[QUOTE="Karin Schill, post: 201767"] I love watching Elvis movies and am collecting them on DVD. I have all movies except for three now. The ones I am missing are "Loving You (1957), Follow That Dream (1962) and Charro! (1969). Except for for those I have watched or rewatched the other movies in the past decade or so. :elvis: I would say that I am an Elvis fan. But it's because of Priscilla, I saw her on [I]Dallas [/I]and that's why I watched my first Elvis documentary that she hosted. Then I discovered Elvis music. I agree with you that there is definitely an "Elvis forumula" as a lot of his movies are similar to each other in style, plots and genre. Therefore when I watch an Elvis movie I know what to expect and I expect to be entertained. I don't exactly expect the movie to be good. But I expect it to make me laugh and feel good. There are some movies that surprise me that are really good movies, great even. But they are few and far in between. Then there are others that are favorites like" Tickle Me". Not because it is the best movie out of the bunch but because it is charming and endearing and I have loved that one since I was a teenager. Also I do think that Elvis is a much better actor than he is given credit for. It's really a shame that he was denied the possibility of a more serious role such as the one in "Westside Story" that his manager supposedly turned down. [/QUOTE]
