What's King Lear?

You asked for it. Per wiki.

King Lear is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare. It depicts the gradual descent into madness of the title character, after he disposes of his kingdom giving bequests to two of his three daughters based on their flattery of him, bringing tragic consequences for all. Derived from the legend of Leir of Britain, a mythological pre-Roman Celtic king, the play has been widely adapted for the stage and motion pictures, with the title role coveted by many of the world's most accomplished actors.

Originally drafted in 1605 or 1606, with its first known performance on St. Stephen's Day in 1606, the first attribution to Shakespeare was a 1608 publication in a quarto of uncertain provenance; it may be an early draft or simply reflect the first performance text. The Tragedy of King Lear, a more theatrical revision, was included in the 1623 First Folio. Modern editors usually conflate the two, though some insist that each version has its own individual integrity that should be preserved.

After the English Restoration, the play was often revised with a happy, non-tragic ending for audiences who disliked its dark and depressing tone, but since the 19th century Shakespeare's original version has been regarded as one of his supreme achievements. The tragedy is particularly noted for its probing observations on the nature of human suffering and kinship.

I did ask for it, and even though I was messing around you were kind enough to not shit on me.  Thank you birthday boy.

I do prefer those 2 films.  The originals of course though the remakes are pretty good.

The original is king. It always will be. The movie is still terrifying and is (typically) in my top 5 horror flicks of all time. The Sutherland one has some good moments but lacks a little logic. The Ferrara one has a few good scenes, but falls flat (I know several folks who consider it the best O_o), and I haven't seen the Daniel Craig one yet, though it is now on HBOGO.

Freaking cold in GA.  47 degrees right now.

Who the fuck hasn't seen Forbidden Planet?  Walter Pidgeon, Leslie Nielsen (in a non-comic role), Ann Francis and Robby the Robot.  A science-fiction adaptation of Shakespeare's King Lear.

i haven't seen it

Wizard is worse and I'm not a Jack fan. I am however, VERY happy you think I am Jack.

I know, very lame. I've been cleaning the place and moving furniture around (dog shedding and pollen time). I just took the trash out and was shocked by how cool it was.

[ShayP]

I had something to say and I forgot.

We should get together sometime and watch some of these films.  I have the Craig version but haven't watched it yet.

You look exactly like I thought you would.

[21st Century Man]

7 degrees or so.

[Dr. MD MD]

The best is when you're on the private sites

The dark web? 

[ShayP]

Yep...Beefy and handsome.

Yup. Collin from Canada gets his balls up when he drinks and talks shit. He is way better. Jack is annoying and Wizard is a smug, fat, blight on the world. The way he talks down to Rich gets on my nerves. You are no better than Rich Wizard, you fat fuck. At least people like Rich.

[Sandra Kristen]

The dark web? 

well a few have black backgrounds lol

I hate the pine pollen.  Gets everywhere.  We have a screen porch and it gets in and covers the couch and the table and it's such a mess to clean up.

That would be cool.
