Longer Prince of Thieves

[chriswallace85]

Anyone watching Robin Hood on Five??? Been a few scenes in it that I've never seen before - mainly the Sheriff and the Witch.

I knew they apparently cut Rickman out of the film quite a bit because he was stealing the show, but didn't know a longer version than the one I had on video was available.

Iirc the original cinema film had a few scenes cut out to go on video, so sounds like they're showing the original on 5.

Rickman totally steals the show. A brilliant villain.

You! My room. 10.30. You - 10.45. Bring a friend.

Loxley I'll cut your heart out with a spoon
Sire? Why a spoon?
It's duller than a knife you twit. It'll huuuuuurt mooooooore!

Loxley do you mind? We've just been married!

Interesting. I went to see it at the pics but was only a nipper at the time so don't recall that. Loved Robin Hood when I was about 4-6. Wore my original tape of this film out so me mam had to take it back to Woolies and get a new 'un. Seen it loads and loads and still don't tire of it.

You can tell if it's the video version or not when Rickman gets Marion on the floor trying to shag her just as Robin bursts throughout the window. in the film, he put his feet in between her legs and forced them open. In the video they cut it out.

Actually, you're right, I have it on now and there's some scenes I've never seen. And I watch it tons in my teens. This must be the directors cut!
