What other ambitions or dreams do you think Elvis had, but didn't pursue? :hmm:

Geez,that's a hard one Franny:!: All I know is that he was planning on making a movie about marshall arts.Perhaps his ambition was to get into movie making.I guess the only ones who could answer this are those that were around him and those closest to him,like Priscilla.Trouble is everyone is to busy talking about negative things. :hmm::hmm:

I heard he had an ambition to play football. but IMO i think this might have just been a passing ambition, as he enjoyed playing it privatley.

Elvis supposedly was thinking about producing movies and maybe going into directing to direct action movies.

Yeah, that's what he said on one of the interviews in the 50s. But, he also said that the coach hadn't let him play because he had sideburns :blink:
I don't know if you can count this as an ambition, but I think he really wanted to have a real family and spend more time with them :unsure:

I think originally he really wanted to be a gospel singer but going to Sun Studios changed all that.

I think that one of his ambitions was able to make a good films,and was recognized as a good actor

[Unchained Melody]

He wanted to be appreciated for being a serious dramatic actor, he wanted to write a book, called through my eyes, he wanted to make a karate movie......
