Robin hood Movie

[axabrax]

Looks good to me. I love anything by Ridley Scott.

And lets face it, Crow is always good value in a punchy, shouty movie

I've always prefered the high pitch (and a bit pre-teen) squeel of Tom Cruise...

Anyone seen the Russian one (Robin Hood's Arrows (Strely Robin Guda, Стрелы Робин Гуда), 1957) ?  

Do you mean 1976?  Here's a review I found on IMDb.  Wow, a Soviet Robin Hood musical!  It certainly seems rather peculiar, but I guess the Soviet ideologues would have been attracted to Robin Hood's altruism, even if they didn't really demonstrate it themselves!  Certainly obscure enough to pique my interest, though.

Gladiator vs evil Prince John?
..I'm loving it already.

I think Movies like that need a different viewing approach: Don't expect a historcial Movie with some nice Action Scenes, expect an Action Movie with a nice historical aftertaste.

This reminds me: I used to have quite a thing for Judy Trott (Lady Marion) in the 1980s TV series some 30 years ago. I found her exceedingly beautiful, what with her Prerafaelitic stature and good looks:



*Sigh!*

Yes she's a beauty alright, reminds me of Mrs M.

Anyone remember the Pat Birgin version, a bit roapy in places but I thought it was quite a good version (apart from Uma Therman and the very end bit with the blossoming tree).

Looking forward to this one though, bit of thigh slapping fun

My favourite Hood, like my favourite Bond, is Sean Connery. Love that film, a Robin Hood story with real drama and emotion - love it, love it, love it. The Michael Praed TV series is a very close second, though. I remember loving Ray Winstone as a very antagonistic and arsey Will Scarlet, and unless my memory is playing me false, John Rhys Davies of Indy and LotR fame was King Richard.

Yah I do have to say 'Robin and Marion' with Sean Connery is my all time favorite movie version.

I do. Considering it was originally intended as a TV-movie but later blown up for the bog screen, it wasn't too bad. Agree about Uma Thurman not fitting in though.
