Nonsensical class politics, machine gun bows, and plot contrivances, oh my! Shaun Duke, Becca Evans, and Alex Acks join forces to tackle Robin Hood (2018). This particular film is all Becca’s fault. She chose it. She made us and some of our Patreon supporters watch it (possibly against their will). And now here we are discussing it. Together, we tackle the film’s weird anachronisms, what it’s like for a horse to get shot in the butt, bad geography, and so much more.

Thanks for listening. We hope you enjoy the episode!

Show Notes:
