Hugo a Go Go

Just saw Scorsese's Hugo in 3D. Best use of 3D I've seen. One of the best, most interesting films I've seen in a very long time. Excellent cast. Not really a kid's flick but it's got enough to keep them interested. Love the central irony of a 3D film partly about the extremely early days of cinema and the disruptive power generated by moving from one paradigm to another. All the while going steam punk with all the gears. I suspect Scorcese said to himself: 'Sod it! I'm rich, famous and powerful enough to do what I want to do' and then he did it. More power to him. I wonder if he's fixed Cinema?
