How the hell did we end up with two robin hood movies in one year?
>>

AI most likely.

i heard they're both garbage

>script gets floated
>producers take a liking to it
>bid for rights
>producers that didn't win go take a look at the dusty stack of scripts that they own the rights to and look to either shoehorn a robin hood angle into it or discover they already have a robin hood script and tweak it to match what they liked about the one they bid on
>alternatively, they hire a team of writers to shit out a robin hood script but they think they can do it better

Only good thing about Robin Hood was Jodie Coomer showing nip at the premiere.

Wait until you learn the year 1998 had 2 erupting volcano movies and 2 asteroid towards Earth movies.
>>
>>223484914
There were two different Hercules movies in 2014
>>
>>223484914
Same reason an anti-Unabomber movie just came out. Billionaires are getting nervous so they need step up the propaganda
>>
There were 2 different Pinocchio movies just a couple years ago.

uprising feels like they slapped on the robin hood title at the last minute in marketing because they got cold feet and were scared nobody would watch it if it didn't have a recognisable name attached to it
when you watch the trailer there's literally nothing robin hood about it
>>

Also, it's a very trendy theme right now: average man stealing from the wealthy. And Hollywood loves an established IP. So it's not surprising multiple studios want Robin Hood. It's also been long enough since Ridley's flop. There's 'How to Rob a Bank' from our friends at Amazon Studios coming out soon too, which they're calling a 'modern-day Robin Hood '.

The movie literally ends with the Plowman guy and his band of outlaws (who survived the crackdown on the uprising) ambushing the King and his retinue on the road like Robin Hood. Plowman kills the king's advisor (the movies secondary villain) but lets the rest of them go. Movie ends with the king screaming in his castle.

>What if stealing from the rich was ... le bad
>>
>>223484914
Same way we got both these movies with the exact same plot in the same year
>>
>>223485211
Yeah this is exactly what I thought too. I saw the trailer and thought it was going to be a fun historical fiction movie, then I looked it up and saw "Robin Hood" on the posters and immediately lost interest.

>>223485315
That sounds fucking dogshit, the trailer makes it look so much better than it actually is lol
>>
>>223487345
I love the "has fallen" movies but white house down is infinity more watchable
>>
>>223484914
I liked Death. Haven't seen Uprising yet.

> they slapped on the robin hood title
but they didn't
> saw "Robin Hood" on the posters

It was Fake News.
