078 - Rebooting: Robin Hood [1973]

"You cannot understand my disdain for this movie unless you know my anger about what happened to Star Wars" - Ken (one of the hosts of The Rewinders Podcast)

 

In one of the most meandering episodes of the The Rewinders Podcast, the hosts talk about this Disney animation gem - and what it meant to them as children... and how it feels today.

 

Within the "Reboot" theme of this part of season 3, Disney's Robin Hood is discussed over its Disney+ exclusive reboot plan.

 

This Robin Hood movie is not only animated, but has animals instead of people. Animals that think that they are people! This is what the world would look like if they just evolved with opposable thumbs, so they could use bows, swords, lutes, and choke their snakes.

 

(why does my browser insist the word opposable is spelled wrong? Its making me nervous!)

 

Anyway, its a movie most of the hosts have been watching for years, if not most of their lives. See if they think it still holds up!
