I haven't seen Robin Hood yet – but I have it in the Tivo to watch tomorrow (or whenever); so I'll let you know...

Now you say that, but then that's such a strange movie that it's hard to tell what they were thinking.
The first half, is exactly like you say; and then about half-way through, it's like everyone got bored and started making a different movie... The second half is (almost) a straight costume drama, which makes (or at least try's to make) some serious points about meritocratic society vs. class and nobility... All very odd. Still quite an entertaining movie though... If one's in the right mood.
