ALL THE BAD GUYS IN POPULAR CULTURE WANT TO BE LIKE 'MACBETH'

   
      Shakespeare's Macbeth has huge impact on our lives. This impact reflected on the popular culture

such as TV shows, animations and movies. Besides, some TV shows have memorable parts of

Macbeth.

      (SPOILER!!!)  In the movie 'Lion King', Scar kills Mufasa to become king. Macbeth is jealous

of Duncan. He plans to kill Duncan and he has ambitions. In the movies 'Lion King', Scar is jeaolous

of Mufasa. He has abitions and he plans to kill Mufasa. Macbeth and Scar both show selfish desires.

Here is the link of one scene from 'Lion King':

   (SPOILER!!!!)  On of favourite TV serie 'The Simpsons' has special episode of 'Macbeth'. Homer

acts like Macbeth. Montgomery Burns stays at Homer's home. Marge persuades Homer into killing

Montgomery. Homer kills Montgomery. Simpsons has other episodes about 'Macbeth'. In the

episode of  "Four Great Women and Manicure", one of the 4 great women is Lady Macbeth, and

Marge acts like Lady Macbeth in this episode. This episode has also  on of my favourite romantic-

comedy film "Four Weddings and A Funeral". Here is the link of the scene where Homer plays

'Macbeth' style. Therefore, I strongly recommend to read the link below:
