I still prefer Cary Elwes' Robin Hood, since he actually spoke with an English accent. Costner's accent faded about 2 scenes into the movie.

nope, Mel Brooks’ Men In Tights is the best Hood story! (…I was still a teen back then - not that much different now)

Sycamore Gap in Northumberland, UK. …. Shot with my 8mm 1.8.

De-fished in camera?

Yeah, not even all the budget of Prince of Thieves could get it past the wobbly acting and story. It was your classic '90s movie though. Loaded with popular actors of the time, blockbuster theme song, shallow story. Length was classic Costner. That guy just couldn't be brief!

I do love that Costner's version had a cameo by Sean Connery, and Brooks countered with PatStew!

I don’t care if I’m in the minority, but I loved Prince of Thieves when I was young. I liked men in tights just fine, but Costner’s was one of my favorites.

It's not de-fished at all! I've found that, as long as the main subject's not too close, there's nothing prominent by the edge of the frame and you keep the camera level, the fishy effect is not particularly noticeable, especially in natural environments where straight lines are not present. If you do want to have the effect, just tilt the camera upwards or downwards a little bit!

I was in high school when it came out, and we owned it on VHS. Watched it more times than I can recall. They are obviously two different styles of movies, so not really in direct competition. There were quite a few of those spoof-style movies back then, Naked Gun, Hot Shots, Austin Powers, and some others I'm drawing a blank on at the moment.

I was in middle school when it came out, and I recall seeing it in the theaters maybe 8 times. More than any other movie I’ve ever seen in the theaters by far (runner up is maybe two times?). Hell, now that I think about it, I haven’t been to a movie theater since maybe 2012? Yikes.

I gave up on theaters (and keeping up with movies in general) for years. Last one we went to was pre-smartphone, and even then people ruined the experience by T9 texting and talking and such. I realized the movie theater experience was dead when the girl 3 seats down from us took a phone call in the middle of the movie!

“Robin Hood”, 1937 with Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland filmed in the Thousand Oaks area! Love it!

since we went Hood taking I always enjoy the 1976 “Robin and Marian” film

Hell, while we’re at it, the Disney cartoon Robin Hood where the characters were foxes was pretty great.
