let's move to something a bit more challenging...I think...hope so

CLUE:
Polonius : "What do you read, my lord?"
Hamlet: "Words, words, words."

It looks like you’ve achieved that - I’m stumped.

Lon Chaney/Quasimodo/Notre-Dame
Philomena Cunk/Diane Morgan
University Challenge
ING/lion
Star cluster/globular/dust
Fist/revolution

I was thinking it might be Shakespeare related, with the clue, but I haven’t got the foggiest 🤔

Soooo close. Its all there in your interpretation.

Nothing to do with Shakespeare, though i have used the previous literary rebus puzzles as a red herring. Your're very close. Think etymology (latin) rather than Shakespeare . The clue is what Hamlet was reading. In this case two (not three) words.

This may help.

Urquhart castle on Loch Ness. Been there! Horrible boat ride, but a spectacular edifice!

Wasn't that owned at one time by Sir Thomas Urquhart the linguist...?

There’s a discrepancy of several hundred centuries according to an article on Wikipedia. The castle goes waaaay back.

Late arrival, but from the clues you've given I can only come up with Universal Language or lingua universalis, but can't fit that to the images. And given that you've said that @Charlemagne1333 has supplied all the elements in his interpretation, I'm obviously off track... also stumped.

That's a long time 😉.
My mistake! Several hundred years might have been the answering gave. Or even several centuries!

I even looked for clusterfist in desperation but failed to find anything.

That rebus was practically engineered to punish reasonable thought.

I hope you were alone when searching the internet for that 😬.

clusterfist is the second word of the phrase - well done!
