looks dope tbh

i just wanna know if he’s gonna be a fatty at the end

The advertisements for this are f***ing relentless

Even Doc Strange 2 didn’t have this many ads

Death scene gonna be so corny

I don’t know bout this

I f*** with Baz but it’s f*** Elvis

I cant tell if tom hanks is fat or its prosthetics

anyone seen this yet? Ive heard some pretty positive things about this.

Heard somebody claim it was already too long, lol.

No critics crying for inclusion of the 14 year old girlfriend that factually happened?

Sounds about white to me

Tonight

And?

It was a bit of a mixed bag, a lot I liked and a lot I was puzzled by. Austin totally killed it and was great in the role. Tom Hanks didn't annoy me too much but I can see him taking a lot of people out of the film. It was structured a bit too much around Tom's character than I would have liked though. I also didn't realize how much ground needed to be covered. It zooms by so many big moments in Elvis' life it both feels to fast and too long at the same time. Some of the editing choices weren't great and made me wonder if they needed to spend more time looking over that aspect especially if the full version was closer to 4 hours long. While I liked the musical performances I did go into it wanting more of a Moulin Rouge bombastic style with the music and didn't feel I got that so much. I also thought the side characters didn't get much time to shine or stand out especially with how fast they come and go in the story.

With all that it was still a lot of fun and worth checking out, I just think it could have been better.

I don’t know s*** about Elvis & all this buzz about Austin interests me so sounds like I’m gonna watch this next week.

Maybe a 4-hour directors cut will come out someday & iron out those issues

pretty good

was it like an actual biopic or was it like a musical like Rocketman?

I didnt like rocket man because of the musical stuff

nah its def a biopic not a musical altho it was very musical if that makes sense lol

austin butler carried, he was really good

gonna see this tonight its been a while since we’ve had a biopic like this

I’ve read there’s only like 4 elvis songs and he doesn’t perform a few of them so it sounds more biopic (with pulpy/ cheesy editing and maximalism)

way more than 4

just the ones i recognized:

hound dog
suspicious minds
jailhouse rock
can't help falling in love
trouble
in the ghetto
heartbreak hotel

pretty much all the hits tbh

Oh that’s good i read it was light on them

Does he perform them all or is it montage/medley type quick things?

he perfoms a good amount of them altho a lot were just in montages

A biopic that ignores all the shady s***, that's never happened before

Oh of course. No mention from the press about it though?
