A Robin Hood movie but it's set in the 70s and Robin and his gang are a far-left urban guerrilla group.

It's pretty funny how Richard the Lionheart, who is generally portrayed in Robin Hood stories as being the Good King in opposition to the incompetent or even tyrannical King John and has sort of been canonized as being one of the best English kings, spent maybe six months in England during his reign and probably barely spoke a word of (Middle) English. Since he was quite into crusading and basically all of his most valuable holdings were in the French part of his kingdom where he was born and raised. e: I think the oldest versions of the story we have actually have it set during the reign of Edward I (the badguy from Braveheart) so we could theoretically get a Braveheart/Robin Hood crossover. Or maybe it was one of the other Edwards, there was a few. FreudianSlippers fucked around with this message at 02:07 on Dec 21, 2017 |

Timby posted:That's because that whole thing was thoroughly hosed with. When Scott was originally developing it with Crowe in mind, the script was called Nottingham, and the idea was that the Sheriff of Nottingham and Robin Hood were the same person. Scott and the studio got cold feet and it was re-tooled into a traditional story. I´ve also heard that at some point it was meant to be a medieval police procedural thing with Robin Hood as a sort of mythic figure that everyone talks about but would never be shown directly.

Alternatively: A ska cover of the MASH theme. Polka cover of Love Will Tear Us Apart. Just Entry of the Gladiators playing throughout the entire trailer.

Maxwell Lord posted:"Most Wonderful Time of the Year" has a lyric about telling spooky ghost stories. Yeah telling ghost stories is a Christmas tradition in some places. I think it's mostly a thing in Britain. Over here in Iceland Christmas (or Yule) is heavily associated with monsters. Such as the gargantuan Yulecat who eats everyone who does not receive any clothes for Christmas. His owner is Grıla, an ancient child eating ogress. Among her hundreds of monstrous children are the Yulelads who are basically the Icelandic equivalent of Santa. The oldest mentions of Grıla are from the poetic Edda written by Snorri Sturluson around 1220.
