    With Jerry & Priscilla as producers/executive producers I don't know why they didn't do their due diligence and check the content for inaccurate information. Those were glaring errors. You didn't see those kind of mistakes in the Reinventing Elvis documentary, which I think was much more informative. I'm glad it showed him in a positive light for newcomers and hopefully it will entice them to research more. I wish Netflix would now show the '68 Special in its entirety.

      Oh, i didn’t realize that Jerry was a producer too. I agree, not only were there inaccuracies, but wildly incorrect information. Agreed- this production deserved a little better when informing new Elvis fans.
      And you stated, Reinventing Elvis was superior! I loved it- one of the best things about Elvis I’ve ever watched! 👍🏻

    Thanks for sharing Mark. I agree completely that it's about time they stopped wheeling out the ex Mrs Presley to trot out the same old stories time and time again. We know from some of the claims she's made in recent times that her memory is shot, and she wasn't around all the time anyway. As far as I know, those interviews used for the Elvis voiceover come from the interviews conducted for Elvis On Tour

    • @elvis78ale
      @elvis78ale 4 дня назад +3

      Absolutely agree Sean. Priscilla gives herself too much credit for everything...when she wasn't hardly present ...in the '68 comeback Elvis didn't want her there, as Binder said. She has built her own fantasy... she was there giving Elvis advice about his career, drawing the TCB logo and many other stuff, just to make herself important. I haven't seen the documentary, and Priscilla's presence is one of the reasons. We'll see if I change my mind. What I know for sure is that I will not subscribe to Netflix appositely for this documentary 😂 I prefer watching Elvis's real stuff, without those chatters behind.

    • @theapavlou3030
      @theapavlou3030 4 дня назад +3

      Some of the early commentary was Elvis's interview that Jerry set up for Elvis on tour, as you said. It ended up being too deep a confessional about his career that it wasn't used.
      He was amazing and deserved the 70s era being shown too

    Hi Mark, I watched the 'Return Of the King' Documentary last night. I really enjoyed it. I thought Elvis was treated with respect. I guess the most interesting aspect for me was that...(as an Elvis 'super fan'),.. I've seen the 68 Comback film maybe 100 times now over the years...BUT, last night, I got a fresh new vision of Elvis' brilliance and sheer artistry! For the FIRST TIME in years, I saw Elvis' hunger and 'killer instinct' from the 50's, present in his performance in the sit-down show, and in his leathers, and ...in his guitar playing!!! I had a vision of "the tigerman" again, on that stage!! 👊💥

    I agree with most or all that you have said here !
    I Completely agree on Priscilla...she did not need to be in this show at all ! But Priscilla was also one of the producers ! Unfortunately I'm not her greatest fan either in recent years 😕
    All in all it's a great show .....and I really hope the general public get to watch and embrace Elvis in the incredible time period of his career...
    Cheers 🎶🎙🥂

  • @StephenSchnee
    @StephenSchnee 4 дня назад +6

    I really enjoyed it... apart from the fact that I felt they were being dismissive of his post-Comeback Special work. The 'we know what happened next' sort of makes it seem like it wasn't as good. I actually think he continued to make great music - with some duds - up until his death. But maybe I'm interpreting their comments incorrectly....

    • @markselvisforeveryonechann1153
      @markselvisforeveryonechann1153  4 дня назад +2

      Stephen- no, I don’t think you interpreted that wrong at all. I thought the very same thing now that you mentioned it… Almost as if the last great thing he did was the 68 special. They couldn’t be more wrong. 👍🏻

  • @robbiedetroitstigermanviny8883
    @robbiedetroitstigermanviny8883 4 дня назад +2

    Thank you for making me aware of this, I watched it because of your video. I thought it was very well made, I didn't think there was too much of Priscilla, but like all of the 'official' bios made by Elvis' Estate, it doesn't show anything negative about Elvis himself. Personally I think the info in this documentary was already covered in 'The Searcher', and if anybody asked me, I'd tell them to watch that instead.
    I'd love to see someone do an 'unauthorized' bio regarding 1973 to 1977. Not just to tell us about all the bad things going on with his health, drugs, etc, but to also show us some of the excellent performances during this period.

    • @markselvisforeveryonechann1153
      @markselvisforeveryonechann1153  2 дня назад

      I’m glad you enjoyed it. If you want to see a fantastic documentary on the ‘68 Special, watch Reinventing Elvis. It’s streaming on Paramount Plus. The best one out there. It’s so well made! 👍🏻

  • @TheEccho
    @TheEccho 4 дня назад +2

    Just like you said, I don't have anything specifically against Priscilla either, but at this point it has just become too much of her being involved in anything Elvis related. It's like we can't have anything about him where she is not a part of it. I understand she was a part of his life, but so was many other people, and Elvis 'story should not centered around anyone exclusively.
    Anyway, I haven't watched it yet but I will soon. I knew she was in this documentary but I didn't think she had a big part, and I have to say that this is diminishing by enthusiasm a little bit to know that though.
    But like most people say, this documentary is mostly for the newer fans to learn more about him, and to keep our boy (alive) , so to speak.
    And THAT is always a good thing.

  • @jamesy4003
    @jamesy4003 4 дня назад +7

    Hey Mark I agree WAY too much of Priscilla in this one, I can do without her as well. In regards to the gold suit in Hawaii, the footage they showed was accurate, Elvis wore just the gold jacket, not the full suit, in 61’, and that’s what the footage showed and you’ll also notice Bill Black playing an electric bass not the standup bass from the 50’s. I didn’t care for the comments of “ we know how this ends etc” either, and finally on the # of concerts Elvis did afterwards, it’s actually way more, some sites say 636, others say 757, sometimes he did 3 shows a day in Vegas, TCB ⚡️take care

    • @markselvisforeveryonechann1153
      @markselvisforeveryonechann1153  4 дня назад +1

      If you look at the footage in Hawaii, he has the long sideburns. He had gone to Hawaii in March 1961 getting ready to film the movie of blue Hawaii, and his sideburns were short.
      Elvis wore a gold lame jacket, black shirt, and black slacks when he performed at Honolulu Stadium in Hawaii on November 10, 1957.
      I had looked it up online because I wasn’t completely sure myself! 👍🏻

    • @theapavlou3030
      @theapavlou3030 4 дня назад +3

      The live concert statistics was more like 1176 in total. And yes too much of the ex wife, so I wasn't surprised it only included people who suck up to her (Jerry).
      The Netflix show is for new fans as an introduction, it was adequate. But ended far too soon, his Vegas years were worth a mention as was Aloha. They need to stagger the footage because we will run out of footage. The seasoned fan would prefer Steve Binder's Reinventing Elvis. Note that Priscilla was named an executive producer. She's determined to be his fake widow and wants to go down in history as someone important.
      I loved Billy Corgan's passion, he was right. That wasn't Elvis on a good day, that was this m.....f..... every day! Bruce was annoying bless him, more of that would've been great from other remarkable artists.
      Long live the King ❤

    • @susans7376
      @susans7376 4 дня назад +2

      The video of the Hawaii concert was 1957 and the audio was of the 1961 show at Bloch Arena indoors for the USS AZ charity event.

    • @petervanherp7871

      It's probably a " necessity" to always get Priscilla involved in these documentaries/specials. It's really getting annoying.

    @pcalcas 2 дня назад

    Thank you for sharing.
    I say that Hawaii footage is the november 1957 one indeed, not 61's. And all the Elvis's voice overs are him as far as I know. I could hear some of his 56 'The truth about me', some of a 62 California interview (when he is talking about wanting a family in the future) and some parts of his 72 interview with the directors or crew of EOT (when talking about movies and his feelings) apart from the audio extract from the MSG press conference of course.
    I agree on Priscilla's part, not gonna lie it was most of the downside for me, and on inacuracies being displayed. I enjoyed quality of old footage though, Billy Corgan's passion and shared the O'Brien's thought of people having more empathy for him.
    Thanks again ⚡

    It was okay, in my book. We are not the targetted audience. This is a doc for newbies not the hardcore fanbase. What we see is that Authentic Brands Group (who own the Elvis brand) rolling out a brand story to build on for the future. The historical misses sometimes are just shocking ignorance (something we also see in social media posts by EPE) and sometimes on purpose as building blocks for the brand story. Apart from the ignorance I do not have a problem with them crafting a story that builds his brand for the future.

  • @elvis78ale
    @elvis78ale 4 дня назад +1

    Thanks for the review Mark. I haven't seen it 'cause I don't have Netflix. It seems like the usual documentary to me. Nothing new. The usual footages (which are the only real value), the usual stories by Beaulieu and Schilling and the usual narrative that's "We throw mud at the whole period in Hollywood and show the '68 as the rebirth ", without ever going further . At this point the documentary Reinventing Elvis was able to be a little more original and innovative. It could be interesting for the new fans but for the old ones it's better to put the real material on tv and have fun. Elvis is the only one I want to see. ❤

  • @oehasan
    @oehasan 4 дня назад +1

    What we’re seeing since the movie in 2022 is Elvis being repackaged and resold to a new audience. Older fans have more/less read everything and seen everything by now. What we haven’t seen is a forensic analysis of the years 1970 to 1977, which is often glossed over in these docs.

    Didn't like it because of the ex again. She isn't a Presley anymore, so stop that crap. She is a ex. Which wife in, the world takes the name of a ex back after the family members died? Yep a, money hungry one. She is nothing without Elvis 9she knows it. I think 90% of the Fans don't like her including me. I won't be buying the dvd because of her. And Jerry schilling the same, just for the money and fame 🤮🤮🤮
