Plays from Sheriff's forced marriage proposal to Sheriff telling Marian Robin is Dead, to Robin's survival.
Besides the lengthy "Marriage Plans / Robin's Alive", still missing are the film version of "Wild Times" and another "Medieval Dance" source cue from the camp's festivities. Instead we now have four versions of an unused source track which seems more fitted to castle festivities than to those of a band of outlaws. Interesting. There seems to be missing a short alternate insert for the moment when Robin crashes through the window during the finale. At least I don't seem to be able to figure out where that short bit might have been tracked from.
Now back in stock I have received my copy, but the booklet is missing pages 11 to 22!
I have emailed Intrada about it but thought I would mention it in case anyone else has or does receive it recently to check theirs. Hopefully mine is just an isolated incident.
I don’t read the guardian anymore but the film is quite entertaining. It is very firmly planted in the adult contemporary sector of the 1990s, Costner is very full of himself as a leading man which dates it, and Morgan Freeman as the laid-back all-knowing sidekick is a bit tired. Alan Rickman is great but I think people are spoiled now by grandiose sneering villains so his performance doesn’t seem as fresh as it did back then (Marvel has copied that self-reflexive performance style into nothingness).
The film is also visually quite dark, which robs it (hehe) of a lightness and Costner’s accent is terrible.
All that said, the music is very lighthearted and exciting, the cinematography is very captivating and the overall structure and story development is quite light-hearted. Arrow-cam is still cool and Sean Connery’s cameo is welcome.
Honestly I think the weakest link is Costner but overall the film is still fun. Just skip Bryan Adams’ adult contemporary version of the orchestral music and you’re good!
