List by Adam Cook Patron
Martin Scorsese: Ranked
Nuff said.
*This is the second time I've made this list but for some reason the original one doesn't seem to exist according to the site; can anybody actually see it?

I can see it in my stream but can't access it.
I have the same problem. Not sure what happened. I can't even delete it.
Weird.
Oh, and you're going to burn in Hell for putting Casino above Goodfellas.
Slightly better, but still the wrong order!....
Is the other one marked as "Private"?
What can I say, I just find the characters more interesting. I like Goodfellas a lot (everything in the top 10 gets a big thumbs up from me) but I think it may have been copied and referenced too many times. To me Casino seems the fresher film in many ways with great performances (Stone has never been better, for example).
Any sane person knows it goes: Goodfellas, Taxi Driver, Raging Bull... just kidding Adam :-) Pretty in sync in the Hugo rank.
"Marty!, Kundun, I liked it!"
@Mr Dulac: Nope, if it was I would still be able to access it (and it wouldn't be showing up in the activity stream either).
@Adam Cook: Ah ok... I see your other list now, but can't access it either.
Great to see King of Comedy and After Hours in the Top 10. Even more interesting to see Casino over Goodfellas.
Might have to do my own now.
The King of Comedy is definitely underrated. It probably contains my favourite De Niro performance.
The King of Comedy is criminally underrated. It's definitely in my Top 5 (Scorsese). After Hours is another underrated Scorsese gem.
This list is very close to what mine would be. I loved The King of Comedy, but; Taxi Driver, Casino, and Goodfellas would move ahead. I also seem to have appreciated "The Aviator" and "Shutter Island" more than most! Scorsese fans all seem to have their own favorites. They are all bloody good.
Excellent list! Good to see Kings of Comedy and After Hours so high up. The top 5 are almost the exact same order as mine, except I would bump After Hours up to #1 and Temptation down to #6. The rest of it is pretty similar to me based on what I've seen as well.
@RIchard: Definitely.
@Showbill: The Aviator is definitely my favourite recent Scorsese film, although having been disappointed by his others that probably doesn't sound like much praise.
@Jake: It has been a while since I watched After Hours so maybe it would get pushed up above a couple more (although I can't see it breaking into the top 3).
I liked Shutter Island more on a rewatch. Once I was able to take my focus off the plot, the experience settled in and felt quite surreal.
I've actually liked almost every Scorsese film. I can't tell if that's because I have a bias or if the man truly is that incredible.
I liked Hugo.
Hugo was pretty but like watching paint dry: just like the book.
