Just saw the Elvis movie. I almost fell asleep at times but that ending made my eyes rain, bros.

Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Did it show him dying on the shitter while eating a PB & banana sandwich?
Unfortunately no. I did realize when they showed the real Elvis at the end, that was all I wanted to see. Not that Schlub actor playing him. I could have just watched Elvis on YouTube.Did it show him dying on the shitter while eating a PB & banana sandwich?

I've had no intention of seeing it, so thanks for the confirmation...out of curiosity, did they do the "woke" thing, and push the "Elvis stole everything from the black man", or is it more just about Elvis, himself...?
Mostly more about Elvis. It was more like a 90s and 2000s movie where it made a big deal of his heartbreak over MLK and RFK (Hollywood heroes). It did not make him a cultural appropriator. So it was decent. The ending really was good though.
