I think he will. He seems to like putting his final stamp on a story. Take a look at The Departed for the most recent example.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Yeah, he does...so maybe it'll be all cool.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Scorsese hasn't made a good movie since Goodfellas, so I won't be getting my hopes up.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

ughhh...

The Departed
Bob Dylan: No Direction Home
Casino
Gangs of New York
Aviator
etc

I'm pretty sure these all qualify as "good movies". They are no Goodfellas, but that's also a top ten-ish movie all time, and my personal favorite. It's hard to top.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Goodfellas sucks.

:)

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

For some reason...I like Casino more than Goodfellas..I may think it's better. They are similar...maybe it's Liotta's fucking weird ass smile that bothers me. Look like jmu878, it's hard as fuck to get another movie as good as film as Goodfellas is known for.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

All crap, except for Bob Dylan, which I've never seen, nor ever want to see.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

This is coming from someone who called Pulp Fiction and The Usual Suspects "pieces of shit", hates The Godfather trilogy and The Deer Hunter...so pay no mind.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

I never said I hated The Godfather films. I'm just not a fan of them, but they are extremely well made. You are right about the other three though, I hate them all with a passion. Especially The Usual Suspects & Pulp Fiction.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

He can't change the climax very much without altering the story drastically. The story itself hinges upon the ending.

And while I liked The Departed for what it was, he should have removed that very final stamp. The shot of the rat scurrying across the view of the State House was downright embarrassing. Way to end your movie with such a hamfisted final shot, Marty.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Am I really the only person who views the final shot as just an amusing visual joke Scorsese threw in at the last minute, and nothing more? Unless someone can point out something Scorsese said about it, there's nothing "hamfisted" or symbolic about that shot.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Actually I wasn't referring to that shot. I was talking about the entire scene with Mark Wahlberg's character.

The placement of Scorsese's name is kind of awkward, but it's certainly an improvement on the previous poster.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Looks entertaining. A movie like this needs a decent plot and quality atmosphere, looks to have both. Though I don't expect A-level Scorscese out of it.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

looks like this one is gonna be full blown hitchcockian. officially my most anticipated film of the year.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Any time Scorsese makes a new one, it's my most anticipated film of the year.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Trailer looks terrific, that's the most psyched I've been in years by a Scorcese trailer. I just really, really hope they don't change the ending to the book.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

One the one hand, that trailer creeped me the fuck out, and the inside of the institution was terrific. On the other, the Boston accents, the CG, and the insultingly over-expositional dialogue made me wince. I mean, I've never seen a Scorsese film I regretted watching (and only didn't like Boxcar Bertha and The Color of Money), so I'll be there opening day for sure. But this makes me a mite uneasy.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Are they serious with those accents? Christ.

Visually, it looks pretty fucking rad. I really like the look of it. Still hopeful that they changed the ending somewhat, but I know that it isn't in the cards.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Fixed.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Very excited for this one - Scorsese gave us a taste of what he can do with the horror\thriller genre when he did Cape Fear - this one looks nice and creepy and I'm a sucker for the "haunted house", "haunted island", "haunted this or that or whatever" type films.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Here's the trailer addict video for those of us who no longer use quicktime:

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

The trailer feels like another generic "ghost" story to me. It looks merely ok to me. That said, I will be seeing it in theatres.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Yes, but a great director can do a lot with a generic story. For example,Drag Me to Hell looks rather bland in the trailers. I wasn't interested at all until I found out Sam Raimi was involved.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

That looks like the lighthouse from "The Ring"

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

The trailer looks very generic and Haley's the best thing in it.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

This looks to have a very Bringing Out the Dead vibe, which is one of my favorite Scorcese pictures. Trailer was good, can't wait.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Trailer looks great. I trust DiCaprio, he hasn't been in a movie I didn't like.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Really? I can't think many films that can compare in some fashion to the talent of Scorsese.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Friday's episode of Conan O'Brien revealed the alternate title of this film:

Fart Party 9: Boner's Revenge

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

This looks absolutely fantastic.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

So, where's the "great director" in your example?

*runs out of thread*

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

I caught the trailer for this on the Ultimate Trailer Show the other day. Looks pretty damn good to me. I'm looking forward to seeing how Scorsese handles some horror.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

Sydow is my main reason I want to see this film the other actors are frosting on the cake!

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

He did a great job with Cape Fear.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

This is his first feature film with a 'story' since The Departed. Will be interested to see how/if the Oscar has affected his style and what the results are.

I have a really bad feeling the critics might not really dig this, but we'll see. The Departed looked pretty throwaway from initial trailers.

re: Shutter Island (Scorsese, 2010): DiCaprio, Ruffalo, Kingsley, Von Sydow
 

I thought Scorsese should have toned down De Niro's histrionics in that one, he was way over the top, to the point where he just became a cartoon. I much prefer the nonchalant, coiled-snake evil of Mitchum in the original.
