Daniel Day-Lewis took home the Best Actor trophy at the 2013 Oscars for his portrayal of Abraham Lincoln in Steven Spielberg's 'Lincoln.'

The 2013 Oscars are right around the corner and it's always more fun to watch the awards when you have a rooting interest. Even if you haven't seen all the nominated films, we can help you get caught up in two major categories: Best Original and Best Adapted Screenplay. We've got all ten of the Oscar-nominated scripts - from 'Django' to 'Argo' and everything in-between - available for you to downl

Here's a headline we probably could've written this past summer: Daniel Day-Lewis won Best Actor for 'Lincoln' at the 2013 Golden Globes. Can this man be stopped?

Was there ever any doubt that 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' was going to dominate this weekend? Heck, it's probably going to dominate next weekend, too.

As expected, the fifth and final film of the 'Twilight' series opened huge. In fact, 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2' had the second biggest opening of the franchise and when you consider how huge these things tend to open, that's a big accomplishment.

'Lincoln' star Daniel Day-Lewis is intense as an actor, we know that. He likes to get in character and stay in character.

Even when texting his fellow actors.

Steven Spielberg's 'Lincoln' is a biopic we've had our eyes on for some time now. That first trailer was breathtaking and looked like Spielberg in big epic mode, and Daniel Day-Lewis looks startlingly good as one of our nation's most beloved presidents. The film screened in New York tonight, so what are the critics saying on Twitter?
