He's great with Di Nero & Joe Pesci.
Pure movie magic. <ok>

He gets the absolute best out of Leonardo Di Caprio... Shutter Island, Wolf of Wall St, Departed, Gangs of New York... his older stuff is also great as you say, but he had to get off the De Niro hook and he did so in style.
 
It'd be a lot better without Tom Cruise.

I like Martin Scorsese's stuff, but he's cast **** like Nicholas Cage in his films.

Likely wouldn't have been made without Cruise but I get what you mean.

Scorsese can cast just about anyone other than Andrew Garfield and he's got an utter classic on his hands for me.
 
Nicholas Cage starred in Face Off. Fantastic film.

He was also in Con Air, which was an actual fantastic film.

I don't actually mind him, he's Daniel Day Lewis compared to Tom Cruise, but he always seems to have the same face for every expression.

Con Air. Love it. Cracking film.
 
Sully is on Exodus in 1080p for anybody who has Kodi by the way, it's definitely worth a watch.

For anybody who doesn't know it's the true story of a pilot who landed a plane in the Hudson River with 155 people on board.
 
Liam Neeson

Good or not?

Brilliant actor in my opinion, right back to Schindler's List, my only issue with him is he takes crap parts in crap films from time to time, he seems to have found a bit of a niche now, like Taken, Non-stop, unknown... all his characters seem to blend into one. Scorsese cast him in a totally different type of film recently and it looks like a complete snoozefest.

Aye i think he's canny cool.
 
Bradley Cooper is the one Hollywood seem to be pushing lately, I'm not buying it, he is very good, but not enough to be the face that runs the place.

Can't stand that little prick either but I did enjoy Gangs of New York.
My favorite Scorsese film is Raging Bull.
I've seen it so many times but it always moves me.

Aye, I like Liam Neeson.
