Hmm...I don't like Shakespeare too much, but we're reading Macbeth in class and it's OK. I'd much rather see it acted out than read it in a stuffy classroom. Okay, the book was boring...but the movie was so gory. Especially when Macbeth's head was chopped off at the end...ahhh the images. I hate blood. Romeo and Juliet is a classic. |

I like Hamlet..
Hmm. Am I the only one who completely hates Macbeth? I mean, it was very well written (hands down), but something about it made me hate it. Maybe it was the way they taught it to us.. I don't know. Taylor`` |

Hrm, I thought I replied here.
I love Shakespeare. I even gave my son the name "Shakespeare" for his middle name. Yep, he'll kill me one day. My favorite is 12th Night for comedy; Othello for drama. |

I haven't had much luck with Shakespeare. I read Romeo and Juliet and I didn't particularly enjoy it because it was just so...mushy. Macbeth was better, but I'm still not getting why Shakespeare was so great. I guess it's all the iambic pentameter. I've been meaning to get all of Shakespeare's work - there must be something I like, right? Haha, I just have issues in giving up on classic authors.

I liked Taming of the Shrew, Twelfth Night, and As You Like It. Well, not so much As You Like It, but it was pretty good.

I haven't read any Shakespearean plays outside of school reading but my favorite so far would have to be King Lear. I faintly remember analyzing Julius Caesar but I remember not understanding a thing.

Twelfth Night
I love the plot-line. I find it funny how some people try to watch or read Shakespear and focus so hard on trying to understand it, that they miss all of the funny parts of the play. I'll be watching Twelfth Night with a friend and I end up laughing while they look at me like I'm crazy. ^_^;; |

I havent read much Shakespear, becuase I usually wait until we do it in school. I really liked Romeo and Juliet, and A Midsummer Nights Dream is my second favorite. I think had I have been in a different class this year, while reading Macbeth, I probably would have liked it...but my class just ruined it for me. They had no interest or respect...and its hard enough to get into it when the teacher is playing the tapes.
But yeah, Romeo and Juliet is my favorite I think. <3 rememberTHEforgotten |
