Recently, the nominations for this year's Academy Awards were announced. Normally, I don't pay much attention to these announcements, as they're usually hoity-toity flicks watched by people with their noses in the air. That's not me, and I don't have much use for folks like that.
However, once I heard the nominations, I got a little excited. One of the nominees was a movie about Abraham Lincoln. Well, it just so happens that I'd seen a movie about Lincoln in 2012, and it was absolutely awesome.
Yes, it was a bit of revisionism -- taking one of our greatest presidents and also making him into a secret killer of those demonic beings known as vampires (sorry, Twilight fans), but it was a great deal of fun.
As you might imagine, I was saddened to learn that this was not the Lincoln film that was nominated, but instead, some secondary film starring some actor whose name is Daniel Day-Lewis (I know, I'd never heard of him either)...
Anyway, I guess this flick might be OK, I haven't seen it. I just wonder if he kills any vampires in it, or is he a vampire sympathiser?
