How does a director follow up a film like The Irishman?

Fans who have seen the film on Netflix will no doubt wonder what is next for the iconic auteur, whose body of work also includes classics such as Taxi Driver and Goodfellas.

 

But what is Martin Scorsese's next film?

The Irishman was like watching paint dry, or watching my wife eat som tam.

I agree that it wasn't as good or impressive a movie as Netflix is hyping up with its glowing self-scribed reviews.

I agree. And while the film traded on the true story about death of Jimmy Hoffa, the reality was that Sheehan was probably not the killer. Another reason not to watch this marathon all the way through!

The sad part about the LONG movie was watching all of my favorite actors having aged, De Niro walking a bit like a stiff mummy, doubt that was how the character walked, and the blue contacts, really, sort of spaced me out looking at him, without taking any narcotics.

 

Pesci was very relaxed, but Paccino still has the FIRE, brilliant, absolutely brilliant and passionate about acting Paccino always ahead of De Niro followed by Pesci IMO, although I love the 3 of them.

Knowing De Niro's politics ruined the watching for me. YMMV

According to Sharon Stone [...] in 2018, the project had already wrapped filming "a couple of years ago" and has been in the editing suite ever since.

 

Scorsese's film editor, from the very beginning, is a woman he went to film school with.  A lot of his artistic achievement is due to her.

I just saw a vid of Scorsese and the three main actors talking about making the movie.  At one point Marty said something in passing (he talks fast, y'know) about when he was "shooting in Taiwan."  Say what?  Maybe this is it.

 

BTW, I think this thing DeNiro has a against DT is more of New Yorker thing than about politics.  I won't go into details.  As a native of the place myself I can see it, but wouldn't expect someone not from there to understand.
