Considering Perlman's outstanding job on Sons Of Anarchy right now, he might just be too busy for this as well.

Maybe somebody should actually, you know, talk to him about it?

@Plague: Giamatti says they're talking to him about it, and I don't see why he'd lie or exaggerate.

There's time between TV seasons (esp. of cable shows) to knock out a B-movie or three. Or if the TV show gets canceled.

I like Perlman, but I don't see him as Elvis.

It 's been renewed.

Maybe Ron's stock has risen JUST enough that his B movie days are over?

@Plague: That would be damn fine for Ron, who never gets the respect he deserves.

But the rest of my statement stands.

Dear Meredith:

Hi. How are you? Just here to point out a little typo you must have missed.

Throughout the article you refer to an Elvis impersonator.

I know, I know, it must be embarrassing to realize you mistakelyn wrote that.

Twice.

But no harm, no foul. I once read a review that made the same mistake, and also accidentally referred to someone who thought he was JFK.

Also, you forgot to mention that it is a documentary.

Thank you,

@RAHfanboy: I'd had a long day, my eyes were glazing over, that's how we write it where I come from, it's a new word you've never heard of before, that's not even what I wrote, it's all about the irony, etc., etc., etc.

I don't have anything against Pearlman, but the only reason I saw Bubba HoTep was for Bruce, and I doubt I'll see Nosferatu without him in it. Bubba Ho Tep just seemed mediocre to me, saved only by a great Bruce performance. I wonder if Bruce stepped aside to make his own movie "My Name is Bruce," or perhaps the story of him not appearing in Nosferatu is only a rumor. Either way, I'm not into B-movies as much as I used to be, and I'll probably skip Nosferatu completely either way. So the point of my post? I'm procrastinating from writing a paper due next week.

I say make the best of it: cast a different Elvis in every film dliberately.

First, Bruce Campbell as the old, dying elvis in Bubba Ho-Tep,

Then, Ron Perlman as the just-past-his-prime kickass Elvis in Bubba Nosferatu, and then, Thomas Haden Church as a young Elvis, revived from the dead for a future film about Elvis vs space aliens.

I found Bubba Ho-Tep really dull and not very good at all. Which was annoying because it seemed like a "can't lose" situation.

But Giamatti + Perlman seems like a good match, I'm willing to give it a second shot (how big of me)

@Hadyn:

I didn't get the movie either and it sounded like the most brilliant idea ever to me. Maybe I'll try watching it again...
