Reality Check If Shakespeare were a writer today: Willie baby! We're likin' your Hamlet screenplay... Love it! Looove it! However, we have some concerns... We're finding it a bit dark, and it didn't test well with our focus group. What if it was a comedy? We think Hamlet holding the skull is a bit too dramatic... What if, and I'm just spit ballin' here, he was holding a sock puppet?! And what if instead of Horatio, he was a wacky neighbor named Larry? Bob from legal here. It appears a group of monkeys who hit random keys on a typewriter claim they have already written Hamlet. So... Can we change the name to Piglet? Never till this day saw I him.

Actually, not true. If Shakespeare were a writer today, he’d self-publish, release on Lulu and Amazon for the Kindle, and run a Kickstarter to public-fund an off-broadway play. And he’d still kill the competition dead. And there’d be sparkly vampires and zombies showing up in the final act.
