Disney's Romeo and Juliet

I considered making them Romy Oh and Julie Ett, but I think, whether or not that joke has been done already, it doesn't fit into the Disneyfication paradigm.
Oh, and there can be a trippy musical number which is implicitly tied to Romeo being on drugs, early in the film. But don't actually say drugs. But yeah.
