A lot of movies nowadays seem like they’re made to not get laughed at. Like they’re afraid of audiences who find things melodramatic or unrealistic. And I think Robin Hood needs melodrama.

[(Anonymous)]

This is 100% right on the money.

[(Anonymous)]

Movie makers right now are terrified of sincerity. They always gotta wink at the audience as if to say "its okay, we know this is a movie", and I wish they'd stop it.

[(Anonymous)]

Hear, hear.

Also: don't kill off Maid Marian.

You want a straight retelling of the legends and folklore? Which ones? For King Arthur, the historical sources that were written 300 years after the one of the guys who was possibly Arthur (or Arturus, Artōrius, etc.) lived, Monmouth's version written 600 years after Arthur, de Troyes' version that added to Monmouth's, Malory's version written 900 years after Arthur, or something else? For Robin Hood, one of the different 15th Century ballads, Stow's version, one of the many different 16th, 17th, 18th, and 19th Century stage versions, Pierce Egan the Younger's children's version, Pyle's children's version, or something else?

Not op but I would die if joy if someone made a Robin Hood film based on Pyle's version. I LOVED that book as a kid. I would also die if joy if someone made a movie based on any part of Monmouth's Historia. That book is a RIDE

DA

[(Anonymous)]

I also read Pyle's version in primary school and I had so much trouble remembering who wrote it! thanks for giving me a name to look up, anon

[(Anonymous)]

You know exactly what is meant, but if you wanna play that game then fine; the Tony Robinson version. Happy now, a$$h0le?

[(Anonymous)]

DA
No I don't know what this secret means. This is mythological shit it differs through the years. It supposed to have different takes.
So you wanted a musical comedy? Fair. Just say so

[(Anonymous)]

ayrt

I don't actually know, sorry. As far as I can tell with both of these, there isn't just one point of reference, but a lot of different ones. A lot of the versions I've seen have just so many different bits and pieces from different writers and different times that I'm not sure what would constitute a straight retelling. However, if you were to have just one source, then I guess I could see it.

[ariakas]

I want the OG Welsh Arthur, who is just somebody's cousin from the 600s who likes boar hunting lmao

[meadowphoenix]

yeah i agree what is "traditional" or "straightforward"? no adaptation of folklore is not translating it through a current sensibility at any rate.

[tabaqui]

I really liked the 'Herne the Hunter'/mystic/supernatural/fae vibe that that old '80s Robin Hood series had....
Robin of Sherwood.

[(Anonymous)]

I feel like I could've written this in my sleep. YES, I would very much like to see more traditional/straightforward adaptations of both these things. No dark n'gritty Game of Thrones lookalikes, no fresh takes, no modern AU and please for the love of god cast actors who can do a proper accent.
