@jotto3391 My bad... What I meant was "tragicomedy", but I obviously forgot that when I posted my first comment... :/

@CochroachKappa Actually, I saw this recently. Ariel is a male. The female character that I also thought was Ariel is actually his mother, a Voodoo Preistess. It serves a backstory in the beginning of the film to how Prospero learned his art.

@CochroachKappa Wow, that's a pretty terrible reading of the play. But, yes, this looks terrible also.
-
@savetheplanet898 Well, there was a well-known chess player named Ariel Mengarini, but that was years back...
-
@CochroachKappa i think its a romance. plus you might take comedy too literal. its definitely a dark play at times. but this is ridiculous
-
@CochroachKappa Ariel wasn't the woman, it was the slave man with the long hair.

Shakespeare with the Shakespeare taken out is always so disapointing. I hope the Julie Taymour version with Helen Mirren and Russell Brand will be better....

Wow. This looks like crap. Isn't the Tempest considered A COMEDY? And I've always abhored female Ariels...Plus, you are going to inevitably hate the shit out of Prospero because his magical "slaves" are black! THAT'S TOO LITERAL. Propspero will only come off as an ass-hole slave driver who beats on Caliban, and refuses Ariel her freedom until the work is done. Ariel LIKES Prospero...and Caliban was evil! This is the point! AND COMEDY COMEDY COMEDY!!! WHERE?!
