This is really nice! Can we expect more of these?
-
@meh800 not in the one night. within the period of time that they were together. i don't really know, but that's how the version my class did went. some of them are different, when they should be the same.

@livcaitbff It depends on which source you're reading. There are many different stories saying different things, there isn't one definitive story. However, she wouldn't have grown to love him within the one night that is a midsummer night's dream, so this clip is still inaccurate.

yeah... this.... sucks... just sayin....
-
@meh800 wait, wait, sorry he did capture her, but she didn't hate him. she did eventually gorw to love him. sorry.
-
@meh800 actually, she was given to theseus to marry by herculies. she grew to love him, as he did her.
-
I don't think you understand the fact that Hippolyta was kidnapped by Theseus. She didn't love him in the least.
-
FIRST. This thing looks like it's from some role playing thingy on the internet.
SECOND. Why the heck is Theseus so happy, and actually engaging Hippolyta? They're going to be married in 4 days, THEY'RE ALREADY ENGAGED. Besides, Theseus is meant to be impatient...

@CallistaMacLeod Maybe she did. I don't know about you, but if I was being held at swordpoint I wouldn't be quick to show hatred.



needed this for school but didn't use it............. its crap.

Theseus captured Hippolyta in conquest of her country and claimed her as his wife (this is the kind of thing you'd know in Shakespeare's time from legends, etc.) Hence 'wooed thee with my sword.' To woo is actually courting somebody--it doesn't necessarily mean trying to make them love you. And even if he was trying, it doesn't mean he was successful.
Also, in typical male fashion, Theseus was cocky and assuming that Hippolyta loved him.
