If they'd done a version with Uma and Alan Rickman that would have been great.

Are you saying Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio was not a good maod marion? Or that Alan Rickman should have played Robin Hood?

Rickmans Sheriff would be a tragedy not to have. But Mary was a better actress for the role in PoT. Uma would have been completely miss cast for that script

Just trying to understand your vision

I liked Uma's Maid Marion and Rickman as the Sheriff.

I can see Rickman playing Robin as a harrassed executive, with Jack Black as an overly imaginative bard who comes up with the laughing and swaggering schtick.

If you want a really off the wall version, try 'Robin And Marion' with Sean Connery and Audrey Hepburn. I particularly enjoyed Connery and Robert Shaw having a rematch after their 'From Russia With Love' fight.
