Movie Posters: Prometheus, The Dark Knight Rises, and Abe Lincoln

Some really cool posters have been hitting the Internet over the last week so I'm going to do a quick post about them.  Before I get started, be sure to check back tomorrow for the most massive edition of Trailer Trash in the history of this blog.  There have been tons of trailers posted recently and I'm going to talk about at least six tomorrow.  Now for the posters!


Yep, Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter, the book that raised a million eyebrows is getting a big-budget Hollywood adaptation.  The cast includes:

Benjamin Walker as the 16th President of the United States who moonlights as a vampire hunter
Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Mary Todd Lincoln
Rufus Sewll as the lead vampire
Alan Tudyk as Stephen A. Douglas one of Lincoln's political rivals

I don't know much about the lead actor, the book, or the director so making any bold claims about this film would be foolish but I'm still irrationally excited for this.



Not much for me to say about TDKR that hasn't already been said.  This poster is pretty awesome though.  Can't wait for July 20th.  Check back tomorrow for some comments on the latest trailer.




I won't beat around the bush regarding Prometheus, I expect this to be awesome. Originally planned as a prequel to Alien, this will be Ridley Scott's third science fiction film after Blade Runner and the aforementioned Alien , two classics in the genre.  In addition, Prometheus has an awesome cast including Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender, Guy Pearce and rising stars Idris Elba and Noomi Rapace.  The first trailer for Prometheus is set to release Thursday.
