But its necessary to establish his bona fides as a warrior. Cannoli Send a noteboard - 15/05/2010 11:42:15 PM
Modern people don't understand the domestic combat opportunities avialable then, and assume you need to be a foreign combat veteran in order to be a badass. There might also be some notion about needing to pay your dues to king and country before you can rightfully take up arms for your own reasons, and of course, what filmmaker can resist the chance to draw Vietnam & Iraq parallels.

I think I'm going to invade Ridley Scott's backyard with French boats. Makes as much sense. Rebekah - 14/05/2010 06:26:33 PM 588 Views
Yeah well, what's the point in trying to write a balanced and open minded review... ironclad - 15/05/2010 12:41:46 PM 592 Views
It is very, very tough to walk from France to England Cannoli - 15/05/2010 12:51:20 AM 652 Views

If this is an origin story why is Robin Hood being played by a bloated guy in his late 40's? *NM* Marius2000 - 14/05/2010 06:12:04 PM 372 Views
That is an excellent question. *NM* Rebekah - 14/05/2010 06:27:19 PM 280 Views

Because very few people come back from a 10-year crusade in their 20s? *NM* Cannoli - 15/05/2010 12:39:00 AM 287 Views
The Robin Hood as a crusader is an unnecessary modern addition anyway. *NM* snoopcester - 15/05/2010 05:34:31 PM 274 Views
