When you see this on your flist, quote some Shakespeare.

The first thing we do, let's--

Richard loves Richard; that is, I and I.
Is there a murderer here? No. Yes, I am.
Then fly! What, from myself? Great reason why:
Lest I revenge. What, myself upon myself?
Alack, I love myself. Wherefore? For any good
That I myself have done unto myself?
O, no! Alas, I rather hate myself
For hateful deeds committed by myself.
I am a villain. Yet I lie. I am not.
Fool, of thyself speak well. Fool, do not flatter.
My conscience hath a thousand several tongues,
And every tongue brings in a several tale,
And every tale condemns me for a villain.

Haha. Oh, man. I love that play so very much. I've never once seen it done well. Actually, you know what's really sad? The only Shakespeare I've ever seen done well was Hamlet.

With Keanu Reeves. Yeah.

Pacino made a movie called Looking For Richard. It doesn't have the whole thing, but it's got a good cast. Kevin Spacey as Buckingham ♥

There's also the Ian McKellan version.

I've seen Hamlet with Campbell Scott! And I like Branagh's! Or did you mean live?

I definitely saw the '80s version of Romeo and Juliet where they were all slapping each other on the ass and wearing tight leather. Freshman year in HS.

Oooh, I'll have to look for that.

And I love Branagh's Hamlet, but I'm talking about live. Apparently no one in Manitoba can pull off Shakespeare. It's really sad.

Hahaha, my favourite Shakespeare film version is the really bad Macbeth from the 70s with the naked witches. It's ridiculous.

The Polanski one? I saw that. I think my class decided Banquo and Fleance were doing it.
