Tonight I watched Laurence Fishburne's Othello and was totally into it the whole way through, but the other night Laurence Olivier's Hamlet was on TV and I could only watch like two minutes at a time without getting bored and flipping channels.

I feel bad because isn't that version of "Hamlet" supposed to be a total classic? It won Best Picture that year and everything. But I was just like, "Talk faster!! DO SOMETHING!!!"

I hate the idea that I fit the stereotype of someone from the Internet age in that I have very little attention span. I don't want that to be true. :(((

Lawl I just realized I am talking about Shakespeare. Maybe just having an interest in Shakespeare means I have more of an attention span than most of my generation? xDDD;;;;

OKAY THIS POST SUCKS, my apologies. D:

Also I forgot to write down my work schedule today. So, uh, I hope I work when I think I work. :X

Man, Hamlet.

I actually really like it. But that's probably just because it's the play I've read the most. ^^;

But let me tell you how I have seen all of the film versions of Hamlet that were around during high school, and how that one is by FAR AN AWAY the best one. (We Do Not Speak about the Mel Gibson version. *traumatized*) Except, of course, for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead, which doesn't really count unless you already know the play anyway.
