    Ridley Scott's "Robin Hood"



    I'm mixed on this. How many times have we seen the Robin Hood Story? Too many I think. At the same time though...it's Russel Crow and Ridley Scott, so they could make it worth while.

    It's a great story in general and has been around forever so i think they'll keep doing it every few years or so. It all depends on what they do with it. This looks like it could be good and like you said, it's Crow and Ridley...

    It looks pretty cool. Sure the same Robin Hood story has been around forever, but look how many books are out there with different authors? I'm sure different director's want a different shot at the story as well.

    That's not to say it's overdone. Personally, I've never seen a satisfying adaptation of it.

    I think that if it is done right than I have no problem watching another version of the story. I think that as long as it is done right and not all over the place than I will be fine with a new movie for the old story.

    That's pretty much what I was gonna say... I've seen some interesting takes on it, but not one single movie that really did it righteously...

    If it's Ridley Scott, then it's gotta damn good chance of being a damn good movie.
