The fuck is this, John?

[Morieris]

I thought he was predicting what it might once again be pushed back to.

[shayhiri]

Oh.

 

I thought it was a BO result: OW/Dom/WW.

That was one bad trailer and what on Earth have Summit done to their logo?

[DAJK]

For once I'd like to see one of the Medieval movies do well, cause I'm tired of them ending with something along the lines of "and so the legend began" and then never getting to see "the legend" itself

[Mikasa Ackerman]

I don't agree with the Guy Ritchie King Arthur comparisons. That movie, as flawed and stupid as it was, had humour and life. This on the other hand looks dull and flat.

Lets face it, Robin Hood is going to bomb.

[Valonqar]

This trailer was so shit I couldn't even finish it. Something was so off. Everyone looked modern yet the set was still quasi medieval England and then they started to lift scenes from shitty Assassin's Creed trailer. BOMB.

Much as I like Taron, that was an underwhelming trailer. The slow-mo and fighting style had me thinking of it as Hawkeye’s origin story with Jaime Foxx as Nick Fury lol

That's probably going to happen someday and make a fortune. 

 

I don't know why Hollywood is still trying to make Medieval crap happen. Unless it has fantasy elements like LOTR and GoT, no dice. Also, RH is old generation hero while the new one has their own heroes. Making RH look like a modern day punk is not going to put butts in seats coz that's so generic. Just give up.

I can't with y'all clamoring over every stupid comic book movie and saying THIS looks ridiculous. LMAO. It looks like a blast. If it is half as good as AC bring it on.

Is it an unpopular opinion to say this doesn't look awful?

[DAJK]

I dunno, I liked the first trailer better. This looks like it's going to have a rather boring first half filled with training and derivative ''who's the thief'' plots from side characters, followed by a rather fun second half involving a heist etc etc

I am sick and tired of "New Takes" on classic stories, because they are never as good as the original stories themselves.

With Robin Hood, you have a problem that the Errol Flynn film did the classic Robin Hood legend so well it's very hard to top.

It was made in 1938,and had not dated a bit. And it is one of the most beautiful jobs of Color photograph in film history.

And from the trailers, deserves to.

I don't think the Errol Flynn version has anything to worry about when it comes to being replaced as the definitive film version of  Robin Hood.

[MrGamer]

Still looks bad, but I got my side of Mendelsohn cheese. That's all I wanted.

This is a great point. 

 

Walt Disney literally built his business by taking the best stories in the history of man and adapting them with incredible care and genius-level attention to detail within the new media of moving pictures.

 

These stories are timeless for a reason. Which also explains why the most popular recent Disney classic (Lion King) is just a retelling of Hamlet with a little Exodus thrown in.
