Viva Las VegasVegas

This week on Hix Nix Stix Pix, we're headed to the bright lights of the Strip for one of the most iconic movies of the 1960s—Viva Las Vegas! Elvis Presley and Ann-Margret light up the screen with unforgettable chemistry, energetic musical numbers, classic cars, and a love letter to old-school Las Vegas. Was this Elvis' greatest movie? Does the story still hold up more than 60 years later, or is it all style and soundtrack? We break down the good, the bad, and how the film plays for a modern audience in 2026. Along the way, we dive into the legendary performances, behind-the-scenes stories, the unforgettable title song, and why this film remains one of the King's most beloved screen appearances. So grab your blue suede shoes, hit the gas, and join us as we ask the only question that matters: does Viva Las Vegas still deserve a jackpot, or should it stay in the past?
