Romeo and Juliet don't have much personality, I can't stand either Portia or Antonio in "The Merchant of Venice," and I remember the heroines much more clearly than the heroes in the comedies.

Hm, hard for me as well. I do enjoy Beatriche and Benedict, however, I wonder if they will make it as a couple, I mean I enjoy their chemistry and bickering (especially in the movie), but long term, am not sure.

And yes, cannot stand Portia or Antonio myself.
