HAMLETS a better example than MACBETH. HAMLETS not really heroic so much as he is justified in his desire for revenge. . .I mean we root for him because CLEARLY there are enemies around him, but hes the "hero" by virtue of circumstance - not really any actions hes done outside his need for vengeance.

So - Hitler than (up until he offs himself) was a "her" because he never gave up and soldiered on?

Again - he soldiers on because he KNOWS he can not be beaten, not because hes got some inner-strength. "No man born of woman" - THAT is the ONLY reason he continues in the face of overwhelming odds, because he believes in the WITCHES prophecies. . .not his own talent.

And lets not forget the whole sanctioned murder of an innocent family and of the King he supposedly loved. . .

[quote:71213]There are no perfect heros or villians.[/quote:71213]

Sure there are. . .just because someone has REDEEMING qualities (I'm sure HITLER was good for a joke every now and then), does not cancel out overwhelming evidence to suggest otherwise about their character.

Ive read SHAKEY since elem-school, trust me I'm not lacking in appreciation of the work. Youre "working definition" of an anti-hero is a vague one that can EASILY be applied to individuals who are CLEARLY villianous with no remorse or desire to rectify their past deeds. . .

To the END - MacBeth stays the course. . .why? Because he "knows" he cannot be beaten and because he is WEAK. He could move BACK to the side of righteousness, but that way is MORE DIFFICULT than the current path of murder and bloodshed he has embarked on. . .he HIMSELF recognizes the villiany of his actions -

"I am in blood / Stepp'd in so far, that, should I wade no more, / Returning were as tedious as go o'er."

He doesnt stop, and he makes every movement to ensure that his children ascend the throne (the murder of Banquo). He COULD attain salvation and penance for his actions, but he DOESNT. . .

If thats heroic. . .

...You lame, pathetic loser of a fuck. I should just call you whiney nerd.
You just happened to be the example I used, which is refering to someone thinking you're the epitome of knowledge for rap. Im not saying you think you are and im saying you're not, im just saying ti is the same as thinking Akuma is the only one who would know about evil or something.

Why do you read everything as a negative...It was just the only example that came to my head at the moment dealing with that you know alot about rap and it is one of the most singled out things here as you're one of the only ones who do...unlike the othe rtopics that people kow about war and guns because that's alot of people and not just a tiny number.

Fuck id of thought my comment was a compliment, only reason it has a sarcastic overtone was because I was addressing acid or whatever and not you.
He is saying he loves you tripper, you kiwi fuck. WHY !!!!!!

To top it off, someone posted directly after that saying something about how they thought I knew alot about rap. You never replied.

You can't blame me for thinking that you were attempting to fault that view of my "knowledge" (which to be honest, really isn't as extensive as I get the idea people think it is), I got the idea that you were bitter about that and this was a subtle way to fuck with me....It's just too much like something you would do to deny.

...and the last thing I would think it would be is a compliment, I mean coming from you, we're not exactly very chummy....
