The Departed - FFS

Why must Hollywood keep doing this shit?! Scorsese even?!

I just realised that The Departed is a remake of Infernal Affairs. ARRRGHHH!!!

It looks like a carbon copy rip-off, yet 45 minutes longer.

Because you touch yourself at night.

I'd just like to advise you that I am going to delete that post at my liberty.

If you had true power, you wouldn't need to keep reminding me of it. You would simply roam the earth being really humble/enlightened, having flashbacks of your Master, and getting into the occasional fight with ignorant misogynists and bullies.

Where's the comic zing in that, eh?

Nicely bowled.

news flash

scorsese hasn't made a mere decent film in 7 years

judasmuppet · Post by **judasmuppet** » 05 Oct 2006, 23:14

Bringing Out The Dead being the last good one?

Liingus · Post by **Liingus** » 05 Oct 2006, 23:45

yeah, and that's pushing it

judasmuppet · Post by **judasmuppet** » 05 Oct 2006, 23:48

It mainly qualifies because it slipped under the radar with a lack of fuss.

I was too busy hating on Eyes Wide Shut to give Bringing Out the Dead its due.

I love Eyes Wide Shut!!

Oh, and Scorsese recently said that this is going to be his last Hollywood film, because he is tired of the system... From now on, he will only make small indie flicks and documentaries...

I thought The Departed was a good movie actually.

MY AVATAR WILL FIGHT THOSE WHO THINK OTHERWISE

Shit, man. What's with the aggro?

Karp · Post by **Karp** » 10 Oct 2006, 21:42

My apologise about the aggro

Honestly though I thought it was a really good movie. So did my friends who i went to see it with. I never saw Infernal Affairs and I wasnt fully aware that The Departed was a remake. That being said, it is factual that most remakes (atleast in compairison with the original) suck in which case
I do want to see Infernal Affairs to see how justly the remake was.

judasmuppet · Post by **judasmuppet** » 10 Oct 2006, 21:51

You should see it. There is also an Infernal Affairs II and III, neither of which I have seen.

Was Damon good?

Damon was good, the casting I thought was great. Mark Wahlberg did a bang up job too.

ReverseEngineer · Post by **ReverseEngineer** » 11 Oct 2006, 10:38

Remake or not,
I'm pretty much dying to see this.

judasmuppet · Post by **judasmuppet** » 11 Oct 2006, 18:29

I am also now pretty keen to see it, having read a bit more...

Don't bring me into this.

I liked this movie.
Bringing Out The Dead sucked and so did Eyes Wide Shut.
