Can't wait to hear how he speaks. Lincoln supposedly had a high, shrill voice.

[Mr Cola]

As much as i love DDL in most of what ive seen I saw the Crucible the other night and holy hell does he suck as John Proctor, tv movie bad. That being said im sure every actor has one bad part, at least.

[injurai]

my god. daniel day lewis was the perfect cast for this.

[Eidan]

Looks good. Does anyone know if this movie will depict Lincoln's more "nuanced" stance on slavery, or will it be Lincoln, "Champion of the Negro Cause".

[User33]

Would have preferred Liam Neeson, but Daniel Day Lewis is the ultimate method actor and is apparently taking the role very seriously, so it should be good.

Who would pick Liam Neeson over DDL for any role?

The Lincoln portrayed in this book. More of the former.

[Bulbo Urethral Baggins]

I'm more interested in the depiction of his personal life.

I want to know if we'll see this Lincoln:

Abe--I am now the most miserable man living. If what I feel were equally distributed to the whole human family, there would not be one cheerful face on the earth. Whether I shall ever be better I can not tell; I awfully forebode I shall not. To remain as I am is impossible; I must die or be better, it appears to me.

[teruterubozu]

I'm more interested in the depiction of his personal life. I want to know if we'll see this Lincoln:

He doesn't look very happy in that picture.

[GodDuckman]

But will he hunt vampires?

WILL HE?

[Patrick Bateman]

Go shove your testicles or/and ovaries in the oven, preset to 80 and then slam the door closed repeatedly.

Wow, that's a new one. :D

I'm pretty interested in how DDL will pull it off.

[shira]

Wow, that's a new one. :D I'm pretty interested in how DDL will pull it off.

I don't get the 80 reference. Maybe Australian ovens are just really slow at cooking.

[Hollywood Duo]

Not bad at all

[The Mana Legend]

Steven Spielberg is the king of mediocre Oscar-Bait movies now, so I have little hope for this, other than DDL.

[Indrid Cold1]

I'm more interested in the depiction of his personal life. I want to know if we'll see this Lincoln:

So emo.

[RustyNails]

[Snowman Prophet of Doom]

One of the best possible casting choices mixed with one of my least favorite directors.

Not sure if want.

[Borgnine]

He's got my vote.

[Charles Foster Kane]

Wow, he clearly looks the part. I hope this movie delivers. I don`t know about you, but I have lots a bit of faith in Spielberg in recent years, I hope I`m wrong though.

He at least looks great.

[Talon]

The Crucible is just a dreadful film.

[Charles Foster Kane]

One of the best possible casting choices mixed with one of my least favorite directors. Not sure if want.

Exactly my thoughts. I think he was perfectly cast. It is rare to say that before I`ve seen the film, but I trust DDL. However, yes, Spielberg being in the project does make me doubt a lot. Specially after I watched War horse. God was that terrible.

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Not bad at all

Party on dudes!

[Lord-Audie]

Man.....

Just give him the Oscar....

I will set my expectations to low.... but it would be really hard for Spielberg and the script to screw up DDLs acting.

[Kraftwerk]

I'm sure the movie will probably turn out really good, it's just going to be Oscar bait and might get overrated because of that, and then a few years later we'll look back and say it shouldn't have won like we did with The Hurt Locker and other past winners. I knew the moment it was announced with DDL and Spielberg + a bio pic.

I'm so tired of hearing 'Oscar Bait'. What isn't Oscar Bait? And who gives a shit about the Oscars. Just enjoy the movie, that is all that matters.

[Talon]

Electric Six is doing the soundtrack? Good.

[NYR]

Who would pick Liam Neeson over DDL for any role?

Steven Spielberg, the director of this movie?

Google it, it was his role for years and dropped out because he thought he looked too old. DDL was a replacement.

[universalmind]

Looks good, but I'm tired of Spielberg's style.

[bud]

i'm only interested in this because of day-lewis.

hopefully, one day he'll be in a malick film.

[slightconfuse]

wow that looks good ,cant wait

[Loxley]

Holy fuck o.O I mean, its just a profile shot and not frontal, but so far so good.

[Charles Foster Kane]

I`m sure DDL will turn in an excellent performance, so for htat the movie will be interesting at the very least.

[jett]

Makeup people putting in the work.

I'm still not all that interested in the subject matter of this movie. I hope Espielbergo tones down his usual schmaltziness.

[Lebron]

Yeah, I couldn't imagine Neeson as Lincoln at all. DDL should bring a good performance as usual.

[itwasTuesday]

Why wasn't Bill Murray cast then?

You got me, I would cast Venkman in every movie/videogame/tvshow/album.

[Perspicacity]

I'm sure the movie will probably turn out really good, it's just going to be Oscar bait and might get overrated because of that, and then a few years later we'll look back and say it shouldn't have won like we did with The Hurt Locker and other past winners. I knew the moment it was announced with DDL and Spielberg + a bio pic.

Basterds and District 9 were better movies than The Hurt Locker, but the next runner-up was Avatar so I really can't be upset over Hurt Locker winning over that shit.

[Magilla]

No Vampires, No sale.

[UnluckyKate]

I already saw this movie. He kills vampire with an axe. it was okay. Why is Spielberg already rebooting it ?

[starchild excalibur]

...and you're falling for it hook, line, and sinker, just like the Academy will.

If it ends up being a good film, who the hell cares what sort of bait you presume it is or isn't? All that matters is the film - not the hype. If oscar baiting is such a big issue, then just avoid or ignore the hype and judge the film on its own merits when it comes out.

[krameriffic]

Does he hunt vampires in this movie?

[TheKaeptain]

War Horse looked nice in stills too.

[RBelong2Us]

My only concern with this film.... Spielberg. It's so hard to know if this guy still has the magic touch. Last time i saw glimpse were during Munich.

[Speedymanic]

Sweet Jesus, :O

Need a trailer, right f'ing now.

[ViewtifulJC]

War Horse looked nice in stills too.

Please

Let us keep the dream alive a little longer

[T Dollarz]

I strongly disliked War Horse. Thought it was quite terrible, actually.

Munich on the other hand... fucking godly film.

[Loxley]

I think we've reached our quota of 37 Abe Lincoln Vampire Hunter jokes, people.

[C4Lukins]

That is crazy. Someone find me a good still from J. Edgar.

I barely see Daniel Day underneath that.

[SeriousApes]

I always thought Bill Nye the science guy kind of looked like Lincoln.

[C4Lukins]

The only thing that still worries me about this film is Sally Field. Why oh why is Sally Field in this movie?

I like Sally Field as a very particular type of character. But I agree that she seems wrong for this. She has never played someone that I could believe existed before 1960, and well we have a few more years down on the timeline with this one.

[gdt]

Electric Six is doing the soundtrack? Good.

Wait wait WHAT?

Composer is John Williams according to wiki, as expected.

[Discotheque]

The only thing that still worries me about this film is Sally Field. Why oh why is Sally Field in this movie?

Eh it seems like she was born to play women in this time period. She just has that face.
