Robin Hood, prince of dorks

[elaby]

While I'm working on this bibliography type thing, which is fairly mindless formatting, I'm also watching Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. I was so obsessed with this movie in middle school that even now I could probably quote the entire thing, complete with wordless exclamations and sound effects. Anyway, I was thinking about how I searched everywhere for the novelization, and when I got it, it was way different than the movie. Obviously the guy who wrote it thought he needed to manly it up a bit. There's a lot more violence and devil worshiping than actually figures into the movie, and Robin is hyper-masculine in comparison to Kevin Costner. Here we have an example:

Scene: Robin and Azeem show up at Locksley castle to find Robin's dad dead and hung up in a cage from the ceiling.

Book Robin: *punches the wall in a manly display of anger!*

Movie Robin: *clings to Azeem*

Just for the record, Alan Rickman is indeed the shit (as if anyone doubted this), and Morgan Freeman really does the best "What the hell am I DOING here with these idiots?" look.

Hahahaha, this movie is so bad. *enjoys it thoroughly*
