Heads up, fans of Hamlet and/or metal.

For those who don't watch METALOCALYPSE, there's an episode where Nathan Explosion, lead singer of the metal band (and twelfth largest economy in the world) Dethklok records the Complete Works of William Shakespeare. His aim to make Shakespeare metal.

In the actual episode, we didn't see too much of the actual performance. However--and I am very peeved that no one has told me about this--in the DVD, this here video is a special feature.

Holy. Bejabbers. I'm dying here.

I haven't had the time to watch the whole thing yet, but that easily joins the ranks of Arnold Schwarzenegger's HAMLET:

And, of course, the still-brillaint South Park (Canadian) HAMLET:

PS - Godzilla Final Wars was the 2004 blowout extravaganza that had all of the Earth's previously vanquished kaiju wake up, due to alien interference, and ATTACK Godzilla. Cities around the world get trashed: Sydney, Beijing, Paris, San Francisco, Tokyo. Then they all attack Godzilla, and he and Mothra plunge into battle in an all out multi-monster melee to defeat them, which they eventually do. It was notable for using CGI in some sequences, and excellent acting, with an interesting human plot.

IT WAS AWESOME.

Also, you've seriously never seen the last Mothra trilogy, from the nineties? You know that Mothra is Wonder Woman to Godzilla's Wolverine, right? You know that she's considered a cultural icon, and that she's literally a goddess of love and the defender of ecological purity, and of the Earth?
