I would add this to the long list of things Elvis didn’t have a say in while he was alive. Elvis couldn’t stand most of the movies he made and would’ve turned them down if he hadn’t been contractually obligated to make them. Just as many of his songs and movies didn’t match his desire for true depth and an artistic challenge, this cartoon - fuelled by vulgarity and gore - doesn’t seem like something he would have ever approved of, let alone sat through during one of his many all nighters at the Memphian Theater. Too bad the newest Elvis take will only help to perpetuate a negative image.
