What was Brutus poor judgment flaw?
He was a good man. He was compassionate, and did not want to cause unnecessary death. He was altruistic and was more concerned for the well-being of his country than for increasing his own power. If these are flaws, then Jesus had the same flaws.
When you look at it this way, there is a lot to be said for the idea that there is no such thing as a "tragic flaw". Bad things don't happen to people in tragedies because they are flawed, or not in good tragedies anyway. Bad things happen to them because they are in the wrong place at the wrong time. Being "the noblest Roman of them all" would normally have made Brutus a hero, as it made his ancestor a hero. But he lived at a time when he was surrounded by cynical, two-faced, devious, grasping and selfish people like Cassius and Antony, and his tragic virtues (they are not flaws) were out of place.

What did Caesar do to his enemies instead of killing them?
It depends on the enemy. If you are talking about enemies in battle, Caesar was one of the most terrifying leaders on the battlefield. Once a battle was finished, Caesar followed a policy of clemency for most. Although Caesar liked to define it as "mercy" as he often let the defeated keep not only their lives but their money and estates provided they did not take arms against him again. This was just not done on such a scale before Caesar. However, if the enemy had, in Caesar's eyes, proven to be false or had broken a previous oath not to fight, then it was either death or slavery. This is what happened to many Gauls who fought under Vercingetorix. In one siege, when women and children were allowed to leave and instead tried to trick Caear's legions, he had them all either put to death or sold into slavery.

Why does marullus scold the workers of Julius Caesar in scene 1?
In this scene of Julius Caesar, Marullus, enraged by their celebration of Caesar's victory, is scolding the commoners for their fickleness.
The rationale behind this scolding is simple: that not long before, these Romans had cheered on Pompey as he rode his chariot through their streets. Now they instead cheer for Caesar, who "comes in triumph over Pompey's blood." (I,i,51)
In addition to simply scolding them, Marullus also implies that the commoners need to repent lest they be punished for this disloyalty to Pompey when he says "Pray to the gods to intermit the plague / That needs must light on this ingratitude."(I,i,54-55) It should that this scene also demonstrates a disturbance in the hierarchical order, which Marullus tries to restore by implying that the gods will send a plague if the commoners don't behave.
