ROBIN HOOD PRINCE OF THIEVES IS STARTING ON BBC ONE
"This is ENGLISH courage," Kevin Costner announces unironically in a thick American accent. #PrinceOfThieves
Alan Rickman was a MAGNIFICENT actor and he's clearly having the best time in this film
They've arrived at the white cliffs of Dover and now proceed to walk to Nottingham via Hadrian's Wall in Scotland, with Robin announcing "we'll be dining in my father's hall by nightfall".
Dan is also into it.
Also everyone is speaking modern English, at a time when the nobility spoke French and the clergy spoke Latin
I had a crush on Rickman as the Sheriff and I stand by that
Why does everyone cut the EXTREMELY SENSITIVE palm of their hands when swearing a vow?? Just do the back of your arm or something, @bartzs13 and I regularly yell about this.
Mortiana's nails always creeped me out
"The years have...been kind" pops into my head all the time
Robin not understanding telescopes is a great moment
EVERYTHING is wrong in this film, they have a coniferous forest as Sherwood
You should guess Will Scarlet is Robin's half brother by the fact they both have American accents
And speaking of accents, Little John is from the West Country. No one even has a modern Nottinghamshire accent.

This film goes harder than it needs to on class politics and the corruption of greed
"I'm going to CUT your heart out with a SPOON!!"
"Why a spoon, cousin?"
LOVE me a montage.
Ah, Robin splitting an arrow with his arrow. God I love this film.
I say "something vexes thee?" every chance I get
Timely
Canadian Friar Tuck!
Poor Guy of Gisburn. "At least it wasn't a spoon."
Robin naked in the waterfall was a LOT for younger me to experience
Love that Fanny survives a Casaerean with no anaesthetic and no antibiotics
Remember when the theme song was number one for like a thousand years?
THE MONSTROUS CELTS
