- Loved Juliet and Friar Lourenço, 'cause they are the only people with working brains in this play;
- Also loved MercĂșcio 'cause he is funny and gay (fight me);
- Romeo is an anoying spoiled brat that had to make up problems in his life since he had none;
- Liked the discussions on gender roles and how woman were viewed only as wife, daughter or sex object for men, although Shakespeare was a white man in the 1500, so you never know if he is really being critical or just punishing his characters for breaking the norm;
- The simbolism of love being a kind of violence is neat;
- They didn't actually love each other, Romeo just wanted to be in love and Juliet wanted freedom from her father.
