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: HOMER PLAYS MACBETH
Macbeth is also related our daily life. This post evoked my interest because even robberies have
'Macbeth' style. Therefore, I strongly recommend to read the link below:
