The Ending


Did anybody else not really enjoy the ending of Romeo and Juliet? I didn't. I am someone that likes happy endings and not sad. I am so glad that we are finished with reading Romeo and Juliet. It seemed like it kept dragging on and on. Oh well, I did learn some things from it. I learned how to translate that language and understand the actual text without using no fear shakespeare. I like watching the different versions of the movie. Romeo and Juliet was a good experience but I am glad that it is over with. I cannot wait till we start our next thing in class. Class started to get a little on the boring side until we got to the ending and now we are finished!

What does everybody think about the difference between the movie and the dvd? I liked both of them. It gave a wide variety of the story. They both really explained the story in depth. I am glad that we got to watch the movie and dvd while reading each act. That was nice because it really helped me understand what it would be like in a modern way while also seeing it in a more original way. Well, I hope that everybody has had a good week!

You are exactly right.It dragged on for so long,and I didn't like the ending either because it was sad.Sad endings just ruin my day,and I question the writer why they did that.Espically with movies like World Trade center and Ladder 49.

I didn't like the ending either. It was sad, but I think sometimes we need a wake up call to tell us that not every love story has a happy ending.

Yeah I agree!! The ending was very depressing!! I like happy endings too!! Especially the new version ending when Juliet woke up to see Romeo die!! That just made it even more sad!!! Yeah I am glad it is over too. It seemed to drag on forever and ever!!
