Couldn't they have got someone English?
It's just because his name will - and it will - bring in more money.
That aspect of the movie industry really annoys me.
Sorry. Good anim, though.

Though I have to admit that I found it a little odd that they got a Chinese girl to play the role in Memoirs of a Geisha. You can't tell me they couldn't have gotten a good looking Japanese girl for the role.

Anyone seen this yet? Is his accent really that bad?
I heard he drifts between Irish/Aus quite a bit.

his accent did sound a bit Irish at times, but then people of that time were all mixed up from all over the country and he had just spent 10 years on the Crusades with celts, picts and english of all varieties, so I'm happy to defend it.
the film is a cross between Gladiator and Monty Python's Search for the Holy Grail, but is nice n pithy and some good historical references.
It's not like any other Robin hood type film I've seen before. It's kind a of a prequel to the traditional Robin hood
ironically I also saw Cop Out afterwards, and there is a teddy bear in it just like that one.

as part of the film is about him learning/remembering where he came from and he'd been in the army for years his mixed up accent makes sense, but it is irritating for the first hour and a half
the history is a little messed up in terms of chronology but on the whole I really enjoyed it, and I'm a Nottingham lad

Who says films have to be Historically accurate?
(I think there should have been a Death Star in there somewhere)

I actually paid to see the new Nightmare on Elmstreet the other week with the missus! Oh dear.

My favourite bit of Robin Hood was the credits. But that's because my best friend worked on the film :OD
But I enjoyed it too. As long as you're not expecting Prince of Thieves then you'll have a good time.

like POT, they've ripped off Rickman for the Sheriff, and the lion in Disney's for King John

Generally a good standard of hollywood historical actiony thing, but occasionally it has a sudden and lurching segue into monty python. And some scenes make no sense.
Why the fuck does Marion turn up at the end with a load of orphans on shteland ponies? What, she rode all the way from Nottingham with them, in order to throw a load of kids with sticks into an actual war? What kind of mentalist cunt is she? Or is she just trying to get rid of them?

You walk around a field in the dark. People steal things from you, and they have machines to make you nauseous.
