I was a lifeguard for 3 years and a few of my "saves" were literally telling the kid to stand up. I can fully understand robin's look of confusion and disappointment.

Best Robin Hood ever. Because... unlike other Robins, he speaks with English accent!

[Bernie]

The funniest thing is at the end of that scene when they are introducing themselves: "I'm Little John ... but don't let my name fool you - I'm actually quite big!"

[ATK]

Man, you can just tell Cary Elwes is having the time of his life in this role

[lylegardner]

"Wait a minute, you changed your name TO Latrine?"
"Yeah, it used to be Shithouse."
"Good change, that's a good change."

[TheDabblinMan]

I love how the music gets higher in pitch as their sticks get smaller. You know the composer was having a laugh with this scene too

[BeazleyStudios]

Such a great movie. Mel Brooks nailed this parody, one of his best. Cary Elwes made a terrific Erol Flynn parody

[garykass]

"Help me! I can't swim!" says Little John in half an inch of water. Classic!!

[schwarzerritter]

I like how the battle music gets faster every time they break the sticks.

[antontonable]

This is one of the greatest movies ever made.

"A toll is a toll and a roll is a roll. And if we don't no tolls then we don't eat no rolls. I made that up myself." Little John's line when Robin first pulls up

The best part is what Cary's face starts to do right at 1:33 you can see he's just *barely* holding it together and is a breath away from falling out with laughter.

[jimlane]

This film has aged amazingly well. I think it's actually funnier now than when I saw it almost 30 years ago 😊

[Daynoxst]

We saw this in the theater... I have never heard a full theater laugh so loud at a movie before or since. The best Robin Hood.

"This ain't exactly the Mississippi" Before America was discovered.

My dad loves this movie, he’d always tell me to watch it and I would always laugh at him and tell him he has the worst sense of humour ever, but this is actually a very funny movie. RIP dad.

[Dayvit]

2nd best bridge fight scene in cinematic history. Don't try to argue.

[Itchyknee]

This is easily one of the greatest fight scenes ever 😂

[stonedhomer]

Oh man I thought he was seriously going to drown, man Mr. Brooks sure is a master of suspense.

[CarolHardesty]

I love how the music changes as their sticks get smaller. :D
