TITLE THE EXTRA CREDIT R AND J FINAL SCENE


My reactions to the final scene lets see... I personally think that Shakespeare could have dragged it out a bit longer apposed to ending it with 4 characters dyeing all at once. It was good dialogue wise I thought though not to wordy but there was a lot of action in the scene so he needed to go into at-least a little bit of detail. Another good thing about the scene is that it did bring everything together at the end tied loose ends and although it was not exactly a happy ending it wasn't an entirely sad one either. So I guess the ending had its ups and its downs but all in all I think that Shakespeare did a good job ending his play.
As for how the play influenced pop culture all that I have to say is that they made 2 movies from it. Other than the 2 movies I don't really know how it influenced modern day pop culture. Thats not of course saying that it did not in any way, its just that I personally can not say how it did. The only way I can see this play effecting pop culture is it might have influenced some themes in movies because it had many different themes itself, from loving someone to hating someone.

romeo and juliet video post

This is like Romeo and Juliet because even though you cannot understand the words you can tell there is fiery love between those two people and you can tell that one of them has done or is doing something that the ther person does not want them to do.

Romeo and Juliet photo post

This photo is related to Romeo and Juliet because it looks like the balcony that could have been were Juliet's room was located. It is also the "real life" Juliet balcony in Verona Italy

Romeo and Juliet: Act Two

Alot happened in act to what I am going to write about is the long conversation about love between Romeo and Juliet in which they decide to get married. What happens in this scene is Romeo sneaks over the wall to talk love talk with Juliet. I chose to write about this because it was the only thing I can really remember because we deciphered it for ever!!!! But I also chose to write about this so I could say my opinion on the matter at hand which is are they in love? I personally think, it is ridiculous that they fell in love at first sight. I mean love at first sight is a fairy tale thing and I guess Romeo and Juliet would fit under that category I just think Shakespeare could have put a little more buildup first (before they got married) maybe a few more secret love talk scenes. I don't think I can com pair it to anything that has happened in my life but if I were in that situation I would have stucked with Rosaline 1: because she was obviously quite attractive and 2: I would not have to risk my life for love. Personally I value my life alot and that comes first unless I am in a take my life save 10 situation. So I guess I can say no I would not have done what the characters in this story did, I just wouldnt be foolish enough to risk my life that way. I am trying my hardest to think of a situation similar to the scene but I can not think of any that relate to my life. Wait I got one! I can relate to this I guess with when I have snuck out in the past to meet up with girls or I guess it could apply with meeting just friends. I say this mainly only connecting the sneaking around at night part not so much the love side of things.
