Robin Hood #8

 

Oo da la ly, I forgot how good Robin Hood is! As sad as I was that Fox and the Hound didn't make the top ten I definitely have found a second favorite. I mean, who knew Disney could combine helping the poor (we'll forget the stealing part for this blog, hehe) and a super cute love story all together in an overall, masculine way! No boy ever remembers that love scene and I guarantee no gal ever forgets it ;)

Obviously this one tickled my fancy and I def. give it a 10 (scale 1-10). Okay so those of you who haven't seen this movie in a while here's a little summary. [opening song] "Robin Hood and Little John walking through the forest (whistle, whistle, whistle)..." Robin Hood is the spry young fellow who can shoot bulls eye on any ol' target and Little John is the not so little bear that joins Robin Hood in his adventures. These two together make a great pair and help many families in Nottingham. They both love to help others out, in a very selfless way (great example, huh!). Maid Marian is the beautiful fox the kids run into outside of Prince John's castle. She is sooo sweet and very much a female version of Robin Hood (cupid's arrow here). In the end Robin Hood and Little John defeat Prince John and his army so that they can save Nottingham from being taxed to death. To top this tale off Maid Marian and Robin Hood tie the knot @ the local chapel and start their adventure as one beautiful couple!

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, it especially reminded me of a little boy I babysat recently. It was his first time to watch Robin Hood and it was such a reward to watch his excitement as he saw new adventures and ideas minute by minute! Needless to say Robin Hood definitely did his duty on this top ten list!
