#Romeo and Juliet ..... literally Romeo and Juliet

[blueberry-tenya]

I just realized: Romeo climbs several times during the play in order to meet with Juliet. And the film puts a lot of emphasis on the fact that Noa is a good climber.

Do you think we're gonna get a balcony scene?

#kingdom of the planet of the apes #nomae #romeo and juliet theory #IF THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENS I'M GONNA PASS OUT ON THE SPOT #Like yeah it's probably not going to be a literal balcony because well i doubt there's any around but #It could be a situation in which Noa needs to climb to a high place in order to meet with Mae in secret #We have seen him climb a building #Noa #Mae #Nomae brainrot is forever #kotpota

from that 2005 R&J essay by David Tennant

#you know like in“ vincent and the doctor” #we all know it's a matter of time before he plays lear #just play iago and he's literally ticked all the roles #and played others too. to great acclaimn #david tennant #richard ii #benedick #hamlet #romeo #macbeth #i haven't even listed all his shakespeare roles #his career in shakespeare really deserves more credit and praise #because it is seriously impressive #the only reason one wouldn't consider him to be a great shakesperean actor is if you are a pretentious asshole #king lear #iago #othello #romeo and juliet essay #doctor who #shakespeare #rsc #shakespeare actors

Paul's names and titles, Dune Part Two from start to finish

Methodology and notes:

Had to be addressing or referencing Paul specifically, so general discussions of prophecy (ie. "the mother of the Lisan al-Gaib will be a Reverend Mother") were not included

I didn't include things that weren't proper nouns like "cousin" BUT if I had, the last name Paul would have been called on screen is "your brother"

That one Kwisatz Haderach is from the line "Kwisatz Haderach, climb up, arise," which I treated as a direct command

The Atreides name carries its own connotations, so "Atreides" and "Paul Atreides" were treated as separate from just "Paul"

Gurney calls Paul "Paul" several times when they first reunite, but after Paul snaps and gives him a direct order ("Go south, protect my mother") he immediately course corrects to "my Lord" and only addresses him that way for the rest of the movie

#dune #dune part two #paul atreides #love how you can literally see the movie written out in how paul is addressed #yes this was inspired by that every mention of love and death in romeo and juliet thing #i'd been wanting to do something similar for all paul's names and titles since i saw that post

the evils of princess tutu have infected me and now when listen to classical music I'm like "oh its fakir's muscial motif"

#I don't know how to explain what his musical motif is but it's there #Just go listen to romeo and juliet fantasy overture and if u hear him in there congrats on the brain sickness #Rue also has a pretty recognizable motif it's not as memorable as fakir's #Idk what tutu and mytho's is tho #Tutu cuz she's almost always with someone and they're taking the focal point ans mytho cuz he literally doesn't have a character #Sorry to him #Princess tutu

Graystripe and Silverstream are two very selfish cats and I can’t wait to explore that in my one-shot (two-shot?).

#they’re literally the cat versions of Romeo and Juliet #they’re the epitome of young and in love #thinking that love is enough to conquer all #they don’t consider the consequences #they jump in head first and reckless #and in the end that love is what kills Silverstream #I’m obsessed w them tbh #y’all aren’t ready for that Gray/Silver renaissance #Graystripe #Silverstream #FAB #warrior cats #fanfiction #warriors

the directing of this scene is outstanding because despite being surrounded by darkness and crying, sanji is the one bathed in the sunlight of luffy's hopeful and loving words. his brothers are the ones laughing but they're covered in gloom and their narcissistic, evil selves. while sanji is acting in the most selfless and self-sabotaging way, wanting to go into the dark so his crew doesn't get hurt by the past he's been running away from for so long. he feels like he deserves this and luffy will not let him drown in his self-harm and the despair his family is. luffy literally is sanji's light, sun, hopes and dreams personified.

#i'm going to bang my head on a concrete wall #they make me want to throw up #get yourself a luffy today that can help you run away from your shitty blood relatives #suddenly i want to hug my girlfriend and never let go #this is literally romeo and juliet btw #sanji stop being relatable please #sanji and juliet capulet are actually the same person in this essay i wi- #don't ask me how many hours of sleep i got today bc the answer is concerning #one piece #sanji #black leg sanji #monkey d. luffy #lusan #whole cake island

In England until the late sixteenth century, individual identity had been imagined not so much as the result of autonomous, personal growth in consciousness but rather as a function of social station, an individual's place in a network of social and kinship structures. Furthermore, traditional culture distinguished sharply between the nature of identity between men and women. A woman's identity was conceived almost exclusively in relation to male authority and marital status. She was less an autonomous, desiring self than any male was; she was a daughter, wife, or widow expected to be chaste, silent, and, above all, obedient. It is a profound and necessary act of historical imagination, then, to recognize innovation in the moment when Juliet impatiently invokes the coming of night and the husband she has disobediently married: "Come, gentle night; come, loving black-browed night, / Give me my Romeo" (3.2.21-23).

Recognizing that the nature of desire and identity is subject to historical change and cultural innovation can provide the basis for rereading Romeo and Juliet. Instead of an uncomplicated, if lyrically beautiful, contest between young love and "ancient grudge," the play becomes a narrative that expresses an historical conflict between old forms of identity and new modes of desire, between authority and freedom, between parental will and romantic individualism. Furthermore, though the Chorus initially sets the lovers as a pair against the background of familial hatred, the reader attentive to social detail will be struck instead by Shakespeare's care in distinguishing the circumstances between male and female lovers: "she as much in love, her means much less / To meet her new beloved anywhere" (2. Chorus 11-12, italics added). The story of "Juliet and her Romeo" may be a single narrative, but its clear internal division is drawn along the traditionally unequal lines of gender.

Because of such traditional notions of identity and gender, Elizabethan theatergoers might have recognized a paradox in the play's lyrical celebration of the beauty of awakened sexual desire in the adolescent boy and girl. By causing us to identify with Romeo and Juliet's desire for one another, the play affirms their love even while presenting it as a problem in social management. This is true not because Romeo and Juliet fall in love with forbidden or otherwise unavailable sexual partners; such is the usual state of affairs at the beginning of Shakespearian comedy, but those comedies end happily. Rather Romeo and Juliet's love is a social problem, unresolvable except by their deaths, because they dare to marry secretly in an age when legal, consummated marriage was irreversible. Secret marriage is the narrative device by which Shakespeare brings into conflict the new privilege claimed by individual desire and the traditional authority granted fathers to arrange their daughters' marriages. Secret marriage is the testing ground, in other words, of the new kind of importance being claimed by individual desire. Shakespeare's representation of the narrative outcome of this desire as tragic -- here, as later in the secret marriage that opens Othello -- may suggest something of Elizabethan society's anxiety about the social cost of romantic individualism.

#the thing is that shakespeare literally did do that and romeo and juliet literally is that bitch #it is literally not overhyped at all. which is sort of inuriating. but also awesome. because it's so awesome. #romeo and juliet
