Robin Hood

http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20090310/...us_robinhood_1

For those not in the know there's gonna be yet another adaption of Robin Hood. The film was originally titled Nottingham and would have had Robin Hood and the Sherriff be played both by Russell Crowe. Altho that since has changed to just Russell playing only Robin.

Well more folks have been cast in the film (out next year):
Cate Blanchett - Maid Marion
Scott Grimes - Robin Hood's nephew, Will Scarlet (note: in Prince of Thieves Will Scarlet was Robin's brother....)
Kevin Durand (The Blob in X-Men Origins Wolverine, Martin Kearny in Lost): Little John
Alan Doyle (lead singer of the Canadian Band Great Big Sea): Alan A Dale.

I like the sound of the cast. I think Cate Blanchett will make a great Maid Marion. Everything I see her in though I just think her as Galadriel. It sounds very promising!

Ridley Scott is the only thing that'll get me to see this movie.

Men in Tights is one of my favorite movies. It is what I put on when I just want to not think and just laugh.

Now I'm even more intrigued by this movie.

the image of crowe as Robin hood reminds me about "Robin and marian" where Sean Connery plays Robin Hood.

Even though Russel is a good actor I dont look forward to him as Robin. I think Im just getting to use to watching the Robin Hood show that has Jonas Armstrong playing Robin.

I loved the Jonas Armstrong show but the final season was just WEIRD. Friar Tuck was a Brotha, Robin's brother was a ninja...and well the way the series ended....

I think you're ahead of me on this show. Nz just played the episode where Robin and Guy got knocked out by Robin's father and told about Archer who must be the ninja you mentioned.

I just seen the final episode and I was dissapointed Robin & Guy got nocked off. I wonder if the show is at its end or will there now be an "Archer Hood" show. What did you think of the final showdown apart from it been weird?

That was the series finale and Im glad. The finale was just...insanely weird with all the ninja weopons being used. Im gonna miss the Sherriff tho (the male one). He was sooo deliciously evil and my fave character.
