There is actually a huge, honkin', whale of a Scorsese thread, which can be found by clicking HERE.

To recap my five favorites...

1. GoodFellas
2. Taxi Driver
3. Raging Bull
4. After Hours
5. The Age of Innocence

Yeah, I like Bringing Out the Dead. It was unfairly dismissed by too many in '99. I'd rank it twelfth in his overall filmography.

You want me to reread that monster in order to get a simple question answered? You must think I'm Superman...or something.

Goodfellas is my favorite gangster piece of all time.

Taxi Driver is a masterpiece....

I loved Mean Streets too...its hard to pick a favorite movie of Scorcese..
I am a DeNiro fan so anything with him in it is a plus for me..

Raging Bull is my favourite.
Mean streets second.
Goodfellas third.
Taxi Driver is intelligent, but too experimental, cold and depressing for my tastes.

And by the way, isn't it ScorSese, not ScorCese?
