Two of the Hamlet films make my list:

A) 'Hamlet' starring Kenneth Branaugh (first version with complete text of play! not on DVD yet though dammit but at least I have my LD!)

B) 'The Adventures of Bob and Doug MacKenzie in Strange Brew' (aka Strange Brew). Most of you younglings won't know who the heck Bob and Doug are, but not only is the basic 'plot' of this film Hamlet, but it is probably (along with Clue) one of my favorite comedies of all time!!! And it has an AWESOME Star Wars joke in it!!

Doug McKenzie (Vader breathing): I am your father, Luke. Give in to the dark side of the force, you knob.
Bob McKenzie: He saw Jedi 17 times, eh!
