I would be mad too if I was Macbeth

        As I listened to my English Professor scream "pale face" to my classmate, I started to wonder why Macbeth's journey got him to that point and how the witches predictions affected him. I kind of snapped out of it as I watched the class jolt around from the loud performance from my teacher of Macbeth's anger and energy, we were all pretty bored. As Macbeth panicked around the castle and as we waited for the Birnam Forest to crawl up to the page, I kind of started to understand the intense suspense the story has had built up throughout all the main characters and Scotland. Everything is basically falling apart with the people around Macbeth falling apart mentally. I am just sitting here, imagining how pissed I would honestly be if a forest literally came after me with the guy who was foretold to come after me too, and my wife just died.

        The suspense of the climax of Shakespeare's plays are so underrated and they were definitely beyond its time. It's kind of sad how cliche it all looks with all the time that has built up ever since it's creation. Macbeth's head was just another example of how we don't use our heads when we expect nothing from the most bizarre/craziest things in front of us.

...Act 4 Scene 2....

          Oh my god, this scene.
Macduff just left his family and his wife is pretty much mad at him for leaving them abruptly, telling her son that 'his father is dead.' The son is kind of smart actually, so it sucks to see what happens in the next moment, but his wife is actually super pragmatic as she just accepts that Macduff was a coward that left his family, maybe she could have gotten another man. Oh but as the Mother talks to Ross about how mad he is for betraying King Macbeth. Ross then needs to leave and the mother and son talk about what a traitor is and about a dilemma in the amount of people who are good and bad in the world. Suddenly there is a messenger who panics and warns them about murderers outside, with the murderers walking in, "What, you egg" and to first stab the son and go after the mother...

I am not even kidding, this scene's exposition and character dialogue is so interesting that I genuinely felt bad finding out they were killed, Macbeth is definitely a villain now and Macduff needs his revenge for his egg son.

A similar connection from Macbeth and Christmas Carol...

        It's Sunday, I am still interested in making a blog and trying to make up unique thoughts, I got called over by a friend who had an extra ticket for the sold out show in Corpus.

        I sit there thinking about the Christmas Carol and Macbeth, Scrooge is intensely stingy and greedy with his money, going as far to not care about whether or not the poor die on the street, and Macbeth starts off the story being noble and loyal to his kingdom at first, having a satisfied cast of characters.
I just sat there watching the great performance of Juan/other seniors in the play that I imagined what kind of information it took to change both of them to flip personalities.

        Scrooge was visited by 3 Ghosts: Past/Present/Future, who just straight up told scrooge he was a loser for being mean, where he changes into a better person for the community, especially after finding out about his affect on the people around him and about his greed/power leading him to a ignored death.

        Macbeth was told by 4 Apparitions about the future who knew about the exact details of his fate and twisted, who just straight up told him that he is can become what he wants, where he changes into a terrible human being who actually has Scotland turn against him, ultimately ending up killed.

        It's really ironic how they are both the opposite in themes, but still have the same type of transition through the story from every character's perspective and higher-beings.

Malcom's pretend on being evil sucks

        When Macduff finally meets Malcolm to figure out if he wants to help him overtake Scotland from Macbeth, Malcolm actually is worried whether or not Macduff is still loyal to Macbeth. So Malcolm decides to get into a spur about how if he becomes king, he would be an evil king basically. Macduff starts to become visibly worried about the sudden change of Malcolm's morals, or Macduff probably was confused to why Malcolm was acting all stupid all of a sudden and wasn't sure if he was just joking so he wanted to walk away for a while. Macduff then doesn't want to deal with Malcolm anymore and tells him he is as bad as Macbeth. I am not sure why Macduff is that dumb to not see that Malcolm was just pretending, oh well jokes on him, his family died.

Duncan's place as king...

        It kind of sucks to watch King Duncan killed by someone he intensely trusted, just another reminder that the past sucked in that kind of ruling system. The way Duncan was as a king was actually better than neutral, even though he wasn't an evil king or a bad king, he was respectable and organized Scotland with his powers. Unlike Macbeth who turned Scotland against himself, Duncan ran a good kingdom. I hate how two-faced Lady Macbeth was towards him just to push Macbeth to kill him later for Duncan's power. It was basically Lady Macbeth's fault for letting Macbeth turn Scotland into a dark time.

The three witches are actually.....

        TIME TRAVELERS...
I mean, think about it, who has that kind of power to just know the potion to make anything for themselves and to disappear into thin air, maybe they had everything set up to actually mess with Macbeth and Banquo, or maybe its just a repeating cycle that happens because of these time travelers.
The way the witches just wanted to have a chestnut from Lady, maybe provoked it.
I feel like the Apparitions are actually just some dumb kids from the future in on the joke too.
They probably laughed really hard when they saw Macbeth's head with Macduff.

Okay jokes aside, with actual evidence I might be able to pull this one together. The way the witches come into the story was that they understood that Macbeth would have become corrupt by the way he intakes the information, so maybe they might have come by to give Banquo his royal bloodline or to give Malcolm his throne the quickest way possible. The Apparitions can be leaders of the witches or they can just be different projections from them. The way they influenced them to go against each other might have been a plan to set the time right.

this is the dumbest blog i have made im sorry

Macbeth and Lady Macbeth = Bill and Hilary Clinton...?

        "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" and "You were born of a woman" are two different things, but the two characters might have the same type of personality when it comes to getting rid of their problems. When it comes to the Clintons and the Macbeths, they sure do have a way with stirring up controversy in their worlds. Okay, with the conspiracies involving the Clintons though, it is kind of hard not to get yourself mixed up in what they have done to get to the point where they are now. Especially with the scandals and mysterious investigations throughout the times, it's kind of funny how a similar connection to be made with the way Macbeth and Lady Macbeth work together and how Bill and Hilary go in pair.
        For example, the way Hilary actually sticks with Bill is because he had an intense amount of political power and it was essential for her to make her way up as a Secretary in the White House. It almost is the same case as Macbeth is a noble and Lady Macbeth understands that Macbeth could easily kill Duncan and blame it on Malcolm/Donalbain.
