The Moment I Sat Up In My Seat In Theaters

me in bed at 2:47 am after reading the most scrumptious, obscene, mind-blowing smut ever written that made me discover kinks I didn't know I had

So since Elvis fans are discussing the new announcement…I guess I’ll talk about it

So for those who don’t know, it was announced that Sofia Coppola, acclaimed filmmaker and one that I actually kinda like, is making a bio-pic about Priscilla Presley, specifically about her memoir Elvis and Me (which is a great read btw).

But not only that, but casted in the role of Elvis is Jacob Elordi who dated Kaia Gerber who is currently dating Austin.

That’s the most I will ever talk about celebrity news.

Okay.

I love Sofia’s work. I think she’s a great filmmaker and I would love to see how she’d adapt the book with her style.

However.

The movie won’t be out for a while. Casting announcement means this thing is probably well into pre-production. And a big budget Hollywood bio-pic from a critically acclaimed director that will want to be an awards contender, won’t be out for a while. The guess being thrown around in the fandom is 2024.

However.

The casting announcement coming out practically three months after Elvis (2022)’s release while we’re still riding the high, and even the movie itself, feels like a deliberate cash grab to capitalize on all this new Elvis hype.

And that must suck for Austin and Jacob who are now going to be pitted against each other and constantly compared.

But also yeah. Austin worked his ass off for this role and now someone else is riding his high. That must be unfair.

And yeah. I’m not sure how Priscilla and Lisa Marie will take to this.

Idk how the book rights work with this whole thing. Like idk if Priscilla owns the book rights but the vibe I’m getting is she wasn’t consulted and I have no clue how true that is. But Elvis (2022) was the most accurate film on Elvis’s life and it was the one the family was the most happy with. So this does feel a little insulting that this announcement is riding the high of a film that was truly a passion project for those involved.

So what are my thoughts?

I don’t know dude. On one hand, I’m interested in another version of this story especially done by another pretty great filmmaker. But on the other, it feels so cash grabby and like a PR stunt. Like Jacob being cast is not a coincidence. And I don’t want to compare the two, even though I think Austin is probably going to be the better of the two

We’ll see what happens but yeah this whole thing does leave a bad taste in my mouth

Does anyone else get irked when an author uses "shook their head yes" instead of nodded?

Like it's a small detail that I notice EVERYWHERE and always makes me twitch in frustration.

idk tell me if im delulu

More like Elvis the fuck now I’m horny

They are so 🥵🥵

a year ago today these vman photos dropped 🔥

austin as the thumbnail so so true:

that's our movie star!!!!

i’m so proud of him wahhhh 😨😭😁🫠

Will forever love Austin and his beautiful voice😘😘

Happy birthday to our baby boy. We will love you forever 😘😘🤍🤍

I just noticed that Jacob is wearing a plain suit for the wedding.

I couldn’t find a clear picture of Austin’s suit for the wedding scene but where the light shines on his shoulder, you can see the pattern.

The whole Elvis movie crew put in soooooo soooooo much work for it to be amazing. I mean Catherine with the costumes????? She’s a genius and I still can’t get over how they didn’t at least win an Oscar for costumes, hair and makeup and acting. I thought Sofia would at least put in effort for the costumes (look cheap and are inaccurate), hair (really badly done) and makeup.

Where’s the super heavy iconic eyeliner and lashes that Priscilla wore all the time? yes she’s wearing lashes and eyeliner, but not as much as Priscilla did.

To this day I’m still mad Elvis didn’t win a damn thing 😭

This amazing man was overlooked today as was the whole Elvis cast and crew. I don’t usually post just sit in the background and read your amazing stories but today I’m so angry. Austin not only perfected Elvis once….he did it three times for each decade. The 50, 60, and then the 70s.

Austin had to learn to sing, dance, talk and act like Elvis in three different time periods. The mannerism, the underlying rage, the vulnerability and most of all the humanity. If after all that work and dedication he is not worthy of an Oscar then there is something seriously wrong with the Oscar’s …..it’s broken

Elvis was with Austin thought out this journey we all saw it…. Austin breathed life back in the most iconic rock and roll artist the world had ever seen and brought his to the attention of a whole new audience. Baz brought Austin to the attention of the world and we thank him for that. Elvis was done so proud and Austin worked so hard as did the whole Elvis crew. We also know now how flawed the system in Hollywood is.

I have loved sharing this Elvis journey with all of you here and will continue to eagerly look for your amazing stories to keep Elvis in my heart.. an Elvis girl through and through

We will continue to love and appreciate both of them but knowing that Austin’s time has past and he needs to move on with his life no matter how sad that makes us. Hugs ❤️🇦🇺
