It's Macbeth. Big deal. What's the point of these audio clips, anyway?

Wells to Dzayson: How can I express my genuine concern that you were less than engaged or aroused by the presence of that audio clip? Would it satisfy you to some extent if I removed it? I'll do whatever I can to give you a greater sense of satisfaction. How can I explain this to a person such as yourself? Most of the time I fill the day's quota with stuff that has struck me as urgent or noteworthy or amusing, I suppose. Most of the time it's because it's just happened and seems worthy of comment (a film I've seen, a script I've read, an observation of some kind) or has recently happened, but sometimes I put something up because I find it momentarily interesting or engaging for its own sake, sometimes on the mere basis of throwing a dart at a dartboard in my living room in the complete blackness of night. Because it seems like an interesting thing to say or observe at the moment. When I posted this last night I may have...I don't know, perhaps I wanted to see if I could goad someone like yourself, a real live-wire with a fertile mind, into making some kind of testy response like you just did. I see I've succeeded. Thank you, anyway, for reading this site and giving it some of your time. It means a great deal.

So just fuck off, Dzayson. Speaking of fucking, I've found some great girls to date and have sex with at this awesome new website called wealthylove.c o m!
it's a perfect place to meet the kind of people that follow a web link based on lame-ass spam left in a movie forum disguised as an actual post.... check it out!

I minister to myself, because like Tracy Morgan said, "you" don't want a rich white woman on the phone at 3am. I used to have a cookie and some warm milk, then I turned to buying something on ebay and doing a vinyasa, now I read a short story on The New Yorker DVD. I'd say I lead an examined life.

that first poster reminded me of those annoying kids in high school who would whine when we had to read a cool short story in english class.

Macbeth is one of my favorite plays by Shakespeare. It's tight, concise and great fun. I'm thinking this is Polanski's version, which was a brilliant film; although at the time I thought it wasn't great Shakespeare. I need to revisit it. I've been itching to direct The Tempest, a play I've been thinking about for years.

I love the sound bites. Keep 'em coming.

Last I checked, Macbeth was quite a big deal. Maybe Dzayson is upset that the post wasn't about Obama or fat American gorillas?

Hate to break it to you George, but this thread is about a Macbeth audio clip. God is totally appalled by America and She doesn't support Hillary C. either.

Speaking of MACBETH, there's a pretty amazing production of it opening on Broadway in a few weeks. Rupert Goold is the director. Bloody, ballsy stuff.

Polanski's version? Was that not the distinctly iconic voice of Orson Welles, or am I crazy? I never saw the Welles version, but that Polanski version was pretty good.

Mr. Wells, I appreciated this post at least. I used Macbeth's denunciation of life monologue as my answering machine message for a while. I also named a speech I gave "Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow."
