Question

[Bernkastel]

The example I gave while trying to explain that emotion and passion are what drive wrestling matches, not the moves themselves

Would Macbeth been anymore meaningful if McDuff had used a machine gun instead of an axe to kill MacBeth? Would Romeo and Juliet have been any less of a tragedy if Romeo had sex with Juliet's dead body before killing himself?

well, would they?

Not entirely sure what you're asking.

I certainly would have preferred MacBeth with machine guns, and a necrophiliac scene in Romeo and Juliet would be a definite improvement.

If those plays would have any less or more meaningful with those edited scenes

and a necrophiliac scene in Romeo and Juliet would be a definite improvement.

but would it have been sadder, probably not

I doubt it. I've been a fan of less is more.

I think Shakespeare did too, which is why his plays weren't too over the top, almost like a John Cena match
