Best & worst Martin Scorsese films, Marty hot takes & The Departed ending explained

It's hard to find many directors who've been spewing movie hits for over 5 decades (hello Spielberg? Scott?) but Martin Scorsese fits the bill perfectly.

And over 20 episodes in, we thought it was about darn time to talk about the auteur who's influenced not just various genres but also cinema as a craft.


Dive right in for our (belated) episode to listen to:

  • Further "The Last of Us" reactions
  • Ben's take on Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
  • Sophie's indie movie recommendation for the week
  • Simon's arthouse nightmares
  • Martin Scorsese's best and worst films as voted by YOU
  • That Marvel x Scorsese debate discourse
  • A listener's voice note on why Marty may just be overrated (oops)
  • And a proper breakdown of the final scene of The Departed (yeah, let's put the rat argument to bed)
