Lincoln Reviews, Interviews & More
As the Twilight franchise comes to an end the final movie, Breaking Dawn - Part 2, made a crap-ton of money this weekend, but not enough to set any records (it isn't even the highest opening weekend for a Twilight film). Oh well, the makers are going to have to settle for a crap-ton of money.
The final Twilight film is upon us. At least, maybe. The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 is the last of the adaptations of the exceptionally popular franchise, but that doesn't mean a spin off or a reboot might not be on its way in the near future. As we've seen with Star Wars, if there's money to be made, then studios...
When focusing on the nation's greatest president during its darkest time, a filmmaker has to tread carefully. Their work can either blow you away or turn into a dull history lesson. Luckily, Lincoln is the former. Steven Spielberg delivers what's easily one of the best movies of the year.
With Steven Spielberg's Lincoln getting a limited release this weekend, and the events of last Tuesday, it's worth looking at some of cinema's greatest presidents. And though it's easy to fall back on those playing Lincoln, or W even, we love fake presidents even more. Here's ten of our favorite.
So it's a James Bond weekend at the box office. Though Steven Spielberg's Lincoln also opens in limited release this Friday, the only picture going wide is Skyfall, which is already on Imax screens, and the picture has already made $321 Million internationally. It's doesn't need America to be a success, but it's going to be big stateside as...
While the first trailer for Steven Spielberg’s Lincoln biopic featured Daniel Day-Lewis in a haze of weepy and maudlin Oscar-bait shots, accompanied by appropriately portentous music, the new Lincoln trailer that aired last night during the first presidential debate of the 2012 race is pretty fiery. In fact, it was far more impressive and inspiring than watching...
The highly anticipated first trailer for Steven Spielberg’s Lincoln hit the internet today, and my oh my, is it ever a compendium of cinematic schmaltz and gooey Spielbergian ponderousness. That said, hey, Daniel Day-Lewis looks perfect as Lincoln, so there’s that.
One of the more annoying trends in movie marketing lately has been the ‘trailer for a trailer,’ in which a film releases a trailer letting you know when the full trailer is coming. So now, Lincoln has a teaser trailer letting us know the full trailer will be out on Thursday, September 13th. Great. Dig the slivers of new Lincoln footage below.
All sorts of news bits are here to sprinkle onto your weekend pop-culture dining: A Thanksgiving-based slasher film is happening courtesy of Grindhouse, even more evidence as to why Chevy Chase is still the biggest ass in Hollywood, more than expected Arrested Development is on the way, Lincoln gets an eerie poster, and more. ...
Though we’ve seen a few leaked and unofficial photos of Daniel Day Lewis as our 16th president in Steven Spielberg’s upcoming biopic, Lincoln, today brings us the first official release of an image of Lewis as Abraham Lincoln. And, well, it’s uncanny.
Though we've only seen spy photographs, it looks like Steven Spielberg's Lincoln is about to heat up. We knew it was probably coming out this year, but it was unknown when. Now we know. November 9 is when the film will hit limited engagements (read: New York and Los Angeles), and then November 16 it goes wide.
Curious as to what, exactly, Daniel Day Lewis will look like as our nation’s 16th president in Steven Spielberg’s upcoming Abraham Lincoln biopic (the cleverly-titled Lincoln)? The first picture from the set has been released and, well, perhaps unsurprisingly, the famously method actor looks a lot like Lincoln.
Steven Spielberg has been talking about making a bio-pic of Abraham Lincoln for nearly two decades. For years Liam Neeson was attached to play the bearded president, but recently Daniel Day-Lewis has taken up the lead role in Lincoln. But it looks like the project is finally moving forward as a second cast announcement has been made: Sally Field will play Mary Todd...
This whole Lincoln thing just got serious! After being in the works, postponed, back in business and then delayed again... Steven Spielberg's long over-due cinematic portrayal of Abraham Lincoln has just scored itself an actor that should most likely get things finally moving! DreamWorks has just announced that Daniel Day-Lewis has officially signed on to star as Abraham Lincoln in...
We've known for a while that Steven Spielberg has been trying get his film about President Lincoln off the ground, but it has constantly been postponed due to budget and location problems. Last month we heard rumors that Robert Redford was thinking about making his own Lincoln project, titled The Conspirator with James McAvoy and Robin Wright Penn.
It seems like a...
How is this possible? How is Robert Redford making a film about Abraham Lincoln, before Steven Spielberg's long gestating biopic? Apparently, it's happening and the veteran actor-director isn't wasting any time. According to Yahoo News, Redford will direct a film based on the assassination of our former president. The story won't focus on John Wilkes...
Jurassic Park 4 won't be happening. So sad. I was just talking about my love for Jurassic Park 3. Seriously I was! It's perfect for recovering from your next hang over. It's got enough to keep you interested, but not too much that you actually need your brain. [FirstShowing]
