This week, we head to Sherwood Forest to revisit Disney’s animated classic Robin Hood (1973). With animal outlaws, corrupt royalty, catchy folk songs, and one of Disney’s most lovable duos in Robin and Little John, does this laid-back cult favorite still hold up, or is it just nostalgia talking? We break down the movie’s charm, recycled animation, iconic music, and surprisingly sharp themes about power, greed, and heroism, all while trying to decide if Prince John is secretly one of Disney’s funniest villains ever. Oo-de-lally!!
