What if Shakespeare had written...

BreakABone · 08-21-2004, 04:01 PM

Well, I'm pretty much certain thay atleast the mass majority of members at GT have had some exposure to Shakespeare whether through a movie based on one of his plays, or his plays themselves.

Anyhow, was just being random with my friend on AIM, and wondered how it would be if ShakeSpeare wrote the Batman script.

Here are some random lines.

Quote:

The Joker: Has thou ever danceth with the devil in the palest of thee moon's light?

Quote:

Batman: To stalk or not to stalk
That is the question
Whether it is nobler to dress up as a bat and scare criminials
Or use my vast fortune to help put more cops on the street

Now they aren't the best, they aren't meant to be just playing around with my friend on AIM.

But how would Shakespeare rewrite some of your favorite movies?

Ok some Jurassic Park ones:

*thinks* *realises he doesn't know Shakespeare*

Ok Poe then:

Peering into that darkness, wondering..... fearing.... doubting..... Muldoon aimed his grenade launcher and blasted a raptor to pieces.

Muldoon: "We could use the lysine plan now"
Hammond: "Nevermore...."

Hammond: "We can rebuild this park, right Ellie?"
Elllie: "Nevermore...."

Hammond: "Will you go back?"
Grant: "Nevermore...."

Malcolm: "When you gotta go, you gotta go!"
Grant (looking at Genero being eaten): "Nevermore...."

I'd like to see her write Romeo And Juliet. She wouldn't have cast Dicaprio.

"Her", "she"

I know both William Shakespeare and Edgar Allan Poe were dudes. And I know, myself and as far as I know, Canyorian are dudes.

So who exactly are you referring to?

Shakespeare was Bisexual. *shrug*

He could've rewritten The Last Samurai. That would've been REALLY cool.

I'm a little confused, what does him being bisexual have to to with the referrence "she"?

dropCGCF · 08-22-2004, 05:23 PM

I said "she" because many theories say Shakespeare was a woman.

How many women do you know with the name "William"?

Please cite these many theories, and where you heard them from, and post a sketch of what he would look like as a woman, we have all seen what he looks like, as he normally is, but i would like to laugh at a female-Shakespeare.

Thank you.

I also believe that Jesus was a woman.

Shakespear...a woman...

in anycase, i hate shakespear because i've been studying his plays for the past 7 years or so an it's just freaking annoying, so i definetly wouldn't want him to write any of my favorite movies.

Yeah, a lot of people are confusing Shakespeare with a woman because he wrote some pretty homosexual things in his sonnets, and some other factors, but.. I don't know.

If Shakespeare was a woman then I must be...JESUS!!

Are you a feminist?

No. I just believe that men have opressed women's ideas and appeals for too long throughout the centuries. Credit should be given where it is due. I think many women masked themselves as men in order to accomplish certain historic accomplishments.

Plus, it scores well with chicks. You should try it.

I believe Jesus was a woman because she hung out with prostitutes, had 12 men follow his every whim, and preached all the "feminine" ideas of love and caring.
