Liam and Shakespeare would 100% have been best friends back in the day.
475 likes and no replys. Lets fix that!
He laughs like a person Shakespeare would like
As an actor and scriptwriter with a Theater Degree, I am so happy to see someone outside the theater world enjoy Shakespeare. Also, all of your ratings for each play I 100% agree with/can respect (except for As You Like It, that’s my favorite Shakespeare comedy so it will always be a 10 for me, especially because I saw it at the Globe Theatre in London so I know I’m quite biased). And yes, Falstaff is Shakespeare’s best character. He’s in like 10 of Shakespeare’s plays, and that whole “Cinematic Universe” thing is not incorrect. Often Shakespeare would do that I believe because it’s easier to use characters from past works then to create ones from scratch. Also, I can very much relate to being able to watch a Shakespeare play live with ACTUALLY trained Shakespeare actors. It’s quite incredible to witness. Love, love, LOVE this video. P.S. I would go to that sandwich shop
I saw Hamlet at the Globe in London in 2018 - best experience of that whole trip!
Woowww HUGE respect for the amount of work you put into this video!! I loved every second of it!!!
Bro as a theater kid who’s teacher REALLY likes shakespeare (seriously. Our school put on 2 shakespeare shows this year. Technically 3 if you count Something Rotten but whatever) I have developed an almost pavlovian response to anything even remotely referencing Romeo and Juliet, or Hamlet, or Midsummer. I am filled with an intense urge to study everything shakespeare but dear god I don’t have time
He never really left… he was reading Shakespeare that whole time 😂
He got a point tho
I was waiting for Liam to comment on "What, you egg! [Stabs him]" from Macbeth but he never did....my expectations were clearly scrambled
AHAHAHHAHAHAHGAHAGAHAHAGAH 😂😂😂
BADUM TSS!
I guess you could say you were EGG-CITED!
@@chichou7the translation says bath tss
I LOVE THAT PART IN MACBETH HAHAAHAH
12:56 - Guys, this is where he ACTUALLY smiled fantastically.😆
Liam: I've read the compleat works of Shakespeare.
Me: What about his will?
[Exits pursued by a bear]
Exeunt* (I think)
Why is he not uploading?
Title of the new video : “I read everything Shakespeare ever wrote”
AH-
FR
Oh my god he's back
This guy took 5 months off to read everything shakespear has ever written. Respectable
it took me half of my acting degree to be able to even understand Shakespeare when watching it let alone pleasurably read it! hats off to you Liam this is a huge feat that you have undertaken and you made it SO funny!
The next video: Painting everything Shakespeare ever wrote on my wall
This might be the first time in ages that I've seen a 35 min video where no one asks me to like share or subscribe, become a member, or a patreon, or buy their merch or sponsored item. And man spent 3 months on this video.
You're a madlad Liam. Stay this way, lots of love!
I AGREE!
FR
also its been he's been on youtube for like 2-3 years now how does he only have 2.1M subscribers
Honestly I don't mind reminding ppl to subscribe bcz it actually gives you a huge boost compared to if you don't. The other stuff gets annoying like patreon channel member bs but sponsered stuff is like, he's gotta make money yk
@@sameertokhi7443 I've been a longtime sub, and every few months i think he has quit, but then he comes back harder than a 90s trend
Okay Liam the production quality? The cinematography? The editing? The acting? The script? Brilliant work Liam, simply brilliant.
I would even say it was, fantastic
Smiles fantastically
then exits pursued by a bear
@@docpi3141😂 yep
although it did take 5 months
Man, this kind of content is soooo great. The innocent ideas of RUclips's early years combined with modern high production quality. (chef's kiss) This is honestly what I think the future of RUclips should look like.
Amen.
I believe that Shakespeare always intended his Prose to be spoken in an Aussie accent
I’d argue scottish bc thats the closest we can get to old english
He's Australian?! Wow the whole airplane thing is even more silly now! 😂
DO NOT EVER LEAVE LIKE THAT EVER AGAIN 😩😩😩
Ayo
Bro he took a break to work on THIS video and maybe some others calm down crybaby
@@Thefancy_sea_Lizardbro stfu, she’s probably been a fan for so long, and if you were, you’d know he would have videos out weekly. So u calm down crybaby that someone is actually happy about Liam being back. It’s not that deep.
@gasturbinecalm down all hes saying is that he took a long time to upload
@@lmtcasualthank u 😭 ppl are taking it so seriously lmaoo 😭
34 MINUTES, THATS A WHOLE DOCUMENTARY
|
V That's a big number
A whole documentary by Liam Thompson this is the longest video he’s ever done
We Shall Watch It Anyway!
34 minutes isn’t that long but for a liam thompson video that’s the equivalent of like 17 hours
The *dedication* to saying "I will never read this book" to "You know, I should probably read it now" and then to COME BACK to it after the discouraging start. Major props. Wondering what book I have I may want to try this with. I love the play recreations, too!! 😃 I also liked hearing you say 'I think I understood about 1/3 of it'. I feel that way reading Shakespeare too, and I think it's still worth/enjoyable reading even when that's the case, but I wasn't sure what others would think 😅
I’ve actually performed many of these plays so watching Liam read through them made me unexplainably happy😭
My own unread complete works of Shakespeare is staring at me as I watch this video
You can do it!
Read along
We should start a shakespeare reading group or something xD
Because same.
I have mine sitting on my shelf right now. I'll start it if you'll start it.
@@bookwyrm8181 ...Fine.... I'll start. I am usually quite busy so it may take a while, but I'll start.
The man, the myth, the legend is back.
*T H E G O D*
who Shakespeare?
I was starting to get concerned about him 😂
SHAKESPEARS BACK??? /j
HES BACK BOIZ
STOP THIS VIDEO IS SO GOOD, THE EDITING, THE DEDICATION, ITS SO ENTERTAINING GOOD JOB LIAMMM!!
Three things: I'm so happy you're back; this video was somehow a blast to watch, just seeing you read; you've inspired me to read MacBeth as it happened to be in my room, and I'm loving it.
As a person who played Bottom in a production of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”, can confirm it is best Shakespeare play
nah bro
From one Bottom actor to another, you’re a legend
@@chessplayer6632 From a puck to a bottom, respect
As someone who played Helena
I can also confirm its the best Shakespeare play
from a moth to a bottom, it is the best play
"MM YEAH KNOWLEDGE" im now using that everytime i enter the library.
15:22 So basically Liam’s mad that All’s Well That Ends Well didn’t turn out to be the Shakespearean equivalent of Legally Blonde
I absolutely loved this. from the actual concept to the content to the costumes to the comedy, I was smiling fantastically the whole time
33:16 *Smiles fantastically*
Dang it! Even I saw that and was gonna comment the same thing! Ahaha but there you go, glad you noticed!😂
W comment!😂😂
The fact that when I got to this part I read your comment was just- woah
Bro took him 5 months to finish this book😭😭 welcome back brother!
you are the epitemy of *Quality over quantity*.
I’ve never seen someone so happy while reading Shakespeare 😭 inspiring honestly
only thing more diffacult than reading Shakespearean dialogue is understanding Liam's numbering throughout this video.
you mean the ratings he gives to the works?
@@mateuszszulecki5206yeah, after a while I think you realize it's the ratings but he never explains it lol
It took me a minute to work that out too.
Right, like only like mid video he explained it's a rating😭
I thought it was just me lol
'your not actually reading with me.. are you..?' Ouch that hurt
SO GOOD. The betwixt bit gave the biggest michael scott vibes. Your comedic timing is amazing and I loved the pacing of this video!
Liam: Uploads Video
Me: [Smiles fantasticly.
Video: Ends
Me: Ahw son of a bulls pizzle
The fact that you managed to turn reading a book into a very entertaining video is astonishing to me. I think my favorite aspects of it were the shots of you reading always having the timer be visible, and the montage of your reading journey at the end. It was nice to see someone else be inundated with the world of Billy Shakes, personally saw Cymbeline at the Royal Shakespeare Theater so it was cool to see you enjoying yourself there!
I'm appreciative of how seriously you took this task, not merely reading the material, but comprehending and enjoying it to the point that I vicariously felt your mirth. Well done, young man; you're a shining example to follow.
“he has killed me, mother!” is one of my fave lines
Just saw Ian McKellen as Falstaff on London's West End. Was brilliant! And Liam, you absolute madlad, the lengths you go for your videos! Respect
“I love just grabbing a big chunk of the book you know, it’s just like mmm KNOWLEDGE” -Liam
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Regarding the perseverance of aspects of humor across the generations, you will be delighted to know that the oldest recorded joke in history is from 1,900 BCE Sumer about women farting on their husbands.
“Hell is empty and all the devils are here” Instantly made me think of my Husband (Aaron Warner)
God I have never seen a video like this on RUclips for a long time. I laughed and enjoyed FANTASTICALLY 😂❤
Liam’s little laugh after he reads something funny🥹
This is what Liam’s been doing for the past 5 months
Your editing and story-telling have improved so much since you started this channel! And it's been a pleasure to watch you grow. And to see the crazy stuff you do along the way!
Omg Liam I loved watching this video! This is so far the best video you have made! The concept, the flow, the ups and downs that came in betwixt and finally the fantastical smile at the climax! Everything was perfect and worth the wait of 5months!🙌🏻🙌🏻
When the World needed him the most, he was reading Shakespeare
What an accomplishment! I’m so glad you’ve returned, been waiting for this moment for 6 months! ❤❤❤
w fr bro rlly spent 6 months to make a video. respect
**me* *boutta* *crash* *into* *my* *brother’s* *bedroom* *to* *say* *that* *our* *favourite* *RUclipsr* *finally* *posted* *again-**
LIAM YOU’RE BACK WITH A MASTERPIECE!
33:21, Liam smiled fantastically
Thank you Liam for your generous service reading Shakespeare to entertain us
the production quality of this video was more than worth the long wait. just astounding cinematography, and you genuinely caught me off guard with the ACTING bro. chef's kiss.
This is so cool! I really want to read some Shakespeare plays now, thank you for the hard work, you’re a great role model!
Liam is literally the only person on earth who can make a 30 minute video on Shakespeare engaging and entertaining and interesting
POV what teachers expect students to do after they tell them to read a book:
HE IS ALIVE!?
no, he has been dead for 3 months 😞
I think you meant to say 408 years @@mueezstopmotion
Yup
HE'S ALIVE
Yes, Shakespeare is in fact alive. He died back in 1616, but he has come back as a zombie. So hes half-alive
Wish we could see more of you, but when you do post videos they are always works of art. It would take you a long time to put these together. Who thinks of Shakespeare? All the average person hears of his work is Romeo and Juliet. Who knew we were seriously missing out? Thanks for not giving up on this one. It would take me probably a year to read that book.
As a Shakespeare nerd, I LOVE that you did this!! What a legend!
HE‘S BACK
Guess who's back back again Liam's back tell a friend guess who's back guess who's back guess who's back guess who's back guess who's back guess who's back guess who's back (somebody please get this)
@@Chrispy103I get it 😎
@@Chrispy103I was actually about to comment that too
Who? Shakesphere 😂😂😂
@@averycleverfish8872 sick
Fun fact: if you've played Red Dead Redemption II, the mission where you hunt a bear with Hosea is called "Exit, Pursued by an Ego" as a nod to that very stage direction.
i forgot how much i loved your videos. i haven’t watched you for years and then randomly remembered you and saw you recently uploaded. great vid :)
Liam I’ve been watching you since I was like four or five. I would play all your vids on repeat over and over again every day. You taught me to be creative, be happy, get out into the world and show them my stuff. I would watch yr vids when I’m sad or blue. Thank you for being there.
So that’s what he was doing all this time
I never knew you were capable of making videos more than 10 minutes long, Liam. Proud of you.
Ignore his last 3 videos then…
I just came back to this guy after a year yesterday after seeing my old channel's subscriptions, this guy was one of my favorite youtubers and is way too underrated. I saw he hasn't uploaded in over 5 monthes and thought maybe he quit, the very next day, here he is, back with another BANGER!
What a legendary comeback! This video had everything I've come to love about your channel. Pure silliness done with extreme care. 10/10 ❤
This was absolutely amazing! Great video!
I never thought someone would willingly read Shakespeare and make it entertaining and yet here we are
Omg I have been waiting for what feels like 7 years for him to upload
You were gone for so long, I assumed you were doing something that took a long time... And I was right!😂 We don't learn about Shakespeare in my country, but I got motivated to read Shakespeare now, thanks to you!
LOVED the editing in this. It takes a while, sure, but the result is so worth it!
This was actually GREAT! I loved this video
I smiled fantastically when I saw Liams notification !!!
Now don’t leave for that long ever again😭
stupid challenges like this is EXACTLY how i got into reading classics and now im a lit major. i’m not all the way through the video but im so glad you’re enjoying it so far at least.
Dude, whenever one of your new videos come out it just makes my day.
Genuinely one of the most captivating videos of all time, or at least on youtube. I have felt every emotion Liam did and I will do so once more as I am now urged to also read some of Shakespeare hehe:)
Thank you for the immense enjoyment, for keeping Shakespeare alive a little longer and for inspiring thousands of others to pick up Shakespeare again, Liam!
We've missed you! Welcome back and hope to see more from you soon 🤙
I love it when people discover Shakespeare for the first time, Because Liam really just asked if Malvolios flirting with the yellow stockings and the “Ho ho”s in twelfth night was intentionally comedic (the answer is yes, it’s probably one of the most popular comedic acts in his entire work)
Not even halfway through the video yet, but this is so inspiring. Love the humour of this channel.
This was really good. That's amazing that you did that much reading. And your videos have come a long way, nice production quality!
Thank you for all the prep work, creativity, details, energy and editing! Your videos always motivate me to do weird stuff around my house, too.
👏👏👏
First
For anyone who wants to take on Shakespeare’s works, I highly recommend full cast audiobooks. I love Shakespeare and adapted, directed, and acted in his plays in college, but aside from getting to be a part of putting the shows on or seeing live theater, the full cast audiobooks are my favorite ways to consume his works
I never thought i would be so immersed and entertained by timelapses of a man reading shakespeare for 35 minutes, but here i am.
Amazing video liam, genuinely enjoyed it.
I bought Hamlet a few weeks ago and was just about to start it when you dropped this video, Liam😄had to watch your Shakespeare journey before getting to the book and, well, im going to read it right now! thanks for this amazing video and props to your effort, bro!
the level of detail you put into this is insane. When I paused to read the "play" you wrote out, I wasn't expecting it to be the script of the video that you hadn't even got to yet lmao. I was tripping when you were speaking stuff that I already read in the play haha
13:50 I thought I was crazy seeing William blinking in the background.
WHATTTT
The lack of views is saddening me. I know RUclips works that way when creators take breaks but this is some of his best vids 😢
not gonna lie: i like your videos and saw this one recommended almost immediately after you posted but wasn’t super interested but here i am 30 min later and you killed it! you’re a notch above the rest!
Liam's a type of guy to leave us for a couple of months to read everything Shakespeare ever wrote
YES! THANK YOU LIAM THOMSON FOR BLESSING US WITH AN UPLOAD!
Woah this took an insane amount of effort good on you!! How many people can say they’ve read all of Shakespeare, visited his hometown or have such incredible editing video making skills and even just the self confidence to be a RUclipsr. Liam, you’re officially awesome! Good on you!!!!
LIAM IS BACK!! Delivering quality content, as per usual!! Mad respect, you legend 👏👏
As a literature student who is also a huge Liam fan, I loved this video. Thanks! ❤
Same here! ❤
I might not have read along with you but I certainly laughed and suffered along with you. Oh my god man, I don't even have words for this. The editing is absolutely insane. You are absolutely insane. I loved every single second. Thank you.
Dude your laugh is so wonderful and makes me feel proud about my laugh to, also I’m glad someone also finds simple things funny as well
This is literally the best video ever! There really isn’t anything that can compare. Bravo!
King Lear is my favorite Shakespeare play so I was sad you didn't talk about it, but giving it a 9 makes me happy enough!! so glad to see you posting again! also, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are the Timone and Pumba of Hamlet ;)
I want him to summarise every single play next. please
Haha
Quite literally the best and most authentic youtuber ever!! Love ya!
LIAM YOURE BACK! (Smiles fantastically)
