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. wow! Making fun of his eating habits? That's like, never been done before

Have ya'll seen this? He is so much like Elvis. He might not look like him, but still, he is so much like him in so many ways

Brilliant. He’s got the mannerisms and personality down. It’s more important for him to embody him than look like him. 😎

Really? I just don't see it at all. The effect on me is no different than seeing Navi dressed up as MJ (of course Austin Butler is a much better actor, but in terms of the suspension of disbelief).

I’ll watch it at some point, but I don’t like how it’s being released close to mjs death anniversary, he should be more talked about

I may be getting slightly ahead of myself but I’m also excited for it because I like Baz Luhrmann’s work. I love the way he presents things visually and got quite excited seeing the trailer. I get that Austin Butler may not sway many of the hardcore fans but from the little I’ve seen of him I think he’s quite good. And he sounds pretty good too, at least to me he does. I’m also looking forward to Tom Hanks’ portrayal of Colonel Tom Parker and am quite intrigued at the angle in which the story is being told. For me these biopics -the ones that I’ve enjoyed; The Jackson’s An American Dream, Ray, Walk The Line, Bohemian Rhapsody- the sum is greater than the parts. If the performance is good to decent, if the script is enjoyable and takes you along on a ride, if the visuals fit the mood and era, and if the setlist is great, then I’m sold. Obviously they all have their flaws but if I’m entertained and it’s got me excited about the artist then I’m happy.

I’ve been seeing a loooot of marketing for this film, and there seems to be a fair bit of word of mouth too. Was at a party last night and some people were talking about it. Might try and see it this weekend!

I can easily watch the film and see him as Elvis. I don’t expect them to look exactly like the real life figure, and I have no doubt that Austin has nailed Elvis’ mannerisms, aura and charisma that is needed to help sell himself as Elvis.

Apparently the Jacksons get a name drop in the movie. Just mentioning that they too perform in Vegas.

Might try and see it this weekend! We look forward to a SPOILER FREE review if you see it before us. Although we sort of know the ending but you know what I mean. 🤩
