What Issues Do We Have With Robin Hood?
From Wratty @ 11/12/2006 11:14:00 PM
- There are four locations, "The Woods", "Nottingham Castle", "Loxley" and "Misc Village that is basically Loxley from a different angle or a house has moved somewhere else"
- Each location is introduced by an annoying whooshing sound followed by an arrow with the location name through it. Every time we sit there hoping it will hit someone. We also wish they'd just paint the name on the local goat like they did with the day of the week on Teachers.
- There is no treehouse village for the merry men to live in. How can you not have a village in the trees? They are going to get caught.
- They all wear clothes from gap. Apart from Guy of Gibbon who shops at the Lake District.
- "Much" has the worlds stupidest name and looks nothing like Morgan Freeman. We don't even think he's black. It's also possible he's involved in a love triangle with Robin.
- Marian's whole Night Watchman thing. There are too many outlaws. If you have as many outlaws as this series has accumulated then how is the sherrif going to survive with his pool of 10 guards?
- Robin has the chance to kill the sherrif each week and decides not to. We're also happy about this because Fat Les is one of the show's few redeeming factors.
We actually do like a couple of things. We like the plain features of the land. We like Maid Marian, but we preferred her with long hair. We actually had a plan the other day of inventing our own series with Maid Mario but got sidetracked and realised by midday it wasn't such as good idea after all.
What else do we like? Erm, we also like Torchwood for it's Doctor Who connectivity and it's interesting take on "adult" storylines. We also like Planet Earth and Annie Mac. Thanks BBC.

Ok two comments in the artical confused me. First you said that "Much has the worlds stupidest name and looks nothing like Morgan Freeman." Fact number one Much The Millers Son was one of the Merry Men from the earliest recorded versions of the Robin Hood Legand. Much is English, & a catholic, were as Morgan Freemans charcter Azeem is a Moor, & a Muslim. Azeem was created for the movie as that was the 1st time the idea of Robin being in the crusade was introduced to the legand. Second you said "there are too many outlaws". Once again I refer you to the recorded legands which say that Robin Hood had over 80 men under his command. Problems I have with the show are that Alan-A-Dale was not one of the merry men but was said to be Sir Alan De Tranmire, who was an ally of Robin's, but was not under his command. Second that Maid Marian does not get killed till 16yrs after King Richard returns from the Crusade, when she gets shot by Sir Isenbart De Belame. I sugest that you check your facts in futer.
