Ha!:D
Where were you about 50 Billion Years ago, when I had to actually READ this in High School? Really funny!

I like it.

My only crit is the lighting in the night scenes. Try backlighting the characters a bit more. This is the typical way to denote a dark scene, works for film, CG, cartoons etc. Usually it's done with a soft blueish light to to simulate the moon.

Thanks for the compliments, glad people liked it.

rabbit: I got an e-mail from a high school English teacher who said he was showing the 2 acts in his class alongside clips from Kenneth Branagh's, Mel Gibson's and Ethan Hawke's Hamlet movies. That made me laugh. Olivier must be rolling over in his grave.

Aaron: Believe it or not, there is a soft, bluish moon backlight. I guess it's not strong enough to show up well in the web version - maybe because Hamlet is blue already and the Ghost is completely black. You're right though, that's something I'll improve in the next act.
