Laura-- Yeah, I liked how they portrayed her father as well. And how they showed a HUGE conflict between Adam and his father.
Laramis-- Yes, I noticed it was a direct reflection of Romeo and Juliet-- ie. They met at a party, they actually met in the swimming pool (anyone who has seen the R&J with Leo will understand this), they fell in love, OMG he drew a picture of her on the first date (which Leo aka Romeo also drew/sketched), The balcony scene like you mentioned, them secretly meeting in the park/boardwalk/beachhouse, both being virgins, and the things he said to her! Talk about all the perfect things to say! OMG. I'm just waiting for him to vow to die for her. So kick ass on so many levels.
I also LOVED how he stood up to both of his parents for her.
Okay, so I'm just wondering if they will run off secretly and get married? Wouldn't that be cool!
OH the parents would be PISSED.
