Awesome, Awesome, Awesome. Who needs cliff notes/movies/books when we have DoInk to tell the entire plot of Shakespear's Macbeth? Really well done, loved the characters.

AWAOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

This has got to be the best CLIFF NOTES Shakespeare drama I have ever seen. REALLY. I mean - why read all that stuff no one can understand anyway? I have gotten more out of this little clip than I did reading the book. I could write a whole paper on this. THIS WAS AWESOME. PLEASE MAKE MORE!!!!!!!! LOVE IT!

Worthy of "The Compleat Works of William Shakespeare Abridged!" I'm sure the bard is rolling over in his grave. Good job. Funny.

haha i didn't expect this big of a response.

we're doing hamlet next, but in like a week. maybe i'll do romeo and juliet now, we studied that last year. or julius caesar, we studied that like three years ago. :/

okay, last year my school did the play so i pretty much know the whole thing line by line, and you did a good job, it was funny, but what happened to Banquo's ghost?

thanks. like i said, i got lazy and decided he wasn't very crucial to the plot. now that i think about it again, though, it's kinda lame without him... oops.

"LIFE IS BUT A WALKING SHADOW. A POOR PLAYER THAT STRUTS AND FRETS HIS HOUR UPON THE STAGE, AND THEN IS HEARD NO MORE. IT IS A TALE TOLD BY AN IDIOT, FULL OF SOUND AND FURY SIGNIFYING N O T H I N G . . ."

Very nice, never read it, but based on viewers reaction guessed it had to be somewhat similar to the book... man, i'm gunna act this test!

Awesome animation!!! BUT NEVER say the word "Macbeth" backstage during a performence of any other play!!! it's a superstition, but it seems to be true for some reason.... O_O

i just recently studied hamlet....would you consider it copying if i did something similar to this for a different play?

phineas

Please delete the last post I did just before this one. I copy & pasted in the wrong window, darn multi-tasking. I love this clip though it is awesome.
