WWTD 131 - The Story of Robin Hood and His Merrie Men: Burger King

It's remarkable to think that Disney has been making theatrical films for nigh on eighty years, and they still haven't cracked the formula - sometimes they put out bona fide classics, sometimes they put out real stinkers. So it's always a surprise when we go deep into the Disney Canon and pull out something from their early years, and it turns out better than our hosts expected. This week on We Want The D, Vicky, Nolan and Jill watch the second fully live action movie the House of Mouse ever produced, THE STORY OF ROBIN HOOD AND HIS MERRIE MEN, and all three were pleasantly surprised at the competency on display. Shot on location in Sherwood Forest, featuring period costuming and set design, and actors who really embraced this family friendly version of a classic tale. Don't get us wrong, this is no cartoon fox version of the Robin Hood story, but its still a solidly entertaining outing all the same.
