For my Play I would choose to use Hamlet because he is the main charactor of the play and I thought that it would be appropiate to use him for my movie. I think that Hamlet is the most significant charactor because he is the guy that went crazy and had the biggest effect on the entire play as a whole. It is charactors like him that makes plays as good as they are. I would make my play be set on the top of mount everest because it would be an interesting place to put the story. I also think it would be funny if one of the charactor was to fall off the top of the cliff. I always thought that a play on the top of a mountain would be cool and what better play to choose to do it than hamlet. I would make the time period be current because I like the timee period that I am in so I would not like to choose another one. I would also add some modern elements to it like technology and music. I think that they should wear summer clothes because it would not fit when on top of mount everest and so it would be funny and unusual which is what makes plays good. I also think that it would make them look so cool because people always look really cool with beach clothes on in my opinion. I like to wear beach clothes because they look and feel really good and it is always easy to be in a good mood in them. I think that instead of using shakespeare's language I think that I would give them a more of a ghetto language because it is easier to understand and it dosn't sound so wierd. I also chose it because it sounds really cool and I think that it would be fun to talk this way for a while. I think that it should have more explosions and weapons in the video because it would be cool and make the play much more interesting for the audience and maybe for the actors and directors making the play.

Shakespeare

I think that Willaim Shakespeare should not be read in high school because kids really do not care about his plays and i think they would rather read something that has to do with real events about history and other interesting stuff like that. I personally do not like shakespeare though so that would be my opinion and you may get other opinions if you ask other people. I think books about history are a better fit because I like history and it is more educational than shakespeare because all of the stories that shakespeare tells are fictional and not very close to the real events. I do think he was a very talented man though and could have achieved much fame and wealth if people back then knew how talented he was. Also he wrote his plays four hundred years ago and I think that we should read something more modern. I think his plays are boring because nothing really happens its just all about the good english. I definently would not want to read shakespeare in my free time and I also wouldn't like it if we read it in school. I do however read history related things at home sometimes (not books) because I think it is interesting and would be interested more if we read it in school. We should read books about WWII and other stuff like that because it is more interesting and has more action to it. Again me and Matt Battaglia do not like shakespeare and we would both rather read a book about WWII because it is more interesting and has a little bit more action to it. Not that shakespeare dosen't have any action because it does have some but history books have alot more of it and it can keep me and Matt interested. I think I would be more likely to do well on a test about WWII because I am interested in it and I am more likely to be paying attention to it. This was my opinion on the blog post and I hope you enjoyed it.
