Title: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: K9 on March 07, 2013, 01:57:32 PM Much Ado About Nothing (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6QV0UAifXQ)
This looks like fun Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: pxib on March 07, 2013, 02:31:23 PM It's a delightful play. Kenneth Branagh's 1993 version (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107616/) is also quite good if you haven't seen it.

I recommend this as well. One of my favorite versions of a classic. Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: Rasix on March 08, 2013, 12:01:53 PM Worth it just for seeing Keanu do Shakespeare.

Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: Shannow on March 08, 2013, 12:47:43 PM Worth it just for seeing Keanu do Shakespeare. And a young Kate Beckinsdale...yum. Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: Ironwood on March 08, 2013, 01:43:35 PM Worth it just for seeing Keanu do Shakespeare. It's been a while, but I remember him being actually quite GOOD in that role. Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: Rasix on March 08, 2013, 01:46:36 PM Quote For his performance in the film, Reeves was nominated for a Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Supporting Actor.

Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: lamaros on March 08, 2013, 05:15:44 PM Worth it just for seeing Keanu do Shakespeare. To be fair, he's no worse than any of his other 'acting' performances. Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: pxib on March 08, 2013, 09:12:37 PM Also I think he's onscreen for less than a minute and a half.
Really, like in any version of the play, the people we care about are Beatrice and Benedick. Well... and Dogberry. Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: angry.bob on March 10, 2013, 11:31:50 PM It's been a while, but I remember him being actually quite GOOD in that role. I like to think that you have good enough taste that you're remembering a different movie with some other actor in it. I don't think I could enjoy this version though, I'd be too on edge waiting for monsters to attack. Sorry cast, it's one of the problems that pop up when your entire career has been monster stuff done by the same guy. Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: Ironwood on March 11, 2013, 05:32:27 AM Hey, judging by everything in here, I suspect I may have been pished. It was a very, very long time ago.
Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: pxib on March 11, 2013, 01:13:11 PM For a split second while the thread listing was loading, this one's title was "Much Ado About Nothing New"...
Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: Sheepherder on March 28, 2013, 01:46:46 AM Great backstory for the supporting characters.
"Hey John the Bastard, why are you such a bastard?" "Because I'm a bastard." "Fair 'nuff." Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: Setanta on March 28, 2013, 07:43:37 PM This could be quite good, it has to be one of my favourite Shakespearean plays and the Brannagh version was good - it just needed Neo to say "whoa" and it would be perfect.
Title: Re: Much Ado About Nothing Post by: Khaldun on March 28, 2013, 08:03:33 PM Branagh version is quite good, I think. Michael Keaton as Dogberry is really weird though.
