"Do you want to have an adventure?" Paramount Pictures has unveiled the first charming trailer via Apple for Martin Scorsese's new 3D adventure, Hugo, the new official title of the adaptation of The Invention of Hugo Cabret, by Brian Selznick. This delightful family comedy stars Asa Butterfield and Chloe Moretz, with Jude Law, Sacha Baron Cohen, Ben Kingsley, Ray Winstone, Christopher Lee, Richard Griffiths and Michael Stuhlbarg. This is just a wonderful trailer, it looks so amazing, I can't wait to see it. And of course "Kings & Queens" certainly helps a bit. Watch the trailer and let us know what you think?

Check out the first trailer for Martin Scorsese's Hugo via Apple:

You can also watch the first Hugo trailer in High Defintion on Apple

Set in 1930s Paris, an orphan (Asa Butterfield) who lives in the walls of a train station becomes wrapped up in a mystery with his young new friend (Chloe Moretz) that involves his late father and an automaton.

Hugo, originally The Invention of Hugo Cabret, is directed by Oscar winning filmmaker Martin Scorsese, of films like Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, Goodfellas, Casino, The Aviator, Gangs of New York, The Departed and Shutter Island most recently. The screenplay was written by John Logan (Gladiator, The Time Machine, The Aviator, Sweeney Todd, Rango, Coriolanus, Bond 23), based on Brian Selznick's book. This was shot in 3D. Paramount is bringing Hugo to theaters everywhere starting November 23rd this fall. Looks great?

I'm sicking to my guns, I will not see this movie...I love Scorsese but its in 3-D...so sadly pass.

http://www.firstshowing.net Alex Billington

Awwwww that is SO sad to hear! This looks wonderful man! Did you even watch it...? :/

Xerxexx

Alex, I relented and watched it...it was quite a great trailer, so I have decided I will see it, but not in theaters, a definite rent...I can't see it in theaters, unless of course its outta 3-D.

i have to agree - no 3D for me, either! if this has a non-3D counterpart, i'll see it in the theatre......otherwise, it's a rent for sure. and wow - a wonderful trailer. it has a real magical quality to it.......too bad about the 3D part.

You all don't need to be wailing and whining about the 3-D. Most theatres show both 3-D and 2-D versions.

Al

This is a late reply, but I need to point out that this is a myth. Many reported being unable to see Deathly Hallows 2 because no 2-D version was shown. According to US media reports some theatres are showing 2-D with the 3-D projectors, rendering a poor picture (I believe I experienced this with Deathly Hallows 2 here in Canada). I personally have been unable to see several films because either no 2-D was shown or the 2-D was SOLD OUT. We cannot assume that 3-D movies are going to be made available in 2-D everywhere.

That atitude can make you lose some great adventures in life

Xerxexx

indeed it can! But as Harry Waters said: "You gotta stick to you principles." right before he ate a bullet.

You are a moron. 3D rocks!!!! This looks fantastic. I'm there.

3d is for morons and this looks awful

everyone is entitled to their opinion. - i've never liked 3D - it's a gimmick designed to get more money out of people.

grimjob

agree. its completely unnecessary to the story. I don't watch movies to be dazzled by effects, unless its a Michael Bay film, I guess.

Anonymous

michael bay went to shit with T2 and T3

Marcus

I am one to agree with you that 3D is completely unnecessary, but... If there is anyone that could have the most interesting reason for filming a movie in 3D it's the guy that directed Taxi Driver and Boardwalk Empire.

hg

trailer makes it seem boring and a typical kids movie i am sure it is not but the trailer makes it seem that way
Loser

I watch everything Scorsese does, He is a Genius.

JL

Shutter Island disappointed me. Not because it wasn't good, but because it tried too hard to be scary most of the way and didn't play up the tragedy element as much as it could have. I mean, that music was annoying and loud as hell throughout the whole thing. I don't need to be told when to be scared, and frankly silence can do a lot more than sharp sudden sounds or crescendo in developing tension. But yeah, Scorsese is pretty great.

Joshua

I didn't like it cause the trailer gave away the whole damn movie!

Moviekidmike

It looks more like a Robert Zemeckis poler express esque movie a Martin Scorsese film. It seems a little to sappy and whimsical for me. It's also another film that was made mainly to use the 3D gimmick

Jaz

Shutter Island was basically Martin doing M Night Shyamalan (at least up to The Village). So harking to Zemeckis might not be a bad thing.

RFabry

I read this book and absolutely loved it. But, to me, it didn't seem like a happy, light-hearted cheesy kids movie that the trailer makes it look like. With lots of bad comedy and such. But maybe I'm wrong. I am REALLY hoping I'm wrong. Because that book has so much potential for a spectacular movie to be made out of it.
Cracky

Bad choice of song. But it looked pretty cool. I could do without hearing the word "adventure" over and over, though.
Ryanr1024

When did the great Martin Scorsese sell-out??? Sad day!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9emWB_rrMt0 Crapola

Ha ha, sold out, ages ago.

Kevin

Ugh... the music makes this seem so cheesy! That and all of the Sacha Baron Cohen slapstick humor. I was really hoping for more from this
ate

I was hoping for a darker family movie as it stands it looks like the usual fare. Fluff basically, but better than the crap-on-turds like Zookeeper and Tooth Fairy still.

This looks really bad.

Guest22324

Only a film typical wannabe film critic would say that. I guess you idiots have to have something to complain about.

http://www.facebook.com/brianriccimoviereview Brian Ricci Movie Review

I'm a what? A film typical wannabe film critic? What is that?

Guest22324

Typo or no typo - either way, you are an idiot.

http://www.facebook.com/brianriccimoviereview Brian Ricci Movie Review

That was a typo? Wow. Yeah. I guess I'm the idiot.
grimjob

Damn. What's with the hostility? If you want to shell out even more money to watch bullshit fly out at you, that's your decision. But stop talking shit to those who care more about a strong storyline and character development than a gimmick meant to rape the wallets of parents and dazzle the eyes of simple folk like yourself.

That music was cheeeeheeheheeeeseballios. Quite like how it's graded though, not really arsed about the 3d but the sets look great.
http://www.facebook.com/danielvutran Daniel Vu Tran

I honestly thought it was really fucking good CGI until about 20s in LOL.
Matt

You all don't need to be getting your panties in a wad about the 3-D. Most theatres show both 3-D and 2-D versions, especially now that 3-D is losing momentum. So just don't watch the 3-D version. I don't.

Al

As I posted in reply to another comment here, 2-D showings are not a guarantee and there have been reports of substandard picture quality in some theatres (I experienced this myself). With the studios intent on force-feeding us 3-D, fois gras-style, and the fact Hugo is reportedly only being released 2-D "in selected theatres" I am assuming this one's going to be hard to come by in 2-D until the Blu-ray comes out later.

Armeetapus16

I really hate that song, if they had different music I'd like this trailer a whole lot more. The movie looks fun though
JL

Is this the first kid friendly Scorsese picture?

Jez

Yep so this is unmarked territory for Marty. At least he won't be channeling M. Night Shyamalan (which he did with Shutter Island) with this one.

JL

Let's hope not.

jjboldt

If someone already commented about this I missed it, but is it just me or does the boy playing Hugo look like a younger Elijah Wood? And since I don't know anythign about this story, I still don't because the trailer doesn't really give you much of an idea.
wake

Marty has young kids..... He had to make at least one for the kids. I'm happy for him though Can't wait for his upcoming movie though: http://www.slashfilm.com/robert-de-niro-martin-scorsese-irishman-happening/
Jez

Don't worry about Hugo. Seems more interesting than Shutter Island already.
happy camper

He got his pitty Oscar, he needs to retire or just produce now.

Martin Scorsese is one of, if not my favourite director of all time. And seeing this trailer truly proves how I am not insane. For all of the people who have critisized this trailer or film for being 3-D or not being the usual Scorsese crime flick (which dont get me wrong, I am a massive fan) are not understanding that all directors crave to expand. And not only has Scorsese done that, but he has used 3-D in a film that HE BELIEVES (let's all remember that he believes movies such as Transformers and Green hornet should not be in 3-D, but movies such as Precious and other dramas) should be in 3D. I LOVE this trailer and I always look for style similarities in the trailers of directors, and i LOVE the fact that his style, work, and artform has translated into this new film. I think it will be fantastic and I will be in line opening day to see this one. Simply beautiful trailer and I think it looks as visually compelling as any other Scorsese film. Of course everyone is entitled to their opinions, but I think this will be a real Home run for Scorsese. Two Thumbs Up on the trailer!

wow !! fantastic marty!! i could care less if its in 3D the story is what matters to me and the trailer was awesome left me wanting more!!
Sanderis

Terrible music choice. Honestly this looks cheese town.
Sanderis

Just watched it a second time. THe music is like the WORST. I felt like it was a movie about church camp.
Jedibilly

YOU PEOPLE MAKE ME SICK!!! WHINING ABOUT 3D! YOU CAN ALWAYS SEE IT IN THE 2D AS WELL!!!! STOP THE WAILING!!!
Marcus

Honestly this film trailer may come off as just another 3D family film, but I suspect there to be many layers to provide great depth. As a Scorsese fan I am thrilled by this trailer, because it is a far cry from all of his previous works.... All of you naysayers, I predict much different reactions after you have actually seen the movie.

Al

Only naysaying the 3-D. I'm sure the film's story will be fine and will look great on 2-D Blu-ray.

Jackmooney

Im in
Mindy-kate and Ashley

Yeah, but it's got Chloe in it. Always been impressed with her work so i'll watch it for that at least.
