Before you dismiss your fanfiction idea as stupid, remember that Disney made a Hamlet AU with singing lions and a happy ending and it was one of their most beloved and successful films.
And James Cameron did a Romeo & Juliet AU set on the Titanic.
The following is a famous movie scene that I rewrote in Shakespearean fashion. If you can guess what it is, you get a gold star
Woman: "But O my dearest lover, be you still. Why is it that you move away from me?"
Man: "It is in my home village I must be. I am going back, for this is my will."
Woman: "Dearest, I beg with you, I plead with you. Take me with you and carry me away."
Man: "Never again shall I do as you say. 'Tis only peace I want, not pain and rue. For somewhere in these reaches of bleakness, surely there must be still both charm and grace. How long it has been since I've seen its face. Do you know the things of which I speak, miss?"
Woman: "Nay, I say unto you, nay O my sweet! For the only thing that I surely know is the tender love that for you I show!"
Man: "A misfortune for you it is indeed."
Woman: "Stay, O please stay my precious love'ed one. If you should leave now and wander away, in what place is it now that I shall stay? By the morrow, O what shall I have done?"
Man: "O dear lady, with you I must be frank. That which will happen to you I care not. And I, dear madam, am not your varlot. I leave you now, for this whole town is rank."
Has anybody else realized that Hamlet is the most famous work about First-World Problems?
Don't get me wrong - Hamlet is my favourite Shakespearean play. (So please don't come after me, Hiddles!)
But. Really Hammy. You need an attitude adjustment.
This guy is a mother-fucking prince. He lives in a freaking palace. And yet he's all like, "Aww! My life sucks...." I'm like, "Bitch please! I'd love to be living in a freaking palace!!! Suck it up!"
Damn. it. Tennant.

God dammit, Tennant! I thought Hamlet was a serious play, yet you keep cracking me up!
...Huh? What? Sorry, I was distracted by David Tennant's midriff.
Mmm. David Tennant tummy. Yummy yummy.
Watching the Royal Shakespeare Company performance of Hamlet on PBS.org, when this gem came on-screen. I couldn't resist screen-capping it. It was just too good to pass up.
Loki as "Hamlet". Loki tries his best to perform Shakespeare's greatest work... tries...
