Having lived in springfield, ill and spent many afternoons at Lincolns New Salem near petersburg illinois and currently living very near a town where Lincoln famously debated Douglas, the Lincoln museum twice... i've basically been numbed to the entire idea of the man, it gets old living around it.
But, this movie is going to be great and i hope it makes me a little more proud to have seen many of his homes, offices, walked in his footsteps etc. Lewis is going to kill it. |

Daniel Day-Lewis is great, of course, as he always is. He's definitely winning an Oscar. He portrays Lincoln in his last months as weary, slow-moving, almost telegraphing his impending death... and yet, with his occasional anecdotal speeches, displays the persuasive and subversive charm Lincoln had. (And with a few well-timed outburts, displays his passion and power.) |

I am very much looking forward to seeing this film when it makes its way to our discount theater.
I think a Washington pic should be in the making.

And **** all you people who say Lincoln is too slow moving. God forbid Hollywood comes out with a movie that doesn't involve comic book characters and explosions. Lincoln is a fantastic movie but a lot of you will put off seeing it because there's no transformers in it.

But yeah, I think Transformers as Union soldiers would have been cool to see. |

We typically won't bother seeing a movie unless it's being shown in one of the 21+ theaters with assigned seating. We only go 3-4 times a year, and I'm spoiled by having an assigned seat, showing up 10 minutes early instead of an hour to get a good seat, no teenagers talking/texting through the film, having access to booze, etc. Figured opening weekend we wouldn't have a problem. Instead, all of the 21+ theaters were showing the ****ing Twilight movie. |

I'd love the 21+, but living in bum****nowhere does at least allow me to not fight for a seat most times. 15-20 minutes usually gets me a decent seat.

When you live in a big city like i do, reserved seating is a lifesaver. They usually only offer it on Weekend nights or busy holidays...obviously those are the busiest nights.
