romeo and juliets driving theme is not silly teenagers falling in love, it is the male cycle of violence and how children will always be it’s worst victims

and the sooner you guys realise that the better

yeah I still like vv. if yall r wondering why ive been doodling sm one im the doodler two im practicing

i mean for real look up other actors' deliveries of the queen mab monologue and then come back and tell me any of them did it better than harold perrineau

like most of them are just. saying the words like any other, or trying to spin a tale kind of randomly which i guess is fine and sort of establishes mercutio as being Out There, but they don't particularly characterize him as standing out that much

but harold perrineau delivers that speech like a man with some serious shit he needs to sort through, and strongly sets up the kind of character who would throw himself into a duel on impulse and scream a plague on both your houses! while dying senselessly

none of the others make mercutio so manic, so hectic, a candle so bright that it's burning itself out in a blaze of bitter glory

his mercutio is gregarious, living large, here for a good time not for a long time, living fast and dying young and boiling with energy and a kind of rage under the surface like he wants to burn the world down and let it take him with it

his is the most compelling and realistic mercutio i've ever seen

no other portrayal can compare

we as a society are failing because men don’t dress like this anymore

i love how mercutio is shipped with like. every man. i see mercutio/benvolio, mercutio/romeo, mercutio/tybalt. man is so gay but no one can agree on who he's actually gay for.

I say the phrases that keep it all going, and everybody plays along.

I had to come across this photograph of Aurora Perrineau as her daddy as Mercutio while looking for something else entirely on Instagram. How nobody of you thousands ever show me this? Smh.

ROUND 1: MR ROGERS (mr roger's neighborhood) VS MERCUTIO (romeo and juliet)

[to-trek-or-not-to-trek]

Picard, in Ten Forward: Sometimes I feel like Hamlet, Number One. I am afraid of being paralyzed by indecision, what with the consequences of my position. Do you ever feel the same?

Riker, mildly drunk: Sometimes I feel like Mercutio, because making a pun and then dying instead of seeking medical help sounds like goals.

Picard:

Riker:

Picard:

Troi, grabbing their drinks from them as she awkwardly leaves: As ship's counselor, I'm just going to remind you that my door is always open.
