Austin Butler in Elvis (2022) - Episode 101
This week, Mark Harrison from Film Stories rejoins Pop Screen to taunt Graham about one of his most extravagantly failed predictions. Remember our The Dead Don't Die episode? Where we looked at that film's star Austin Butler's upcoming movies and decided there was no way an Elvis biopic was going to make bank in 2022? WELL...
Actually, the strangest thing is not that it made money, but that we enjoyed it. Join Mark and Graham as they discuss their mixed feelings towards Baz Luhrmann, the "crisis in media literacy" and the many ways in which Colonel Tom Parker could have been a better mother to Elvis. There's also room to talk about Parker's role in the birth of PR, the changing image of Elvis following his death in 1977, and why this was the best superhero movie of 2022. Thank you - thank you very much!
There's much more than a one for the money over on our Patreon - as well as Mark and Graham reuniting for a Patreon exclusive Pop Screen episode on Greta Gerwig's Barbie, there's reviews of Red Dwarf, The X-Files and Doctor Who, a look at Asian films that need a UK distributor, and two exclusive podcasts. From the Video Aisle is about to begin a retrospective on the found-footage horror franchise [Rec], and Last Night... is just covering anything it wants to, as usual. Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Threads for more.
