If you are one of the half dozen people who have stuck with Google+ since day one, you have not really had too much to look forward to. All of the cool kids are over on Facebook while you are stuck waiting for Google+ to finally get that big breakthrough exclusive.
Well, your waiting has paid off. On September 13th, Google+ will get the biggest exclusive since it’s inception. Next Thursday, the social networking site will premiere the trailer for Steven Spielberg’s highly anticipated LINCOLN. But, on top of the trailer, Spielberg and Joseph Gordon-Levitt will be joining a Google+ hangout where they will interact with fans and discuss the movie.
Google+ hangouts are not open to the public, but they are having a contest to gain admittance to the event. Google is asking fans to upload a short video to their own YouTube channel with the #LincolnHangout tag explaining who they are, why they are interested in “Lincoln” and what they would like to ask Spielberg and Gordon-Levitt about the film. The winners will likely see their questions answered live in Times Square where the trailer will be premiered.
Most of you reading this likely own a camera or a smartphone and can take a few minutes to enter the contest. We will all see the trailer Thursday afternoon, but you have a rare chance to have Spielberg or Levitt answer your question. What would you ask? Maybe if he ever considered making a sequel to ET? Or what was he smoking when he nuked the fridge in KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL? The possibilities are endless.
On top of everything, we finally get to see footage from LINCOLN. I am very excited to see how much Daniel Day-Lewis resembles the famed President. I am also curious as to what Spielberg’s vampires look like. Oh, wrong movie.
LINCOLN opens in theaters on November 16th
