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

Ah, you’re one of those people.

Yeah, I tend to heckle the soapboxers. It's a hobby.

Especially those who can't have a civil discussion without downvoting anyone who disagrees with them out of a deep insecurity of being challenged on anything, no matter how small.
