Thought it was good. I missed much of the hype before and after and went in blind.

I think your anger is directed more at your expectations of it (a.k.a the ad/hype machine) than the film itself

    I didn’t follow the hype. All I knew about the movie before going into it was that Scorsese had rewritten the script because he realized he had made a movie about white men and forgotten the native Americans. To which I now ask: what the fuck was the script like before?

    I’m glad that you liked it, but please don’t make assumptions about me disliking it because I supposedly fell for a hype train. That is not what happened.

    From your long drawn out text that goes into Scorcese's filmography, I assumed you were well informed of his upcoming works and watching something because of a script re-write tends to lend itself a sense of expectation.

    I think you might be plugged into the hype machine more than you might allow yourself to believe
