@hcome001 i wanted him to speak the truth and remain in his usual literary accuracy, the connection between hamlet and lion king was very good, but how copied whom. whether its the point or not is in fact in itself irrelevant, truth is true.
The Shakespeare rant specifically (that starts at 5:05) just makes me want to marry this kid. Who in high school English or Theatre class has not had the exact same thoughts? Bo Burnham, you are my hero.
Dude, Long Island is not a place to recite Hamlet. Seventy five percent of the audience were like "Shit, I like like can't like understand like this joke, cause like I like-" FUCK YOU AND YOUR SIMILE TOURETTES, AND GET YOUR CELL PHONE OUT OF YOUR BOOB
@xShadowxPhoenix never call an asian person a chink. chink is to asian and nigger is to black person. the sound the triangle made is a chink sound. onomatopoeia get it?
also, does anyone else get the "words words words" reference? That was from hamlet to when he was feigning madness and Polonius asks Hamlet "what do you read?" and Hamlet says "words words words" as hamlet is supposed to be flipping pages sarcastically.
if you actually listen, to him, you realize that he is really intelligent and obviously likes shakespeare enough to read the entire to be or not to be soliloquy from hamlet (3.1.61)
He is probably the most intelligent comedian out there!!..Not to mention his talent!! I bet he gets so much ass... Im straight and I'd sleep with him!!!
Lol i like how people think he's actually bashing Shakespeare... when if people listened they'd realize he's actually explaining how amazing he is... lol
He missed a thing about shakepeares violence towards dogs. In one of his pplays someone threatens to drown himself and a response is "Do not drown thyself! Drown kittens and blind puppies!"
@Jerkweed12 i know, sorry. i had to cut out some parts where bo wasn't saying anything, people were just laughing, in order to get the video under 10 minutes so it would fit on youtube. that's why it skips. and during words words words i know it got cut off, but read the sidebar, i have a full video of the rap seperately.
@zannimask it actually took quite a long time to split the show into parts in the first place, not sure i want to do it again =P but if i have enough time then i'll try to do that.
@ABREEVS Lol awesome. I've seen some videos on here that are much longer, like an hour or more. Maybe find out how to do that and post the whole thing instead :P.
@awesomnessproductons i know, but i'd really rather not split the show up for a second time, it took so long the first time. if i go to another show i'll be sure to make the parts longer.
