January 22, 200917 yr You all should read Much Ado About Nothing. I thought it was really funny, and it's a lot easier to read than many of his plays.
January 22, 200917 yr Oh yes, Much Ado is fabulous! The bickering between Beatrice and Bene[bleep] is absolutely hilarious. Screwball avant la lettre. And it's been made into a pretty good film version (rare for Shakespeare) by Kenneth Brannagh.
January 22, 200917 yr If we didn't have to study the plays every goddamn year maybe they'd be alright. Doomy edit: I like sheep

But Luhrmann's latest film was a musical, visual trainwreck.
January 23, 200917 yr Who's mom names their kid Shakespeare might of well named him Satan Jr. Pureprayer, you're awesome.
January 23, 200917 yr The real kicker to all this was that my class had to watch the modern-day adaption of R+J, starring Leonardo Dicaprio. Horrible movie. You best be joking. Baz Luhrmann's Romeo and Juliet is just about the only film adaptation of the play that was actually any good.

January 24, 200917 yr Shakespeare, may not have even been his real name. Too lazy to search for the article. Also there were several hundred ways to spell "Shakespeare"
January 24, 200917 yr I haven't read any Shakespeare I hadn't liked. Agreed. I've read Macbeth, The Tempest, As You Like it, and Romeo and Juliet. Liked all of them alot. There's cake through here, apparently.
