Scorsese for Best Director

Rating: 10/10 (15 February 2007)

OK Scorsese better get the Best Director nod this time around for The Departed! I mean what more does this guy have to do. His movies are timeless and he deserves an Oscar more than anybody. Losing to Clint Eastwood for Million Dollar Baby was a tough one. The movie was really good and Eastwood has a particular style like no other. However, Scorsese did an excellent job directing The Aviator. That was not an easy one to do! I thought that movie was great. 2 1/2 hours of pure entertainment. Then we can down the whole list of his Oscar nominated movies. What was the movie he lost to when he was up for Raging Bull? Yeah exactly it's already forgotten. Well I hope he gets it this time around. I hope Scorsese and DiCaprio team many times more in the future. He has found his new Robert DeNiro.
