Most likely do a very subtle but crude dick/fart joke or a sex joke. As Will is wont to do.
The movie looks really interesting, i hope it turns out to be great

Sign me up! Although it’s hard to see Brannagh dressed as Shakespeare without thinking of Upstart Crow. A decidedly different tone.

There’s no such thing as “detox”. The liver and kidneys are sufficient to deal with any number of superhero movies.

“If you can’t stand the thought of sitting through another superhero movie…”
When the ratio of non-superhero to superhero movies is dozens-to-one, why would this ever be an issue?

Directed by and starring K. Branagh?

Come on now. Everyone knows the bard in the party is always busy rolling for seduction to be useful. The ultimate bard movie is basically Take Him To The Greek.

Let’s see, he retires from city life to live in rural surrounds… so it’s all about country matters, then?

Written by Ben Elton. Does Lord Blackadder make an appearance?

Hang on… this (All Is True) is written by Ben Elton? But he also wrote Upstart Crow!

Funny: I didn’t know that Vyvyan was married to Jennifer Saunders…and Mike played her ex-husband on AbFab.

get him to the greek?
Yeah that, misremembered the name. Not sure how but there you go
This comment just got me thinking about a Shakespeare-themed fighting game… something like Soul Caliber but with characters that look like they walked out of Cyrodil:
MacBeth
Fighting is actually controlled by Lady MacBeth moving his limbs around, Scott Pilgrim-style.
King Lear
Use to be a level boss, brings an army of drunkards with him, wanders his way to a ring-out.
Hamlet
Summons ghosts, chucks skulls, his controls randomly invert during gameplay.
Romeo + Juliet
If you can hold out against them long enough, they just kill each other.
Prospero
Wizard, mostly unbeatable but only playable on his island.
Other suggestions?
