounters, Raiders of the Lost Ark, ET, Jurassic Park, Saving Private Ryan, Star Wars, Terminator, Aliens, The Abyss, True Lies, Titanic, Back to the Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Forrest Gump, Contact, The Frighteners, Lord of the Rings, King Kong, etc... all pushed the boundaries of special effects. They only became "mediocre" later in their careers as most great artists do.
Hello, I am from Jakarta, Indonesia. I am so glad with this channel. So much lessons which could be learned. Love this video, especially the way you edit it.
He is an incredible director
10:30 wow such an amazing camera movement

These videos of yours are just nuts. I really want to thank you for all the effort you put into making such brilliant and precious videos. Great job, keep doing like this. These contents are some of the best you can find in YT Earth.
Can you do Villeneuve? We would very much appreciate it.
Nice. Nice nice
I loved your editing
Few concepts
Expressed in a very clean way
"You wanna see helicopters? I'll show you helicopters."
without a doubt one of the best director...THANK YOU from NEPAL!!!
Appreciate the support! Scorsese is definitely one of the best in the industry!
This made me so happy I'm going to watch it again

Thanks a lot for uploading this video
That was so good. The master.
such a great look into my favorite storyteller. best one yet 🧠
Thank you for watching! Appreciate the support! 😊✌🏻
