I really do not know what to write about Act Two... Right now I am drawing a blank. I sort of feel bad for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. They don't have any idea what is going on yet they die anyway. I also think it is interesting how Stoppard wrote the play to where R & G do not move and everyone else comes to them. This gives the impression that they are really not in control of what happens to them.
Another thing is the metaphor of being dead in a box. Even if we are actually just marching towards death, I do not understand the point of being "angsistential" and sulking. If we only have so much time- live it up! I guess I'm more of the Seinfeld school of Postmodernism.
