Does anybody know what the proper aspect ratio is for this movie?
I purchased the original release some years ago and the transfer on that disc wasn't much wider than 1.78:1. It seemed as though it was much wider than that in the theater.

All I ask is that, either on Costner's Robin Hood: Prince of Tides SE or Flynn's The Adventures of Robin Hood SE, that the Daffy Duck "Robin Hood" cartoon be included as an extra.

Costner's "Robin Hood" film is a namby-pamby, politically correct, and sickeningly treacly abomination. Much like Barbara Streisand!

I'm also a fan of the BBC Robin of Sherwood series.

I got the old one. Couldnt believe it was a flipper. My first flipper when I got it. I was so dissapointed in the medium at the time, I mean it was brand new and they couldnt even fit an entire movie on one side. thank god for dual layer. Id replace it for this reason alone.

I got the barebones version from Buy, Bid, Win (anyone else remember them???) for $4.99, so I don't mind too much doing the double dip on this one even if I just give my old copy away.

Not one of the greatest movies ever made ....
But
I enjoyed it a lot watching it when I recieved the VHS as a gift so 20 dollars and tax is worth it for some sentimental value.
