THEY MUST HAVE PAID CATE MUCHO MOOLA TO DO THIS. IF I WANT TO SEE MIDDLE AGED ROBIN AND MARIAN....I'LL WATCH SEAN CONNERY AND AUDREY HEPBURN.

YES, EXACTLY. NO WORTHWHILE ROBIN HOOD ADAPTATIONS, REALLY? UP YOURS, RUSSELL. (METHINKS WE SHOULD HAVE A "ROBIN AND MARIAN" VIEWING PARTY FOR A FUTURE CAPSCHAT, BTW.)

[multred_a]

AGREE-AFTER ROS? CATE IS OK, BUT RUSSELL? MCFAYDEN AS THE SHERIFF? CAN'T BEAT KEITH!

WHO COULD PLAY ROBIN(NOT PIEFACE)WITH CATE? NO AMERICANS...COSTNER *COUGH* TRIED.

[snowystingray]

IT'S NOT EVEN THAT I HATE RUSSELL CROWE AS AN ACTOR (MASTER AND COMMANDER, ANYONE?) BUT... ROBIN HOOD... REALLY? I FEEL LIKE THIS IS JUST GOING TO BE GLADIATOR PT. 2 PUSHED FORWARD 1000 YEARS AND, GUESS WHAT, I DIDN'T REALLY LIKE GLADIATOR THAT MUCH EITHER. YOU KNOW WHAT, RIDLEY SCOTT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE ONE TO HELM THAT UPCOMING FUTURISTIC HOOD MOVIE, BECAUSE I FIND HIS MOVIES ARE INFINITELY BETTER WHEN THEY FEATURE ALIENS AND/OR ROBOTS.

PRINCESS IZZY IS MOST LIKELY PJ'S WIFE. NO, RLY.

[mythopathy]

I TAKE IT BACK. WIKI SAYS IT'S THE OTHER ISABEL WHO'S THE WIFE. THE GLOUCESTER ONE.

I'VE NO IDEA WHAT THE FUCK'S GOING ON

[andlooknorth]

I JUST GOT IT ALL CONFUSED TOO BECAUSE I LOOKED THEM BOTH UP, IF I REMEMBER RIGHT ONE IS JOHN'S WIFE AND THE OTHER HIS DAUGHTER, BUT HIS DAUGHTER WASN'T BORN TILL AFTER 1200 I BELIEVE? IDK, ITS A MOVIE

[mythopathy]

OK OK APPARENTLY THEY DID THEIR RESEARCH. BUT WHERE DOES RUSTY GET OFF BADMOUTHING MEN IN TIGHTS EH?

[snowystingray]

I WAS INTERESTED IN THIS BACK WHEN IT WAS GOOD SHERIFF/BAD ROBIN. NOW... I SERIOUSLY DO NOT CARE. MIDDLE AGED PASTY WHITE FELLOWS. YAWN. "HISTORICAL ACCURACY." YAWN. GOOD TRIUMPHS EVIL. YAWN. "REVISIONIST" WARRIOR MAZ. YAWN. GLADIATOR-ESQUE "EPICNESS." YAWNYAWNYAWNYAAAAWNNNNN.

NO TUCK? REALLY? LAME. WHAT IS WITH THIS TENDENCY TO DIMINISH THE IMPORTANCE OF RELIGIOUS FIGURES IN ROBIN HOOD STORIES? I DO NOT APPROVE.

I DO APPROVE OF MAX VON SYDOW, HOWEVER, SO AT LEAST THEY'VE GOT THAT GOING FOR THEM.

[andlooknorth]

YES, MAX VON SYDOW PLAYING THE BELOVED CHARACTER _______

[mythopathy]

IRONY? HE WAS LITTLE JOHN IN THE ONE WITH HEPBURN AND CONNERY.

[mai_shiranui]

NAH. THAT WAS NICOL WILLIAMSON.

[x_bohemienne]

THIS MOVIE PISSES ME OFF SO MUCH ALREADY I CAN'T EVEN-GUH.
RUSS THE CROW IS TOO FREAKIN' OLD FOR THE ROLE. WHY DIDN'T THEY PICK SOMEONE YOUNGER? HOW ABOUT JAMES FRANCO OR HELL ZAC FREAKIN' EFRON WOULD'VE BEEN BETTER. CATE IS AN AMAZIN ACTRESS, BUT NOT MARIAN. WHAT ABOUT ROMOLA GARAI OR KEIRA THE FREAKIN' KNIGHTLEY?

NO GUY? OMFG I CAN'T....I....OH GAWD. AND ALLAN'S NEW NAME SPELLING? DAYLE?1!???!!!!111^$*#*

*DIES*

ZEFRON HOOD. ZOMG I AM SO IN LOVE WITH THAT. BE GLAD THAT AT THE MOMENT I AM NOT ON A COMP WITH PHOTOSHOP.

[andlooknorth]

THIS NEEDS TO BE SHOPPED ASAP. OUR ROBS AND ZEFRON HAVE THE SAME HAIR AND EVERYTHING.

[snowystingray]

I JUST (VERY UNWISELY) TYPED "ZAC EFRON" INTO GOOGLE IMAGES AND AUGH AUGH AUGH AUGH AUGH ETC. ETC. IF ANYBODY HAS ANY BASE IMAGES TO PROVIDE I'D BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO SLAP A PIEFACE ON IT, BUT I AM UNWILLING TO SUBJECT MYSELF TO SIFTING THROUGH THE INTERWEBS FOR PHOTOSHOP FODDER. (AUGH AUGH AUGH AUGH AUGH.)

[snowystingray]

OH, I COMPLETELY FORGOT TO COMMENT ON KEVIN DURAND AS LITTLE JOHN. ANY OTHER LOST FANS HERE? FUCKING KEAMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I CAN NEVER LOOK AT THAT FUCKER'S FACE AGAIN. SORRY. SEPARATION OF ACTOR/CHARACTER NEED NOT APPLY.

[andlooknorth]

OMG I DIDNT EVEN REALIZE IT WAS FUCKING KEAMY (NEVER BOTHERED TO LEARN/RECOGNIZE THAT ACTOR'S NAME).

BRB KILLING SELF. I APPARENTLY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SIT THROUGH THIS MOVIE.
