did Tommy Lee Jones and Sally Field completely take anyone else out of this trailer? they just looked out of place. i dont know about this, something else was off in that trailer. I dig American history and all that, but i cant imagine this not being boring and preachy as shyt

TLJ definitely took me out.

I will say then, that I am not nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races; that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of making voters of the free negroes, or jurors, or qualifying them to hold office, or having them to marry with white people. I will say in addition, that there is a physical difference between the white and black races, which, I suppose, will forever forbid the two races living together upon terms of social and political equality; and inasmuch as they cannot so live, that while they do remain together, there must be the position of superior and inferior, that I as much as any other man am in favor of the superior position being assigned to the white man.

Fifth Joint Debate at Galesburg. Mr. Douglas's Speech. Lincoln, Abraham. 1897. Political Debates Between Lincoln and Douglas
He's on of my favorite President (for how he politically sonned the shyt outta the South) but lets be reality. He's a filthly cac who called to free slaves because the South had too much power and America was becoming Industrialized. The man opposed slavery because it made the US look bad. If I met the man in person, I'd shake Lincoln's hand then proceed to shyt in his breakfast right after I screen him a video of me impregnating his closest White female descendant.:yeshrug:

Schindler's List?
Saving Private Ryan?
Munich?

Still way too early to say whether 'Lincoln' will be more like those films or like War Horse....

That trailer is 100% War Horse status. So poorly done.

Looks cheesy
TLJ and Sally Field don't look right in it at all
Constant fading for no reason

Spielberg needs to hang it up and stick to producing if this movie is anything like the vibe of the trailer is giving off.

trailer seems kinda cheesy...dunno if I'd be checking for this if DDL wasn't in it. But I gotta see it for the performance

DDL looks on point in this flick.. My problem with Spielberg directing it is that he's probably going to play it safe, instead of being more objective about who Lincoln really is. If it's a well made movie.. I'll give it a pass.. I just hope he doesn't screw it up as bad as Eastwood did with J Edgar..

I'd be lying if I said I didn't lose some respect for Lincoln after finding out he truly believed blacks were inferior/dumber than everyone else.

SOME respect?:shaq2: dude only freed the slaves for purely economic reasons. The South had an advantage over the North as they could have slaves work year round while the North's winters were too cold for labor. fukk Lincoln and anyone who loved him

As much as I love DDL, can't lie, almost fell asleep watching the trailer alone.

Never been big on Spielberg, but interested to see what up.

Spielberg has lost his touch. I will obviously give this film a chance but I'm not expecting much outside of DDL delivering as he always does.

You know damn well if this was another film about Jews and their struggle that Spielberg wouldn't be so quick to leave out historical facts.
