Well, THAT was a major disappointment

[panik]

Well, I was all keyed up and excited for this new Robin Hood they've been trumpetting for weeks and - we've got Robin as a bloody nobleman, the country's in dire straits because of wicked Prince John and his taxes while 'good' king Richard's away and... yawn. I'd hoped we were getting something new, something real, something that actually had something to say. I mean, I don't mean to be pickiy or anything, but why are the Normans all speaking English (and using long bows) and what was that anime-type bollocks with the swords?

Sheesh.

Thank goodness I didn't see it - well, I sort of saw about the last three minutes through a drunken crowd... they did all seem to be sneering derisively, now I think back *g*

... and bum, I missed the pretty naked men in tights? Gonna go sulk now! ::flounces::

Ooh. Sneering derisively. I wish I'd thought to do that at the time. It would have made that waste of 50 minutes seem so much more worthwhile

Ah well, it might have been good... I couldn't tell, I was surrounded by derisive drunks. Which says something about my lifestyle!
