YouTube just served the Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter trailer up to me, so I took a big bite. Boy, does it make me not want to see a movie that I previously wanted to see.

Let's skip over the usual blah blah about why is this happening again and so soon re: Spider-Man, okay? We'll revel in the casting, the positively defiant high school/Gwen Stacey-ism of it all, and hope against hope that that first person shooter stuff of Spider-Man running around New York isn't going to make the final cut of the film. Watch:

Golden Globe nominations, because of their comedy/drama split, are always a mixed bag. Despite the fact that some excellent movies have come out in the last year, it's been more miss than hit, so we're going to try to pare it down to an essential viewing/incredibly biased predictions. Here we go:

INCEPTION

DIRECTOR: CHRISTOPHER NOLAN

Starring: Leonardo Dicaprio, Ken Watanabe, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard, Ellen Page, Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy, Tom Berenger, Michael Caine

Acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Nolan directs an international cast in this sci-fi actioner that travels around the globe and into the world of dreams. Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) is the best there is at extraction: stealing valuable secrets inside the subconscious during the mind’s vulnerable dream state. His skill has made him a coveted player in industrial espionage but also has made him a fugitive and cost him dearly. Now he may get a second chance if he can do the impossible: inception, planting an idea rather than stealing one. If they succeed, Cobb and his team could pull off the perfect crime. But no planning or expertise can prepare them for a dangerous enemy that seems to predict their every move. An enemy only Cobb could have seen coming.

GENRE: ACTION/SCI-FI
FORMAT: DVD & BLU-RAY
RUNTIME: 130 MINS
RATED: PG-13

Truer words were never spoken. Last night’s Gossip Girl, “Double Identity,” scored higher than last week’s episode in Ed Westwick faces, and it also scored higher for the return of Nate’s thinky face, Blair’s amazing dress, and (could it be?) momentary Dan cuteness. Plus we’re one step closer to figuring out Juliet’s deal, which probably means we’re about to completely flip the switch on whatever we thought it was. Our world just isn’t our world without Gossip Girl.

Juliet Sharp: Life Coach

Juliet and Nate apparently went on a seven hour coffee date, during which Nate spoke only of his relationship with Serena. How could that possibly fill seven hours? “Had sex on a bar stool, never seen or heard from again for a year, didn’t come back for me, slept with a bunch of dudes like my cousin T-Money, got together with me, told me she needed time, so I broke up with her.” Simple! He throws stuff out there like “she cheated on me” because Nate’s still a 12 year-old girl and acts like he didn’t break up with her for wanting to time to think (not that he’s not within his rights, but, like, deed is done, dude). Juliet claims that what Nate really needs is a life coach, a job for which she is ready to apply.
