Robin Hood extras

Robin Hood was released to DVD this Tuesday, so of course I rushed out to buy it, curious about the director's cut. The extra scenes are amazing! and I cannot believe they were cut from the theatrical version. Love, love this movie and the soundtrack. Please let there be a sequel.

  2. I'm going to be an old grouch here and say that the movie WAS great except for the final scene. I just couldn't buy the idea of Marion turning up in full heavy armour with a bunch of little boys. And second grouch, I don't think Cate B... was right for the part, frankly.
    There will be a sequel. ♥♥♥

  3. Ruzu - well, there certainly was quite a bit of fighting in it!

  4. Kate - Ha. Maybe Cate was having an Elizabeth flashforward:) The Greenwood boys did seem a bit of a stretch against men in full battle gear.
    That said, I loved Cate in this role.

  9. I haven't seen it yet. I love the tale of Robin Hood, but quite frankly, there is something about Russell Crowe that I can't stand. I would much rather see- oh, maybe Viggo Mortensen in the lead role. Then I would watch it everyday! :)

  10. Shannon - I'd not seen much of his work before but was shocked that I loved him in this role.

    Viggo - oh yes:)

    Gypsy Moon really said Viggo as Robin Hood? HOW am I going to concentrate on *anything* else today??? A girl after my own heart.

  13. Angela - No doubt Viggo's performance in LOTR has left a lasting impression on all of us:)

  16. I'd have to agree with Shannon and others. I avoided this movie because of RC in the title role AND becoz of Cate too. Yeah, Viggo!
