If Wu Zeiten had stayed with Qin Zheng at the end of Heavenly Tyrant I think it would have gone down a lot like Macbeth but gender bent and with better politics.

If I had to do a Macbeth movie (other than Archie’s Unlucky) that’s more of a ‘setting has been changed but the Shakespearean dialouge is still there’ kind of thing, I’d do it in the style of a sitcom. The Witches first lines can be the Theme Song. The live studio audience/canned laughter gets quitier and less frequent as Macbeth gets more and more corrupt.

Yea, uh-huh-huh! how many elvii have already succumbed to mine own cruel ambitions.
Hark, Hummina, Hark! the fates prophecy shall fulfilled be!
