Description

The Rotoscopers gang is back in action in this extra long, 2-hour episode, where they talk about one of their all-around favorite Disney animated classics: Robin Hood!
Highlights:

■ Interview with Rotoscopers' writer Mayra Amaya!
■ Main Discussion: Robin Hood--the holy grail of funny Disney films.
■ Voice acting filled with Disney veterans (read Blake's opinion piece about Robin Hood's voice actors); Accents = proper English and backwood rednecks.
■ A little history of Disney's Xerox era.
■ Disney's Robin Hood origins: Reynard the Fox.
■ Introduction uses reused animation, "Whistle Stop" = hamster dance, intro to Robin Hood and Little John, justification, 
■ Sir Hiss is a well designed character; Prince John is a weak, pathetic, hilarious villain; "Beautiful, lovely TEXAS!"
■ Morgan's "solid gold hub caps", the honorable sherrif of Nottingham, wolves are always the villains.
■ Clucky is the sassy black woman; Maid Marian; the little critter children; blundering Friar Tuck.
■ The archery tournament: Sir Reginald Duke of Chutney, are you sick of the quotes yet?.
■ The scene & song that stops the momentum: "Love."
■ "The Phony King of England": jamming to Bluegrass all night; reused animation; becomes a top-40 hit overnight.
■ Songs: what is the best song?
■ Different versions of the DVD; alternate endings; the marriage!
■ We rate it!
■ Bloopers. Lots of out-of-context bloopers.
