Fourscore and... seven minutes ago... we, your forefathers, were brought forth upon a most excellent adventure conceived by our new friends, Bill... and Ted. These two great gentlemen are dedicated to a proposition which was true in my time, just as it's true today. Be excellent to each other. And... PARTY ON, DUDES!

Where’s Abe Lincoln when the Nazis from the dark side of the Moon attack?

One of the best quotes from the book ( Abe is talking to a vampire ) ;

“Judge us not equally, Abraham. We may all deserve hell, but some of us deserve it sooner than others”

Probably one of the best historical fiction/fantasy books ever written. If done right the movie can leave “Inglourious Basterds” in the dust. The end of the book was a disappointment, almost like a movie that just tied everything up in the end to be neat.

I remember really looking forward to ‘Cowboys and Aliens’.
..Same absurdity level as this one.
Will this one be as bad?

Holy smokes. This looks ridiculous. I bet it is a hit.

Well, it is a Tim Burton film...so it will be elaborate, dark, well crafted, and great on some level!

The movie is actually highly anticipated. The premise is that Lincolns mother was killed by a vampire and that every action Lincoln takes in his life is to destroy vampires. The Democrats - southern slave owners are all vampires and he makes war on them and destroys them. One almost wishes it had happened, but alas, we still have democrats.

And the Republicans are still trying to end the scourge of socialist vampires sucking the life out of the body politic.

I liked the book. It was dark and surprisingly thoughtful, with an interesting take on a variety of historical characters. However, I don’t enjoy gore in movies, so if anyone sees this, it will be my teenagers.

There aren't that many movies these days where I see the trailer and think I have to see it in the theater opening weekend.

This may in fact be one of those movies.

The premise is so bizarre, and yet it looks like they are treating it seriously.

There will be no middle ground for people who see this - they'll either like it or hate it.

What?

What is this? How can we be so judgemental of the poor, misunderstood vampire? Why, I just read this interview with a German vampire in the fine English press just tonight. The sheer number of problems they have to overcome on a daily basis is enough to make a brave man weep!

"I haff been un professional vampire for more than three centuries, and I haff seen many changes. Life ist not so gute for the vampire anymore. Just this morning I had to go to der supermarket. Vat vould der vampire need to go to der supermarket for, I hear you ask! Vhy, do you think mein cat ist der vampire also? Nein, Tiddles ist just der normal pussycat, und I need to buy catfood and milk and kitty litter. So off to Tesco I go - I haff to use der bus. In der old days, I could just change into der fleidermaus, but nowadays ze skies, zey are so crowded! Zey ist full of der luftcraft and I vould be splattered livink vhere I do in der flightpath of Heathrow. I cannot even get der driving permit, vat vould zey say in der driving school vhen zey look at mein provisional license und see zat I vas born in 1678? Zey vould say, hang on, zis guy ist der vampire! Stake him! So by bus I must travel, and the bloody price! I cannot get der OAP discount card for der same reason as I cannot get der driving licence. It costs me £2.50 just to get to bloody Tesco! It ist disgusting vhen von hass been paying der taxes for three hundred jahre! And zen, vhen I get to der supermarket, I cannot even enter becoss just as I do not show up in der mirror, I do not show to der infra-red camera thingy vat opens der automatic door. I haff to vait until someone else goes in und zen sneak in behind dem! Und vat do I see, right by the doors as I go in? The vegetable section...vith rows und rows und shelves und shelves full of garlic! Der garlic brings me out in hives und I sneeze everyvhere! Zen der mirrors everyvhere on der valls - people notice dat I haff no reflection and zey know I ist der vampire, so they start throwing der garlic at me! It ist embarrassing for a senior citizen such as myself!"

So John Wilkes Booth was a vampire putting Lincoln out of the way.
