I realized something. If I ever see Martin Scorsese, I'll go up to him say, "Um...excuse me...Mr. Scorsese." And he'll be all like "Yes! Hello! I make pictures!" and I'll just give him a big hug and run away. He's just a big cuddly teddy bear and he's good at making movies. :(
I remember I saw him in person once, he came to a Q&A session at USC back in 1980, right before Raging Bull came out. I was in the lobby of the theater when he came in, but I was too intimidated to walk up to him and say anything.
Marty's in Montreal right now. I'm trying to get my friend to hunt him down... and hug him.
I'd probably act like Chris Farley did on the SNL skit, "The Chris Farley Show": Remember in Taxi Driver, DeNiro said 'You talkin' to me'? That was great.

You mean in the sketch he did with Paul McCartney?
"You know when you were with the Beatles? That was cool."

I realize that. That was merely the one that came to mind.

I'm going to kick your ass
But seriously, Scorsese.

Yeah, for sure. But you have to promise to try and get a pic of you and him, then post it here.
Seriously, if you guys could see my friend Ali who lives there... he's fucking hilarious. And his favorite movie (I mean, he'll freak out if you even call it just "okay") is Goodfellas. I've seen him break things in public when someone didn't give Marty proper respect. I really want him to find Scorsese.
Cecil, have you tried looking? Check those pics and info someone posted about the aviator, and see where he's shooting...
ill talk to my uncle, maybe he would know. its just hard to get in touch with him
I figure, I shook PT Anderson's hand, I could shake Scorsese's. I probably won't say anything important, same as when I met PTA and sort of mumbled my name, then made a funny noise when the flash on my camera went off prematurely, then told him I adore his films.
I'd say that to Scorsese except I'd be like "I adored your films with Robert DeNiro".
Well. Scorsese is the Man no matter what.

i really didnt know where to put this and this thread had the most ambiguous title...
Scorsese: No Such Thing As Pointless Violence
Veteran director Martin Scorsese refuses to accept onscreen violence can ever be gratuitous, because it forms an integral part of the human experience. The 61-year-old legend, who has captured some of cinema's most graphic violence in movie classics including Goodfellas, Taxi Driver and Casino, says blood is an essential ingredient of daily reality. Scorsese says, "There is no such thing as pointless violence. City Of God, is that pointless violence? It's reality, it's real life, it has to do with the human condition. Being involved in Christianity and Catholicism when I was very young, you have that innocence, the teachings of Christ. Deep down you want to think that people are really good - but the reality outweighs that."
