Baz Luhrmann's ELVIS (Official TRAILER) The POPCORN Junkies REACTION

[@SirSyntex]

I was an extra on various scenes in this movie and I can tell you Austin Butler was electrifying in his performances on stage and was always in character as Elvis. Baz Luhrmann was an incredible motivator and, as you can see, the background extras gave their all and bought incredible energy to this movie.

[@ExVoto63]

Wow. What a special experience. Thanks for that insight. Butler's world is about to change big time. Looks to be a remarkable performance in an extraordinary film.

The line "and nobody's gonna remember me" brought a tear to my eye. Glad to see they're acknowledging where Elvis got his music from. This could spark a massive Elvis revival. I think in this age of Kanye West and heavily manufactured pop music people have forgotten what a god Elvis was.

I just want to say when I showed my mother this she had the same exact reaction... she covered her mouth and told me he was always missing his other half and that he suffered from massive depression because of it and that he was the ultimate mommas boy, not to mention that at that time his sex appeal was unmatched because no one had ever been broadcasted the way he was and reached millions in a time when no one had the ability to reach the masses... by far my favorite reaction video thank you guys for the video 🤗

[@hilarywilkes7853]

I just rented this and watched it 3 times! He deserves an Oscar!!!

[@ComeAlongKay]

Elvis was like if the Greeks had sculpted a real life person level beautiful.

[@ElvisLass35]

It blew me away!!!!!! Few points.. his relationship with his mum was absolutely normal!!!! Just close :) ELVIS loved food but ate normally with some southern eating thrown in. He did like to eat the same thing repeatedly…. But I am the same so I dunno if that’s odd??? Elvis was a normal healthy weight for the majority of his life. Of course as we get older our bodies change and we can’t eat as much as we once did…. That can play a factor in any human. Elvis was no different. After his mother died ELVIS talked about the grief… he dealt with it as all humans do. Elvis didn’t hand pick Priscilla. They met in Germany, it was also just after he had lost his mother and was in a strange place and in the army….. I think if you look for negatives you will find them. Elvis struggled with prescription medication because he had 9 body systems failing, he needed it but then became addicted. A very vicious cycle. They will touch on it for sure but I believe Baz will sensitively deal with it. With respect. Also the Martin Luther king murder impacted heavily on elvis… he recorded if I can dream after Walter earl Brown wrote it in response to the death. Elvis believed in it!!! As for toms accent…. He was Dutch originally…. Moved to America illegally. I don’t know but I think the accent is to shout it out - Tom wasn’t who he said he was!!! There will be no doubt after this movie about Parker’s start in life - no matter how much he tried to hide it! Enjoyed your reaction:) xxxx TCB always! Elvis Lives!

His weight gain was due to him getting off of uppers and downer drugs.

[@anY-bf9ud]

@@lynncantrell2782 his necessitated medications especially cortisone , caused his weight to fluctuate its a well known side effect, along with water retention as the kidneys are not functioning correct. Uppers or downers would have no bearing on him gaining weight. If anything uppers would make you lose weight.

And downers are know to make someone gain weight.

Really enjoyed your insightful comments Elvis Lass, thank you.

[@va6573]

I don’t know what the right words are, When I watch what he entered into, his voice was magical but for the time he was in the popular culture said unbelievable comments and the same from other famous blues artists when I see Elvis saying he can’t criticize any other artists “There’s room for all of us” what a gifted person he was not just in his voice but compassion to touch so many it’s still being felt in 2022😎 There is only one King and he said that too. Thank you God for letting us all lose ourselves in the gift of music That’s made for EVERYONE!

Brand new Elvis book, Elvis: The Quest for an Oscar, great cover and 536 pages of Elvis. It is a fitting tribute to the contributions that Elvis made to the movie industry. The 31 movies Elvis made always, always entertained everyone and Hollywood should recognize Elvis with an Oscar he so rightfully deserves. It looks like Austin Butler will be nominated for Elvis and no doubt he wins the best actor Oscar….hands down. You will love the book as much as the movie…..Aloha

[@nancybaker6011]

I first saw Elvis as a very young girl of six or so at the drive-in in Flaming Star. I fell in love for the rest of my life. I cried so much when he died in the movie and even more when he died in 1977. He was the most beautiful man ever created with the most wonderful, matchless voice. What a gift to the world!

[@SpeedBird001]

The director spent six years in Memphis, TN, and Tupelo, Mississippi, researching the part. The movie starts with Elvis' early influences by Gospel and Blues music in Memphis - Tom Hanks plays Tom Parker. Austin Butler was in Once Upon A Time in Hollywood. If you watch the red carpet interviews for the release of that movie, you will see just how like Elvis he really is. It will be interesting to see if they show the relationship between Elvis, Priscilla Presley. and Ann-Margret. There's an interview from the Charlie Rose show from 1994 with Ann-Margret which is quite telling.... given how guarded Ann-Margret is of her relationship with Elvis

[@bianca_564]

Do you know the gospel song they are singing?

[@heyrobwest3908]

Sorry he moved to Memphis TN but his early musical influences were in Tupelo Ms! The director actually spent time in Tupelo Ms! He learned the layout of the town where are the 4 white families including Elvis and his mother lived in the black neighborhood. Interviewed one of his black childhood friends from Tupelo Ms in 2019! The gentleman's name is Sam bell but sadly he passed away last year 2021. The interview with Sam bell is available on KZbin!

[@carmelizedolive5832]

This looks cool! I'm glad, because it looks like they're really leaning into the fact that Elvis was HEAVILY influenced by Black American music/culture/dance. Rock and Roll, R&B, rap, soul, country, funk, jazz, blues (and more) -- all pioneered by Black Americans, so any movie that celebrates the origins and source of inspiration for artists like Elvis, and many other iconic musicians, I am super down for. I hope to see the king of rock and roll, Chuck Berry, make an appearance too! I'm all about movies like this -- but giving credit where credit is due is a MUST! This looks like the first of movies like this that really seems to do this tbh. We love to see it.

[@heyrobwest3908]

Country was not pioneered by black Americans it grew out of white folk music oh the Appalachian Mountains and Deep South! Originating from what was called hillbilly music! What you're basically trying to insinuate is that all music originated out of Africa. But none of the immigrants from hundreds of countries in Europe and Asia bring their own culture to this continent!

[@WilliamHenryAlbert]

@@heyrobwest3908 I really believe that was what Baz Luhrmann was trying to convey to the audience by combing blues, soul and rap in the movie. The movie is not a documentary on Elvis' life but it's about the situations around his rise to fame and his influences. I am an average white person from England but when I first heard artists like Chuck Berry, Bo Diddly, Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf and also harmony groups like the Shirelles, Marvelletes and Mary Wells etc, etc, I was transfixed. I have no idea where it came from but I still feel the power of this music to this day.

[@micamac290]

I loved kurt russell in the 1979 film elvis great performance.

[@lifeissweet9826]

Kurt Russell was not good in that part because he can't act. He's always Kurt with makeup pretending to be elvis. Elvis was 6 ft tall, Russell might be 5'9" and Kurt can't sing, and Austin sang all the early songs himself. Austin is also tall. Elvis was always tall onscreen and onstage. This movie shows the real elvis. I don't know how Austin did it. But it got a 12 minute standing ovation in Cannes. I see kurts version now and it looks like a cartoon. I'm sure Kurt is mortified. .

Listen to Elvis singing "If I can dream" (the white suit version). It's Elvis's tribute to Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King after their assassinations. He uses MLK words. It's heart wrenching.

It's brilliant that Hollywood still acknowledge the value of Elvis Presley, his legacy is beyond unique, his story is as exciting as it's sad. His music has led us on a journey for decades, his interpretation of songs he drew from other's has inspired so many, but it's taken this new generation to rediscover just how much Elvis Presley changed the way society thought, politically in the 1950s youth, musically for all and still relevant to this day. A few mistakes in the trailer...gotta be honest... Colonel Tom Parkers carnival days had been long gone when he first met Elvis, so the fair ground ferris wheel scene, didn't happen. The young Elvis in the gospel tent, too dramatic, Elvis may of snook into religious gospel churches, but he wasn't the centre of attention, or stricken with biblical seizures. Elvis working for Crown Electric Company, he still had blonde hair. The 1968 NBC TV Special, the Martin Luther King clip, the Special was being filmed in June of 1968, Martin Luther Kings assassination was carried out in April of 1968 in Memphis, yet the TV announced he had just been shot, poet license or disrespect to MLK, his sacrifice should be acknowledged with respect. OK....you may say I'm being petty, but Elvis is the most documented entertainer of all time, the Graceland archive has millions of artifacts and precise documents, which are also on a database, yet they still get it wrong, and that's just in the trailer, but that's Hollywood for you....it's $$$$ over fact. So if you feel I am being over protective or too pampering to detail, I understand, it's not my fault, it's the ignorance of the Hollywood personal involved, it shows they don't care about detail, so how much do they care about Elvis.....we will all enjoy the movie anyway, I'm looking forward to it's release.

He was smitten the day they met, honoured her dignity till the day they wed and was never forced to.marry her despite what others may have said .
