Shakespearean Three Pigs


I really enjoy picturing little pigs saying "Harken!" or "Haste."  "Unbar this entrance with haste, we beseech thee!" or "Nay it shall not be..."
Phrases like: An exhale of gale proportions, domicile number 2, ...and the alliteration about the 2nd pig.
The language makes the fairy tale sound much more important. A lot of it sounds like a Monty Python movie.

Another part that made me laugh? the American pig, with a far more limited vocab...but a stronger house.

  1. I also thought that the american pig was funny and I thought it was cool when he used the "S" alliteration when the 2nd pig's house got blown down

  2. Him making the pigs voices after he made the wolfs voice was funny.

  3. I found this whole video very funny, although for some reason I don't think that this is how Shakespeare's writing is. A agree with Ms. Ullner about the part with the American pig having limited vocabulary but a stronger house.
