      My favorite was when they tried to do a D-Day landing, but in the Robin Hood world (Robin Hood, 2010):

        That is the Ridley Scott version. It was terrible but had a great cast.

          You can say that about a lot of Ridley scott movies.

            And I do. In fact I say that about the majority of Scott’s movies.

      Well you’ve got to really. The real story of robbing the poor to line the pockets of the rich doesn’t have the same ring to it.

        Real story? He’s a fictional character.

          He’s a character from folklore which is a bit different. He isn’t owned by any one author. He may be based on historical people with certain details embellished or altered, and then more fictional stories added on over time.

          His stories do include references to real historical people and events, such as the kings Richard I and John. The 1938 film (starring Errol Flynn) weaves these two into a story about Robin Hood leading a peasant revolt against John, tapping into Anglo-Saxon identity as a form of English nationalism.

          I’m pretty sure they’re saying that this fictional story about a fictional character is necessary be because the true story would be about Bezos and people would hate it.

          He’s a fictional character.

          Sorta? He’s a folk legend, which are often based in reality but highly exaggerated (more and more over time). So mostly yes, but probably at least partially no

              Prince of Thieves with Kevin Costner was also good.

              The best Robin Hood film is the one from 1938 starring Errol Flynn. That movie is a masterpiece!

                Man Alan Rickman and Michael Wincott playing off each other was just incredible!

                Wincott

                Why a spoon cousin? Why not an axe or a sword?

                Rickman

                Because it will hurt more you idiot!
