This Robin Hood is unforgetable
For years I've enjoyed watching this movie. I recently joined the Disney Movie Club and picked this movie up for my 3 year old son to watch. And of course he loved it, and as I watched him watching it, it reminded me of the first time I watched it.This movie was was made in the early 70's when Disney wasn't turning out a lot of animated movie. Besides this movie and The Rescuers Disney didn't have a lot going on in the animation department (but they put out some great live-action films).The cast for this movie is exceptional especially Phil Harris who puts the voice to Little John. If his voice sounds familiar it's because Harris also voiced Baloo in "The Jungle Book" and Thomas O'malley in "The Aristocats". Some would critisize Disney by using Harris again. They would say Little John and Baloo are essentially the same character. And my response it, so what. Baloo is a great character and Little John just makes Harris look that much better.The story is flowing and funny. My favorite part of the film has to be the music. It so great and contagious that I can't help but sing the songs hours after the movie is over.So pick this one up and enjoy this Disney classic with the whole family.***My one regret is that it doesn't have a special edition version, maybe Disney will do that soon.
