It's two in the morning and I'm watching Disney's Robin Hood. Two observations:

  1. This movie is a lot better in the undubbed version. (Fellow Belgians will understand this--the Dutch version is terrible.) The jokes actually make sense!
  2. Last time I watched this movie was when I was home over Christmas, with my brothers, while rather drunk and slightly high. It was the first time I'd seen it since childhood (my brother and I could still say the lines right along with the tape), and I remember suddenly seeing smut everywhere. I blamed the alcohol and the pot. It ... wasn't the alcohol or the pot. Seriously, this movie is so the reason for furries.

    Robin Hood in that is weirdly cute. I HATE MYSELF.

    That movie is responsible for entire GENERATIONS of children growing up completely warped, let me tell you what. Because he IS!

    I still have the double LP of the radio play version (pretty much movie soundtrack with storyteller voiceover). Ooh-de-la-lay!

    I've listened to that again and again since I was five. It means nothing.

    In German or in English? (Is the German dubbed version as bad as the Dutch one?)

    Dude, I know. And the thing that really cracks me up is that Robin (and everyone else) isn't presented in the usual (American) totally sexless funny animal way, but like a regular Prince Charming figure. Someone the young kid watching is supposed to want to fall in love and run away with. And that cracks my shit up.

    In german. And I don't know, I would need to see the english version. I know they have put a lot of effort in the german dub, but I'm not sure how well it worked.

    From: [identity profile] bubosquared.livejournal.com


    Huh. The Dutch version is abysmal, and they basically haven't redone the dubbing at all since the original version. (The whole Dutch vs Flemish thing doesn't help, of course.) They basically didn't bother to even try and translate half of the jokes, the songs don't rhyme, ...

    I ... I'm slashing Prince John/Robin Hood. "It's Robin Hood I want!" UST PEOPLE! save me omg

    Someone on JF, I think, has an icon of the scene where Robin's in chains, with the caption "OMG furry bondage!" SO TRUE!

    Its true though, Robin Hood in that movie is a hot fox!

    GENERATIONS of children have been warped! Where's Fred Phelps when you need him, huh?

    From: [identity profile] dzayde.livejournal.com


    Its scary how Disney does that... even Tramp was hot.

    *crackus up* OMG, so true!

    No help for YOU!

    (PeeEss, write the RH/LJ thing. I DARE YOU)

    From: [identity profile] bubosquared.livejournal.com


    Not Little John, Prince John. Which is SO WRONG!

    (Crossovers. Happening. In. Head. Helpmespock!)

    From: [identity profile] ruby-fruit.livejournal.com


    ...EVEN BETTER. Do it!

    (*does Vulcan finger thing* No help for you. Is not logical, dude.)

    From: [identity profile] bubosquared.livejournal.com


    NO! SAD, BAD, SICK AND WRONG! (Also, "Little" John, hehehehe, so many jokes, so little time ...)

    (I'm furryfying Firefly! Fandom at large is about to come and BEAT MY HEAD IN with a large wooden spoon!)

    They got Reinhard Mey for the music and the Allan A'Dale role (a famous german balladeer, don't know if you ever heard about him, he's pretty abysmal now, but he was rather good back then and definitely up to the task.) I've checked the imdb quotes page to get an impression of the english version and I think they came up with adequate replacement jokes when direct translations were impossible. Still, I want to see the english version now.

    From: [identity profile] ruby-fruit.livejournal.com


    And this has stoped you before....when? (He he he. Aw, poor Little John. Hee.)

    (So? It'll amuse me! Badger could be that wolf sheriff, the useless one. Sheriff of Nottingham!)

    Any other version of Robin Hood, I'm be all over that. This one, I'm trying to figure out logistics of lion/fox sex. Or worse, lion/bear--at least in the movie, Robin and Prince John are vaguely the same size.

    (Mal is Robin! Inara is Marian! Kaylee can be Lady Kluk, and um. I don't know who Simon and River would be. Book is obviously Friar Tuck. Um. I'm out of ideas.)

    (WAIT! Obviously, Simon is Skippy the bunny and River is Sis, the other bunny. BWAHAHAHAHA!)

    From: [identity profile] ruby-fruit.livejournal.com


    That's true. But hey, PJ is a kinda runty lion. But then there are still spiney-penis issues to work out. (if the Discovery Chanel has taught me anything it's that animal sex is disturbing and painful sounding)

    (AHAHAHAHAHA! That is THE MOST PERFECT THING EVER. *wishes to pick up wee!bunny!Simon and hug him and squeeze him and call him george*)

    From: [identity profile] bubosquared.livejournal.com


    Apparently, the bigger the feline, the less actually barby the penis. So lion penises are probably more ribbed for your pleasure.

    ... This is an entirely disturbing conversation.

    (If I had any actual talent at all I'd be fanarting this like WHOA!)

    From: [identity profile] ruby-fruit.livejournal.com


    *snorfs* Am now picturing Trojan ads for lions. Hee.

    ...Yes. Yes it is. But probably not the most disturbing one we've ever had. Which is even more disturbing.

    (I didn't hear that.)

    We really shouldn't be allowed to talk anymore, should we? One of these days we're going to turn into the text equivalent of things like goatse and tubgirl.

    (You know, considering that my least sucky art has involved antropomorphic mice, maybe I should just try my hand anyway ...)

    From: [identity profile] ruby-fruit.livejournal.com


    No, probably not. But, um. That whoosh you heard was your references going over my head. Huh?

    (Do eeet! I am!(actually, I'm resisting the urge to make JAYNE into a bunny))

    From: [identity profile] bubosquared.livejournal.com


    You know what, if you've managed to avoid goatse and tubgirl so far, you really don't want to see them. Really.

    (OMG*DIES* He can be the wee baby bunny! The one who's always going "Guys, wait up!")
