Was the "tommorrow" speech way out of character for Macbeth?

I was reading where somebody on the 'Net thought it was. Unlike anything else he'd said and more like something Hamlet would say.

1. I don't think so.

It shows us his character and how he is so consumed by he lust for power that he knows he can't even stop to mourn his wife. The sentiment that life is full of sound and fury signifying nothing is an indication of his failing morality and subsequent disregard for human life. I think it is a nice testament to his current state of being. Nowhere near pissy enough for Hamlet.

2. Interesting question. I'll think about it and get back to you. The Scottish Play is

my favorite Shakespeare and my favorite stage play. Comparing it to "Hamlet" is one of my favorite past times...mostly because I love to harp on the way it beats "Hamlet" any day.

3. After we got our Philco

in I think 1954, I saw a production of the Scottish Play on the teevee
I was about 5 and I put my blankie on my head, held down by mother's embroidery hoop, and played Lady McB for a week
Thank gods we had no video cam back then :rofl:
