The only thing you need to know is that it's in the hands of Ridley Scott... that alone is enough to warrant seeing the film for.zHellas said:

From the Trailer it looks massively Mediocre.
Russel Crow is one of those actors who should not play established characters. Just new ones.
But thats just my opinion and i could be massively wrong.

Seeing as I was recently dragged to the cinema to see Clash of the Titans I will probably go and see this. I mean it can't be WORSE than Clash can it?
I mean I like Ridley, I like Crowe, but still not entirely sold on this, the very first thing I thought when I saw the trailer was Gladiator, which was a great film, but that was literally all I could picture throught the whole trailer. At worst it will be a mediocre Gladiator rehash, at best it will entertain for a couple of hours.

There was talk a few years back of a Robin Hood film in which Hood was portrayed as the villain. I thought it was this one, and that would have been interesting. From the trailers, however, it would seem that I'm mistaken.
Wow, I can't believe anyone's brought up The Adventures of Robin Hood with Errol Flynn yet. That movie is still considered the golden standard of Robin Hood adaptations and it was made in 30s back when Technicolor was new... Or is that just too old?
The only acceptable film adaptation of the legend of Robin Hood is the one starring Errol Flynn.
Costner sucked, Disney always sucks and Mel Brooks isn't funny.

Yeah same here...and Kate Blanchett is kinda fugly looking...not exactly how you'd want maid marrion to look..marter said:
EDIT: Does anyone actually think she's attractive?
well know my roommate said,
"ugh, it just looks like Medieval version of Gladiator..."
and my response is still
"...that's a BAD thing??"
I don't know much about it, but Ridley Scott doesn't let me down very often, and Russel Crowe is meant for these types of characters.
It's a movie that I'll reserve final judgment for when I see it

If it comes out the way it looks, it will most likely butcher the classic Robin Hood in every way. Damnit, stop modernizing all the good classics! Some of them don't need LoTR remodeling, you know!
Ridley Scott still owns my movie going soul for now, however.

Seriously... people need to have faith in this. The guy knows how to tell a damn story. I would go see a movie about a Vacuum Salesman if he directed it. Alien, Blade Runner, G.I. Jane, Gladiator, Black Hawk Down, Matchstick Men? This guy is one of the only directors currently relevant who can take a story like Robin Hood and make it relevant in today's film world. Have a little faith and optimism people.ShadowsofHope said:
