Are you sure? Prince Of Thieves was an absolute crock! Errol Flynnes Robin Hood was OTT but it was a great film even though it was completely inaccurate historically.

The best retelling of Robin Hood was the U.K T.V series 'Robin Of Sherwood' which had a soundtrack by Clannad and a sense of realism and a religious undertone that was suggested rather than rammed down the throat.

Shame on Ridley Scott if it turn's out poor.
