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.

[@trime1015]

Just look at the old Disney version, that one captured it perfectly.

Everyone is out of touch. "I filled up the condom jar in case you need a re-up" is something written by a bunch of 50 year old white dudes trying to be hip and down with the message. No one in reality is using street slang for purchasing drugs for condoms. No one is storing condoms like a stash of drugs either.

[@FelixVyra]

What I like about this show the most is that the "villain" is the most sensible, intelligent and likable character who is also kind of a savage and based, and turns out is actually motivated by trying to do something good even if it will be seen negatively in the short term by some people. Meanwhile the "heroes" are just a bunch of stupid criminals who should be put into jail.

[@ToaDaGardeKat]

SFO's "The Association with Evil" makes it clear why, TL;DR; wokeoids oppose what Western culture stands for, and thus embraces evil imagery to show their opposition.

[@effysousa9873]

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. Thanks, we have our own mythology and stories.

Hes not stealing from the rich to give to the poor, he's stealing from a theif to return their legal property

[@shagohad3]

Eh, that really depends on which version your talking about. In the oldest stories we have, the stuff from mayday fairs, he stole from everyone. Later on, it became no farmers, yeoman, squires, knights or ladies. Then it became steal from the rich, give to the poor.

Why is that more morally okay than wanting to keep what you rightfully worked for? (which in the grand scheme of things, does a whole lot more to benefit the class system than forcible redistribution-people tend to be a lot more charitable when the money they’re spending or giving away is conceptually their own rather than something recycled by a third party interloper). So yes, to emphasize the sentiment-taxation is and always will be theft. Educate yourself.

[@Polygraphice]

@johnarkansas6033 Whether or not one agrees, the idea is that; if someone puts their time into earning money and the government (or anyone) claims they are entitled to some of it whether one likes it or not, it is the same as enslavement (albeit on a part time basis) because it forced one to devote their labor to another person against their will. Now usually with government one does get something back like infrastructure, police/public services, but to the thinking if one didn’t choose where to live or what they’d be taxed it’s inherently unfair. I will say in modern Europe it seems like the government in turn feels like they must give more back in return for their taxation, than is normal for America. Healthcare for instance.

What are its ratings? How many people actually watched it? And by that I mean live Tv, who went out of their way to sit down and view it at time of broadcast and not via catchup or streaming online? Then I would like to know how many people actually live in Canada and how many people own a tv. So we can see what percentage of the country is stupid enough to view it. Example, there are roughly 60 - 70 million people living in the UK now. Give or take the ones we know and dont know about. Doctor Who only got about 2 million viewers per episode over its last full season with Whitaker and the BBC went into raptures about how high the figures were. When they were actually less than when it was axed back in 1987/88 at 4.5 million or so. And there was about 20 million less people in the UK then! The BBC uses the sort of creative number fiddles that would make Disney proud. And use a thing called audience appreciation index instead. So they say out of the 2 million viewers Doctor Who rated as the most watched show of the week with the audience....BUT THERE WAS ONLY 2 MILLION VIEWING!!! The other 58 million plus people were not watching at all!!!!! Its comical.....If something like half the country was watching the show, or everyone with a tv etc as a percentage of the population then it might be impressive.....

Out of all the shows released this year everyone agrees this was one of them.

I'm Well tucked just watching those bits.

[@ciellight]

There is also to point out how in their daring escape Robyn and their Hood steal the Prince's car and threaten to kill his driver. 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. Who are the good guys again...?

[@TheZROLimit]

Not going lie. I'd take that deal. That sounds pretty reasonable. lol

[@marychocolatefairy]

I was so mad at the mom for refusing chocolates. Definitely someone I can't identify with at all. lol.

[@ciellight]

@@marychocolatefairy oh no, the chocolates(truffles) she kept xD The rest she refused and she binned the flowers. Go check disparu's review xD

[@ciellight]

@@TheZROLimit no wonder it's reasonable! Who would like to reject a giant life changing sum of money! Get out of the condo! Heal your paralisis! Give your kids the education they are asking for and stop them from going around committing crimes! Live a better life! "No, I am going to wallow in self pity and keep playing the victim"

Great argument: “You’re a real man ting, eh?”

[@clinteastwood14896]

I love the 1938 Robin Hood with Errol Flynn. It had everything. Action, adventure, witty humour, sword fights, romance, glorious technicolor, and Robin Hood was a true hero of the people and Lady Marian was a true lady. I've loved that film ever since I was like 7 years old. It's truly mind boggling just how much things have changed since then, and how we went from that Robin Hood to this Robyn Hood.

[@tanfosbery1153]

You are 100% correct. No other film so faithfully conveys Medieval England and the legend of Robin Hood

[@0giwan]

Lies. The Disney Robin Hood is the best out there, closely followed by Men in Tights. Fite me.

[@SusieQ3]

​@@0giwan Men in Tights is definitely my favorite.

[@wertygospiner2245]

it went from Robin Hood to Robin the Hood

[@Ascoyned]

Basil Rathbone and Errol Flynn duelling to the death is one of the greatest swordfights in cinema history!

[@jschap712]

The heroism of Robyn Hood becomes more apparent in the 2nd episode when 1) the cop who shot her mother is being investigated for his actions, 2) the developer apologies and offers to help the mother with her hospital bills if she stops encouraging people to break and enter his private home and trespassing in his building (after noting the paediatric ward he donated to her local hospital, just down the hall from her room), 3) the Sheriff has a heart to heart with Robyn about her own impoverished childhood and wanting to improve the neighbourhood and keep it safe, and how trespassing is illegal, 4) Robyn and her friends decide to steal money to use it to buy speakers and throw a big party with a bouncing castle, and 5) her adult IT friend with implants in his fingers offers her and her friends illegal drugs. The extent of Robyn's plight is also constantly reinforced by scenes of the rather nice appartments she and her friends live in (they'd be at a minimum $500/week rent where I live), and seeing all her nice clothes and phones and other toys shown off.

[@jamesforbes5616]

But she is 'B'lack, you see. It does not matter how nice her house is. She is oppressed. Hashtag BLM. -_-

[@AdamRhodes536]

I can't tell

[@alissa2228]

It's true. I hate it when show writer's have "poor" characters, yet their apartments are much better than what an average person would have, and their clothes are all from expensive brands. Most Hollywood directors have no idea how to make people look poor. They're either upper-middle class or homeless. They don't know how to do an inbetween.

[@mechadeka]

They got $500 apartments where you live? Oh wait, you said "week".

[@jacevicki]

@@mechadeka $500 a week, over $2k a month. That would be an okay apartment in a small Canadian city.

[@aaron57422]

The show was absolute comedy gold. Watching Director X argue with Disparu on twitter was classic. Hopefully the hero of the piece, John Prince, can go on to better roles, because he carries what little exists of the show on his back.

[@llcdrdndgrbd]

The sheriff is the hero

Rob in da Hood. 🤷‍♂️ And idiotic things like this keep getting made because the people who green light them are as dumb as the people writing/producing them. They are literally incapable of distinguishing between good and evil, so the best they can do is defecate randomly onto the page or screen and screech that anyone pointing this out is...something. Whatever the worst current thing is. 🤷‍♂️

I am Canadian, and I have never heard of this show, just to show you how popular it really is here. Clearly a huge hit!
