now that I have read the comments that people gave me, I have some new thoughts. I was told that I need to connect my thoughts to Romeo and Juliet more so I believe that Romeo and Juliet were not successful people because they did not do everything in their reach to save themselves from their misery and in the end, their death.

while some people are born successful, others fail to achieve their goals. I believe that there are many reasons why this happens. the first reason is mainly just because some people choose to work hard and wont give up until they achieve or find what they have been looking for, whereas others will give up as soon as things get really though or difficult for them (which is a very bad way to look at life). So if you think about it,usually,the most successful people are the ones who worked their butts off to get where they are today.

Thesis ideas
-Romeo and Juliet were not successful.
-no one in Romeo and Juliet was successful.

Juliet watches Romeo die. I hate this scene so much because as soon as Juliet wakes up, she could've stopped Romeo from drinking the poison and dying, but NOOOO she had to be so unbelievably stupid and just ignore the fact that he was about to die until the exact second that he does, and then she proceeds to shoot herself to join him.

Juliet went to the friar for help because she wanted to die or find a way to live and be with Romeo so she puts a gun to her head and only at that moment does the friar realize just how much help she needs.

Juliet's father was essentially abusing Juliet because she was refusing to marry Paris, which is very unfair because well, it is Juliet's decision who she wants to marry, she should be the one who gets to choose her love, NOT her father.

The nurse ends up helping Juliet after her father has just abused her and she tells Juliet that if she kills herself or if her father kills her, she will never be able to be in love with Romeo because she will be gone so the nurse tells her that she should just marry Paris to make her father happy.

Romeo and Juliet hooked up at Juliet's house and in the morning when he was about to leave, he was saying that he would rather stay there to die with Juliet than leave and live the rest of his life without her. After Romeo says all of this, the nurse walks in and tells Juliet that her mom is on her way to Juliet's room so Juliet than throws Romeo out the window in to the pool so he can escape

Romeo is quite an Allusion in the play for a few reasons but I believe that that the main reason is because Juliet mentions Romeo A LOT in the play and she specifically uses a lot of expressions which refer to him and him and her. Basically, there are quite a bit of indirect (and sometimes direct) references to Romeo.

why don't Romeo and Juliet run away when they had the chance? all they needed was to get in a car and drive away but they didn't and then look at how well that worked out for them(not very well at all). I just don't see a reason why they could not have just done that. It would have solved all of their problems if you ask me...

Romeo and Juliet's wedding was very secretive and the only ones that knew about it was them, friar Lawrence and the nurse because if their parents found out, they would never have allowed it to happen so it had to be a secret.

the nurse is very protective of Juliet. when she went to talk with Romeo, she wasn't even being rude, she was being very accepting, in fact, she was trying to get them together, and part of the reason why they in fact got married is because of the nurse and friar Lawrence's persuasion.

I really enjoy how they use modern day music in the movie because it makes you remember what the timeline is supposed to be like and it sort of gives a good clue of what the time that they are trying to display is, I wonder if the producers thought about not using modern music?

Connotations are a very important part of Romeo and Juliet because it shows a lot of emotions and different types of the emotions that they are feelings on different levels and there are a lot of different examples of connotation in Romeo and Juliet.

If I am going to be completely honest, Friar Lawrence is an absolute weirdo and the fact that he is trying to marry Romeo and Juliet even though everybody else is against them getting married is just plain odd, even for a shake spear play. The even weirder part is that he is the one who gives Juliet the sleeping potion which than leads to romeos and her death

The movie version of Romeo and Juliet is quite modern even though they are still talking in Shakespearean whereas in the original play, things are obviously much different because the setting is in a much older time period and they're still speaking Shakespearean (becasue that is what they spoke in that time period when the play was made).

Romeo's Father is quite comparable to a ghost because just like a ghost, Romeo's Father is empty hearted,isn't living in the moment and he is a literal dead man walking.

Capulet says "I would not for the wealth of all the town".
This translates to "I would not, not even for all of the money in the town".

Tybalt says "A villain that is hither come in spite".
hither means here or to come here.
Spite means to bug or hurt someone or something.
So if you were to translate it, tybalt would be saying "a villain has come here to hurt us".

Capulet says "why, how now, kinsman! wherefore storm you so?".
Kinsman means a man of the family.
when he says "wherefore storm you so?" it means where are you going?
