Big Hello here too!!!

Good to have an english RoS thread now!!! Thanks!

I m a bit excited now coz we just installed a new satellite dish on our roof with which we are now able to watch all the important british channels like BBC and ITV. And as you might know ITV is showing the RoS atm (unfortunately the Jason Connery episodes ) and today was the day that I finally was able to watch an episodes after not seeing this series  for over 20 years! *jumps around*

Well what can I say: It was quite entertaining though I could not warm to JC performance of RH. Sorry to say this but he played the role like a piece of wood.... very dissapointing... BUT this was all forgotten as soon as GoG and the sheriff came in sight!!! I liked them really very much! :clapping:

Can t wait for next sunday to come and bring the next episode!

ghostinthefog congratulations with this satellite installation. it must be a tremendous exitement
as for watching RoS the 3d season, i really couldnt post a comment cause i havent watched this season especially because of Jason. I think you just put it right - his "wooden" play doesnt make me want to see the series. For me the RoS movie is over with the death of Robin Hood at the end of the 2d season.
I don't think that i miss something if i don't watch the 3d season. I'm only a little bit sad that i can't watch Robin's team in action again but i'm so disapointed with the impression of Jason that i can't make myself watching the 3d season
Do you know whether ITV are going to show the first 2 seasons?
I think Bobby is right - these series are worthwhile watching because of the Sheriff and Sir Guy. They were always great and now they obviously must make the play

me too i think Michael Praed is the best Robin ever. he really makes the play
i think the movie passed the test of time and is still thrilling and beautiful. i've never seen something that reached the same level in terms of the main character play, the team and the script.
how was it for your Andromeda with watching this movie 20 years later? me too i watched it with the same break and you can't imagine how fascinated i was. i thought i would only be thrilled to see the beloved movie of my childhood and i saw the magical world that hit me right into my heart to stay forever. the scene of Robin and Marian's first meeting is a gem, isnt it? i've never seen anything more romantic than this in movies  :give_rose:

There was a very nice picture of Michael in the accompanying booklet:

Re-watching it after such a long time was great! And no, not just a piece of childhood pie (I wasn't that young back then...  :blush2: ). But it really had it's own magic still, not like some other films I've seen after long years and was a bit disappointed with them now. If I would have seen the films for the first time now, I still would have liked them. I think they're really a piece of good television!

The first meeting of Robin and Marian really is romantic (but the place for the most romantic movie scene ever is still occupied with the train station scene from North & South!).

Oh, and the mystery about those "deleted scenes" seems to have cleared up. From what I read (I haven't seen them yet) they're deleted scenes from the documentary and are mostly things like "Michael is getting directions from the director" or "the actors warming up" or things like that.

Hi, Andromeda!

I always was afraid to reconsider films which liked in the childhood. I was afraid of disappointment and didn't want disappointment. Unfortunately, it is a lot of books and films have not passed the examinations of time.
But this serial - exception. It is full of magic and positive energy, it still finds the response in soul.
It not only a meeting with the childhood. It is a meeting with myself.

I watched the ep. with this woman (witch) who lives in the wood with her pigs. And Robins uncle forced her to sign a confession that she is a witch.

Anyway, near to the end Robin is standing on the wall and Guy is sneaking onto him and tries to take away his bow. Then they jostle a bit and in the next scene you see Robin in the wood again and you get the feeling you lost it somewhere  :/

I know that Robin is meant to win every fight but it would be much better if they would have made this fight more convincing so that you can actually see that Robin is much more clever and a better fighter than Guy ....

My personal favorite fight scene (to date) is a) the final fight between Basil Rathboone and Errol Flynn and b) the final fight between Kevin Costner and Alan Rickman (ooooh, another hot baddie in black leather!!!  )

Exactly!!!

I saw Guy taking away Robins arrow and Robins ridicilous beating into Guys face (?)  but noone can tell me a guy like this Robin bloke can knock out a big tall man like Guy!!! NO WAY! Very unconvincing indeed  :threaten:

So I will watch the next ep. this sunday and hope to see a proper fight!  :clapping:

I shall allow myself to notice, that  Robin in the third season has no right to be called as  Robin Hood. The actor is not able to play. Robert Hantington could not turn Robin Hood.
I completely agree, that fights are absolutely unreal. Absolute completely nonsense.  :threaten:
In real conditions sir Guy would kill Robert in the first fight.  :yes:  :paladin:
Use of a magic sword which we name " the Sword with batteries " humiliates the hero. Robin should win enemies himself, without magic swords, mirrors and drinks.  :big_boss:

Yes, we are  like to have fun and think out ridiculous names.    I'm glad, that it was pleasant to you.  :yes: The wooden hero has the Electronic sword with batteries   

He is really wooden. The wooden hero can nothing without a magic sword. Sir  Guy has only a usual sword and own force. Who worthy respect?
