All of the themes from his score that have become iconic were original, but that did not matter to the Acedemy, maybe they have changed. It did change which is why Howard Shore was able to win for both FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING and RETURN OF THE KING. It's now a certain percentage of the score has to be original.

filmlover Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 The suddenness is what makes this so shocking considering she seemed to be in good spirits at the Golden Globes not even 48 hours earlier. Sad. RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to it; I am sure he filmed a lot that was left on the cutting room floor..like the first Ed Sullivan appreance, which was crucial in making Elvis into a major star.

dudalb Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Lisa Marie's death also creates problems for that upcoming Michael Jackson biopic which I don't have much faith in since it is being directly produced by the Jackson estate, which is not the case here.

excel1 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) After 2nd viewing, despite being too long and Butler giving a far too serious, somber performance (seriously, guy never seems at ease once in the entire film, the opposite of Elvis's energy. Butler acts like he is playing Bruce Wayne in Batman Begins) this is a well-made film and enjoyable overall. Actress who plays Priscilla is great too.

BoxOfficeFangrl Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 3 hours ago, filmlover said: Did he really have to announce this lmao We've all seen stars use dubious temporary accents in real life before (Madonna, Ryan Gosling), it's just better if they don't address it at all vs providing long-winded excuses. "Talkies" have been around for 95+ years, actors have put on/sung with high or deep voices for roles before, then went back to talking like themselves when the job was done. That's...acting? The alternative is not good technique or normal-like, Bradley Cooper didn't walk around sounding like Rocket Raccoon or Jackson Maine until the end of time. Pretty sure we're going to get at least one Brutally Honest Ballot Guy saying, "Oh, come on!" about the Elvis voice. 29 minutes ago, excel1 said: Butler is teetering on overexposure.
