BBC Shakespeare Animated Tales - A Midsummer Night's Dream - Part 1

[macron12]

Good cartoon, but it looks like Titania is on crack.

[ThisSpliff]

what the fuck? In my class this is what we do to practice are punctuation. NO FUCKING WAY!

[Shro0mz123]

wait wait wait. The begining is wrong. Demetrius was supposed to marry Hermia by her father's wishes. The reason Hermia never pursued Demetrius in the first place was because he did like Helena

[davidsteel9]

they went in the bush and did not fuck :(

[Rigbylane]

Nick Bottom is fineeeee.

[volvicstorm98]

If she's a spaniel, by definition, she a bitch!

[anuj18]

Rofl at 3:14 ...I will roar lolz

[eguzmanryan1]

if you were forced to watch this is school thumn up this comment

[Blackcandlez]

@eguzmanryan1 Tell me abt it...-.-" I was actually given a 2hr movie to watch. but nah...

[marcomariaz26]

@tiredofphailspelling everyone back then WAS hideous!!

[mrdropkicker1]

@marcomariaz26 Not THAT hideous. 

[KingWasabe777]

@tiredofphailspelling the reason is called "when bad animators try to make things look realistic"

[JellyTray]

now i'm not so sure i want to play puck.

[joyhorse13]

This looks SO "Yellow Submarine" inspired :) ...

[JessicaLouiseMusic]

i remember watching this yearrrrss ago in year 6. the animation actually scared me!

[EagleEyes203]

I haven't seen those cartoons since I was a kid! :D

[yellowpete79]

hehehehe watching this instead of reading this for tommorows class, thanks

[Frenchrockchick]

didn t any1 explain that the whole point why the part where titania falls in luv wiv bottom as an ass is funny is cos she s meant to look BEAUTIFUL

[giddyrradfem]

I watched this in middle school back in the day! I still don't know why Puck had to look like this.

[Pablo25705]

i thought faries were supost to be cute or atleast decent looking

[rhcheerchic]

i love this episode on the suite life of zack and cody!<333:)

[aujeimune]

Lysander got COCK-BLOCKED.

[Scratcheppy]

Why is Puck a tranny?

[FriedEggsandChips]

@tiredofphailspelling I hear you. I love the animated Shakespeare's - The Tempest, Macbeth and Julius Caesar especially - but this one verges on unwatchable.

[BANGGANG1235]

This is REALLY Scaring : Poor characters :(

[mentalmason1]

hahahaha i watched this at school hahahahahahahaha nice haha

im a banana

[tysonisforever]

It looks like someone drew these drawings with their ass. These things are so ugly. Their all hairy looking. What the heck? hahaha

[YoungHorusMedia]

[gothgirl5499]

[lumalumaday]

[skatergall999]

Me tooo

[Batty1977]

OMG

I thought i've saw this on carton network, but since it's from the BBC I'm confused now :S

[FunnyBelieber]

Lysander is HORNYYY xD

[fizzy292]

[ace20647]

[Frenchrockchick]

@ace20647 YOU MUST BE FINDIN IT WEIRD THAT HE S REPRESENTED IN SUCH A UGLY WAY

[TheFabulousRose]

yak they look so ugly . But i still love the story.

[nickluvheat]

Is it just me, or does Titania look a lot like angelina jolie?

[GuitarAfroDude]

I GOT BOTTOM!!!!!!!!!

[YourFaceWillDie468]

@GuitarAfroDude Why does that sound so wrong. XP Am I the only one who's getting rather irritated by the lilting bedtime-story manner of the narrator?

[emimichan007]

This animation is scary, isn't it ? ;_; i thought this Shakespeare's play was poetic and funny.

[JakobDailes]

Though I like the play, what's with the clothing? It's neither Tudor/Renaissance (when the play was written) or Ancient Greek (the setting). ):?

[Colercoler35]

@CharlieTeeCee Same here :D. But my ex is playing as Demetrius and my best friend is Lysander. LOL.

[RiceIsAwesomelyCool]

[Withlovefromjohnnash]

The animation was better in the Macbeth one.

[thefreeagent4life]

I love Shakespear his stories always amuse me no matter what the moral is. i my english class when every reads it in Elizabethan there all like WTF? i'm the only one who sort of understands it

[shannonhui00]

[Huntgoddessfishery]

@shannonhui00 Bottom! Theseus! ...or Puck...

[ilikegreenhippos]

@shannonhui00 hermia :]



[etoangfavoriteko]

I had a weird feeling about this book. It's like I've heard it before.

[Rosebloom12]

[lmaIia]

Yikes, Titania looks great.

I play Helena, in case anyone was interested in knowing.

[Jakegothicsnake]

@TwistedxJester He kinda looks more like a camp homosexual oompa loompa......

[rockinamber18]

@TwistedxJester yeah now that you mentioned it. he looks like the guy that steals hamburgers.

[PasadenaPadme]

Bottom made me laugh so hard.

[josephskiles]
