I challenge anyone to watch Mean Streets ->Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore and tell me that Martin Scorcese’s filmography “isn’t interesting” or that there’s “not much to discuss” (especially when you consider these are only his first two real movies and there’s at least 50 years of filmmaking that followed).
Really excited for Sunday’s episode.
Actor Vic Tayback, who played Mel in the film ‘Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore’, would later go on to portray the same character in the TV sitcom adaptation ‘Alice’.
Have any other actors played the same role in both a film and its subsequent TV adaptation? (Not counting movie continuations of TV shows—i.e., Sex and the City, Downton Abbey, etc.)
After Hours Criterion 4k Amazon sale ~$22
Hey all, hate to support Amazon unnecessarily but I just saw that the After Hours Criterion 4k has a coupon (might be regional, I’m not sure) that brings the price down around $22.

Residents Evil Extinction (2007), Afterlife (2010), and Retribution (2012) coming to US Netflix September 1, just in time for those commentaries
The Final Chapter (2016) and the reboot Welcome to Raccoon City (2021) still on Hulu.
Of other current Blank Check subject note, Netflix is also adding SCTV in September, potentially setting the groundwork to finally release the SCTV reunion Scorsese made 8 years ago?
Amazon apparently put that new Jason Statham movie 'Mutiny' up on prime 2 days before it's supposed to release theatrically.
this is a first right? every promo for the movie says it releases on the 21st "exclusively on theaters"
first saw this on Reddit earlier and was wondering if it'd get picked up or just taken down immediately
apparently it lacks a logo that's usually there when they do VOD releases but it's just... there
welp
The Scorsese American Express advert has to get its own Special Features.
I can honestly say its my favorite advert of all time 😂 and I think it would be a great 30 minute discussion on the pods patreon he's a great director and a very charming actor when he wants to be. I can't be the only psycho who wants this 😂😂
