I agree most of the time, but I also hate when the setting is modernized but the period dialogue is retained.

You must not have liked Romeo + Juliet.

It's perfectly legit not to like Romeo + Juliet, but I feel like Shakespeare's a special case, because there is such a long stage tradition of playing with anachronistic settings for the plays. It feels like it's own genre to me.

This entirely. I was lucky enough to see a production at the Globe of Midsummer Night's Dream which had anachronistic setting and gay romance as one of the sets of lovers. It was amazing and so well done. It had the audience laughing their arses off in all the right places and gasping in others. I know a lot of traditionalists hated it but to me it felt much more like the original spirit of the play. Plus they kept the dialogue Shakespeare an.
