I hope he does... I don't know if it's a tight year, I haven't been paying much attention.

best actor's still too early to tell (lots of stuff premiering at TIFF still) but he's definitely up there with colin farrell and hugh jackman so far

I haven't finished watching but I like what I've seen so far.

Eh, I just don't care about Elvis.

[innocentanalyst]

I like some of his songs, but my mom is obsessed with Elvis! I'm glad she was able to see him in concert before he died.

I didn't care about Elvis either (nor did I know much at all about his life), but Austin was SO good in the film that it didn't matter.

I didn’t either until I watched this movie lol.

I'm not really into biopics, but I may be just high enough to have enough interest to watch and stay lol

I'm not super feeling this one either, but it'll be fun to watch together I bet!
