King Lear

I must admit not that the play or even good written by William Shakespeare, the artist, the talent, the one-who-we-as-people-writers-and-thinkers-compare-ourselves-to-him. But, why, oh why King Lear? No color, no purpose? An average asshole who we gets old and senile man looks back at his life through the most judging prejudice eyes and sees what an asshole he is. The only difference in King Lear is a few incidents that have no real relation to the king at all are happening around him and his craze striken mind. Daughters of jealousy isn't that like every teenage modern romance books, including the old tale of Cinderella. What's new there?????? Then he had to add another asshole to the play that just stirs up more jealousy between the two sisters. Duh....Duh....Dahhhhhhh!!!!! No foreshadowing necessary when you meet that pricks character. Obvious, No Plot, No Purpose, No Color story of King Lear. If I wanted to see a soul less asshole resent brilliant people, incompedent people, and every one in between I would have taken a video bio of my dads life, past, present, and future, you would find no difference except for the size and type of family the story would be the same.
