Cinematic Saturdays – Robin Hood (animated)

“You don’t just walk up to a girl, hand her a bouquet and say, ‘Hey, remember me? We were kids together. Will you marry me?’ No, it just isn’t done that way.” ~Robin Hood

Disney’s Animated Robin Hood (1973)

I grew up watching this movie. It’s been a favorite for as long as I can remember. I haven’t seen it in years, but I can still quote it. And that theme song! I hear that and I’m instantly taken back to my childhood… 🙂 But — gosh! — I didn’t realize how old it is! It came out back in 1973– that makes it 42 years old!! 😯 Wow.
This is what I consider a must see movie so, if you haven’t seen it yet, you need to go watch it. (By the way, there’s a link at the bottom of the post where you can watch the entire movie on YouTube. Check it out!)
