The problem is people don’t even know what the original Robin Hood tale was about. he didn’t steal from the rich to give too the poor in the way we perceive it he stole from an illegitimate government unlawfully taxing its citizens as well as thieves masquerading as beggars and corrupt members of the church (but he always gave that money back to the church to be used as it was intended). Robin Hood himself was a noble and stopped his work when the legitimate king returned and even fought for him in several wars eventually leading to his death. He was never a "f*ck the system" figure his story taught the valuable lessons of not obeying someone just because they say they are the authority and to respect and fight for the actual authority of your government. The classical Robin Hood would have shot this brat for being a thief and disrupting legitimate law.

[@LeutnantJoker]

Not sure why people don't get that. It's right there in the story. The problem wasn't the rich, the problem was Prince John usurping the throne of his brother and destroying the kingdom. And the peasants Robin was protecting and helping didn't want to get rid of the rich, they wanted their legitimate king back.

The worst part is that they thought it was against black stereotypes. It actually plays into them and I don't understand how the director never saw it. One of the best b horrror movies ever is Tales from the hood, the people who made this bs should watch and learn how to actually empower black people without seeming mentally challenged and extremely racist. Tales has actually impacted the black community so much that many black men have told the creators that they made these men rethink their destructive behaviors. If a b horror flick can have such positive impact on people, any well made art can do the same. But it seems Western writers and directors are so entitled that they cannot see this potential. And taking the stories of white heroes and giving to non-white people strikes me as condescending. It's like giving latinos, like me, Namor or Blue Beetle.

Let's not forget the nuance of the real Robin Hood which Director X seems to have bravely avoided, like being a fallen nobleman fighting after losing everything. Then there's the plot where Robin steals gold to help everyone who's suffering, before helping themselves. Basically, why is he a hero and not just a bandit with a bow?

[@jameso1447]

Robin Hood was a nobleman who rebelled against the government which was poorly run while the king was fighting in the Crusades. It overtaxed and impoverished the the people so Robin Hood began raiding tax collectors and returning gold to the people. He saved the people (poor people in particular) from Joe Biden until the true king returned.

[@princestarfy4098]

My favorite part of Robin Hood was that he was a Noble. He wasn’t helping himself. He could of easily just got in line and profited off the corruption just like the other nobles. But he felt a sense of obligation to his citizens. He choose to fight corruption that would of benefited him. He’s fighting for a world where he makes less money and has less power, for the benefit of the people he rules over. He is what a noble should be.

In the second episode they plan to sell the car to spend the money on a party for themselves. In the meantime, John Prince visits Robyn's mom at the hospital with chocolate and flowers, apologizes for what happened, offers to pay for her medical bills and hire professional doctors to make sure she will walk again, is willing to gift her 1 million dollars for her family to get back on their feet (it is implied her daughters cannot access to education and therefore they are stuck in poverty), for the simple request of stopping the protesting and going to live somewhere else.
