Shakespeare Summarized: Julius Caesar

Was this video from before Blue did his videos on Roman history???

Thoughts of the play about a man from Athens?

Im so excited to play Cassius and this honestly explained his character so well 😂

the Shakespeare cinematic universe

My god this video is 20x better when you make it go at 1.5-2x speed. Try it!

I'm seething at your butchery of "Pompey"
Pompeii is pom-pay
Pompey is pom-pee

Got jusmp scared by non chibi red

And the people are like “huh🤔” fucking killed me 😂

TRULY A VICTORY FOR THE FORCES OF JUSTICE!!!

Red: "Please no Slash fics."
How about Stab fics?

I’d say Christopher a Columbus finding America was far from an innocuous day.

To be fair Flavius jumped out of the story because he was being assassinated by Bayek of Siwa

"I wish i could be that funny"

Good news, it's been 9 years since you posted this and you are absolutely that funny.

Why am I watching videos from a decade ago

Fuckin hell your art style has evolved sense then

Each time Brutus makes a dumb decision, take a shot

Red: "Something about a bunch o bees I think...."

Blue: *"JOY-GASM!!!"*

WHERE WAS THIS CHANNEL ALL MY LIFE?!?!?!??

My recent obsession with Rome put some vintage OSP in my recommendations today

Famously 44 BC!

Using this as a preview to reading the play for high school sophomores. Having taught the play with and without this as a preview, I can confidently say it makes a measurable difference in both reading comprehension and enjoyment. True story.

Happy Ides of March, everyone!

Thumbs up this comment if you’re watching this on March 15th.

Does this video get more views around this time of year? Cause it should.

Gotta say, coming back to old Shakespeare videos really puts a shine on Blue, because before Red had to regularly run to Wikipedia for information lol

💗

Red really did look sketchy back then.

Ceaser fainting because of peasants with halitosis sounds like a gd shitpost XD

".... you could forget that he's quite literally giving the actors their stage directions."

"¿É tu, Brué?"

"Ét mois, Cesar...."

Oh, my goodness, he's actually literally saying his co-stars lines for them!!!

I'd forgotten the Asterix comics existed. Thank-you.

"WHAaaaat*ever*" remains one of the best lines ever, even after, like, almost two decades.

Truly a victory for the forces of Justice!

Not the fallen kingdom ending

The masses:....

....

Marc Antony: Why tf aren't y'all doing anything?....

The masses:....

....

Marc Antony: Oh, shit, yeah, MONEY

The masses: RRRAAAAAAAA, DIE, BRUTUS, DIE, RRRAAAAAA

ADDENDUM: Red: "....he's quite literally giving the actors their stage directions."

Cesar: "Et tu, Brute? Et moia, Cesar."

Holy shit, Cesar actually said Brutus's line for him.

My birthday is actually the ides of March! This is the one interesting thing I can tell people about it, lol

Caesar was handed reports from his spies while walking into that Senate meeting, warning him. He didn’t bother to read them.

Friend: Why aren't SEPtember, OCTober, NOVember and DECember the 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th month? Whoever screwed this up should be stabbed...
Me: Well, I have some excellent news for you!


Not my joke, nor is it historically accurate since I think Augustas added July and August, does it still make me laugh, ABSOLUTELY

Iirc every time Brutus shows up in Asterix either Julius Caesar is unthinkingly insulting/condescending to him, causing Brutus to think “one of these days I’m gonna SNAP” or something to that effect and/or Caesar happens to say something similar to “et tu, Brute?” (Which would be the same in French as it is in Latin, conveniently enough)

what is the Important message from the description?

I once had an argument with my former boss and took the “But Brutus is an honorable man” thing to make my point….it works XD

Okay, okay, gotta say, kinda fascinating coming at this year and seeing Red all the way back then--some things are so similar and some are sooo much better now. Still, for early YT videos, not bad!

Okay that song choice is perfect

March 15 is also the date when the anti-Habsburg revolution started in Hungary, 1848. I just wanted to add that, because I haven't seen that on the list of "Stuff that happened on the 15th of March."

So basically this was a brilliant victory for the forced of justice.
