satch

are you a jet or a shark??

disregard the race issue (puerto rican).

would you rather fit in with teh jets or the sharks?



for me.... the sharks.

Yeah, definitely the Sharks. There not as douche-y.

Probably the Jets, the females don't dance as much. Laughing

I'll say the Sharks, if only because of what the Jets try to do to Anita.

Though after first seeing the movie when I was ten, I did have a crush on Baby John, so if the gangs were real and I actually had to choose, that might sway me.

I guess, if I were either of them, I'd probably be one of the Jet Girls...like Graziella, maybe.

How about a Jerk?

Exactly who are you talking to, Marcellus?

I may be a wee bit biased since I played Maria, but SHARKS all the way!

Is it really sad that my opinion would depend on who I'm playing? Like, I think my dream role in the show is Riff, BUT, I also wouldn't mind playing Bernardo. I dunno, could I pull off being Spanish? Be honest! Very Happy
SHSdrama_geek

since i played Big Deal this past september, i am a JET all the way from my first cig. to my last dying day.

and to repond to Vanessa20 comment. i hated the rape scene also, especially because the girl who played Anita was really nice. I felt bad everytime we did it.

You could most definitely pull of Spanish, Jordan! (Although techincally, they're Puerto Rican my friend... Wink )

As for me, I'm a Shark through and through. But I've got to admit the Jets get so many awesome songs to do ("Cool", "Gee, Officer Krupke", etc.) and us Sharks get next to nothing. Not fair. Sad

A Jet. They seem to have a stronger "brotherhood". They seem to really care about each other. Not saying the Sharks don't, but I feel it in the Jets more.

I sense "brotherhood" just as much in the Sharks as I do the Jets.

I think the Jerk comment was meant as a cross between jets and sharks...

really? The Jets seem more about sticking up for each other and the Sharks defending themselves.

In the beggining I was all for the Sharks, but then my director cast me as a Jet.
I guess just cause I had to get into character, I started liking the Jet's more. The Sharks have fun accents, but the Jets just seem 'cooler' and have Gee Officer Krupke. Can't top that.
Monsieur D'Arque

Both- simultaneously. I doubled as Doc and a Shark.
WontYouCharlestonWithMe

Sharks all the way! (I may be biased seeing how I'm hispanic. But who cares)

Love me some Krupke Wink
Jekkienumber24601

I think I've decided Officer Krupkee is my favorite song in the show.
ActingDude17

I've never done the show before but I'm white, so I'm gonna say Jet.
