Romeo vs. Mr Darcy Part 2
Saturday, 21 March 2009
Let's settle this once and for all: who is better, Romeo or Mr Darcy? The battle to end all battles.
Rules:
Each team starts with 10 points, and points are added and deducted based on whatever I feel like.
Let the games begin!
Romeo swings from being madly in love with Rosaline to Juliet in a matter of second. No girl wants that in a guy.
-2 points.But
Mr Darcy starts off rather snobbish, thats not exactly a turn on.
-3 points.Romeo knows how to party... or at least disguise himself to infiltrate enemy lines.
+1 point.Mr Darcy can banter with Elizabeth, and somehow still fall in love with her.
+1 point.Romeo pledges to marry Juliet after only knowing her a few hours... talk about jumping the gun.
-2 points.And
Mr Darcy proposes to Elizabeth after not seeing her for a couple of months... proof that he still loves her, despite the distance.
+ 3 points....
Mr Darcy can dance too.
+1 point.But
Romeo has a way with his words...
+2 points....But he's also pretty dumb...
- 3 points.Mr Darcy is one step ahead there, he's very intelligent.
+2 points.Romeo, unfortunantly, kills part of Juliet's family. Now, that's not cool at all.
-4 points.Mr Darcy writes a letter to Lizzie, explaining everything that had been muddled. How sweet.
+1 point.Romeo gets banished. Meh... some like a bad boy.
no points lost or gained.Mr Darcy isn't afraid to admit his mistakes and wants to change himself to win Lizzie back.
+3 points.But
Romeo can't stand to live without Juliet, and kills himself
. +1 point...... But he's an idiot because Juliet was never dead.
-3 points.Mr Darcy ends the story alive, changed and in love with Lizzie.
+3 points.In terms of the films,
Romeo gets played by Leonardo DiCaprio.
+2 points.But who can go past Colin Firth? He was MADE to play
Mr Darcy.
+4 points.And the final scores are:
Romeo: 2
Mr Darcy: 25
Finally we have a winner to the age-old question: Mr Darcy kicks Romeo's butt.
