That was the biggest piece of BS to ever be documented. The best part of the whole damn play is when they die! What people don't realize is William Shakespeare was very much a better comedy drama writer then a romantic. The only reason R&J is so popular and has influenced so much is because it is the easiest of is plays to understand and follow. A Midsummer's Nights Dream and Much Ado About Nothing is about love yes, but they are more comedies then romance. Personally I would love to Puck causing fun havoc through SB or a couple like Benedict & Beatrice who think their to good for marriage and love. Hamlet is The Lion King so if A&E wanted to keep up the Disney theme they would probably do that. Macbeth is the cursed play so they might want to avoid that one. The Tempest would be a good one for OUAT, it has wizards monsters and a prince & princess. As much of a masterpiece that Othelo is it is not appropriate for fairytale. Stay away from As You Like It. Antony & Cleopatra, just another form a R&J so moving on. If I'm being honest I'd say I already see The Taming Of The Shrew in CS's relationship. HAHA! I would love to see a Shakespeare land on OUAT but keep the idiotic hormonal teens as far away from SB as possible. Hell give Henry a love interest before bringing R&J. Romeo and Juliet could live in an Italian kingdom in the Enchanted Forest maybe, or they might be better off in a Shakespear world
