A Midsummer Night's Dream

While looking online at pictures and images I found several differnt things.

one was a play clip (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yhi2DhV1j_k)

While I was looking at the pictures the majority were pictures from the movie or pictures taken of the play.

I think it is okay that people re-do and sort of make a goof out of the original version. When other authors & producers change it up a little they are making it accessable to more people. And more people become engaged and learn the overall idea.

FOR CLASS: Argue to keep Shakespeare in the original form:

~You might lost some things when you change its form

~It is not as meaningful

~Mabye if you dont understand it than its your fault & you need to work harder to study it and learn about it

~ Its not always good to change things from the past

~ It was written the way it was for a reason

Part # 2

Romeo & Juliet

After looking at the manga version of Romeo and Juliet I dont think that it is a good idea to change some things about a story but not everything. for example in the manga version the author changed the pictures but not the words. I think that if they were going to make a comic book about it they should have kept the pictures realistic to the times or changed the words to make them flow better with the modern pictures. The death scene is one of the most commonly known scenes in this play. Romeo and Juliet decide that if they cant live with one another than they would rather not live at all. The scene in the manga is displayed differntly and gives you a differnt interpretation of the story.

Part #3

Demetrius/ Helena

Helena loves demetrius and demetrius loved hermia. Its a classic loves story about wanting what you cant have. It seems very typical to todays socitey as well. Its always more fun when you have to work at it but once you dont your usually over it adn dont think that it is worth your time.
