I was wondering, is anyone here going to watch the new movie about Elvis? Are you excited for it? I can't wait!

Going to see it and very excited for it. Elvis is a funny one. Growing up I found him a little tacky and boring, but then something clicked with me and I just think the guy is pure class from his beautiful vocal delivery to his personality. He had that pure and spiritual thing that MJ had. I just love the guy.

I love Austin Butler so I’m definitely going to watch it.

But then, about 20 years ago, i got a friend who was a fan and something clicked with me as well, and I became a fan, and have loved him ever since

I’m keen to see it but idk if I’ll see it at the cinemas or wait until it’s available to stream/download.
Hopefully it’s good and doesn’t feel rushed… but it does seem to shrink his life down to 2-2.5 hours.

I like Elvis but I probably won't be watching this in all honestly. Not a big enough fan to be interested. Hopefully it's good though, films like this don't have a history of being the best.

Having a movie about his entire life vs a smaller, more containable event.

Big Elvis fan but the trailer didn't get me excited. I cannot get into Austin Butler in this role. He just doesn't possess the charm that was such a big part of how Elvis came across.
Biopics like this only really rarely work for me, and then it takes truly exceptional acting - think Jamie Foxx in Ray or Jim Carrey in Man on the Moon. But even when the lead actor is incredible, the scripts tend to be quite dull and predictable too.

Jim Carrey is phenomenal in it!

Don’t know why those years get such slack. In fact “Elvis“ married my wife and I in Vegas and it was the thrill of a lifetime.🤩 I’ve been to The International hotel a few times where Elvis did his wonderful residency that was captured in the brilliant That’s The Way It Is. I can’t get enough of that era. Love the rehearsals for those shows also. Elvis looks incredible sat around with his band and they perform some wonderful songs.🙌🏻

I'm slightly curious about this but not enough to go to the cinema for it. I will watch it if it's available on some streaming service.
Does the movie focus on his whole career or just one particular part of his career?

If it doesn’t feature an uninterrupted half-hour long scene of him eating his famous Fools Gold Loaf, it’ll be an instant no from me.
