    Oh, let's not let Juliet completely off the hook considering her attraction to him seems to stem from the fact that Romeo is more Zac Efron, while Paris is more Crypt Keeper. They are both shallow, horrible little monsters. Yes, R&J is a tragedy, but not for the reasons most people seem to think.

     

     

    Technically it is not considered a tragedy in the Greek sense (such as Hamlet, Macbeth, Othello and King Lear.) A classic tragedy involves a royal's hubris causing not only their death, but losing what they seek. The hubris does not belong to R&J, they simply love each other. The fault is in the families that cause the tragedy, not R&J... sorry, theatre major who played Mercutio. Honestly I dislike this play due to the horrible drag of the last half of the show. I remember waiting for the end of the show, hearing Juliet die only to realise it was her first death and dreading yet another 30 minutes of Romeo whining. (no one can embody a whining dick like Leo who is, in reality, a whiny dick) The real tragedy is the the only character's worth watching (Mercutio and Tybalt) die half way in.)

  2. At the end when Jupiter says, "Watch this," and jumps off the building revealing she has Channing's rocket boots. But she didn't know he had wings until just before that. So she stole his boots and must have planned to ditch him on the roof as a joke? Since these are apparently one of a kind boots in the universe, how was Channing not freaking out that they went missing?
