    • Trivia
      The shot of the guards falling down in a row took several weeks to prepare.
    • Goofs
      During the "Men in Tights" song and dance number at the lyrics: '...We roam around the forest looking for fights...', Dave Chappelle (Ahchoo) makes a minor mistake in choreography by raising his right-hand to his forehead instead of his left-hand, and then makes a quick switch to correct his mistake.
    • Quotes

      Robin Hood: As my first order of business, I would like to appoint a new Sheriff... my friend Ahchoo.

      Crowd: A black sheriff?

      Blinkin: He's black?

      Ahchoo: And why not? It worked in Blazing Saddles.

    • Crazy credits
      The opening credits appear after shooting fire arrows. At the end of the credits the arrows are flying into village houses and setting them on fire.

    Excellently funny!
    This is a funny film and I like it a lot. Cary Elwes plays Robin Hood to a tee. This is, of course, the usual good vs evil with Robin against the evil Sheriff of Nottingham. The humor is sort of in your face stuff for the most part, but still works well. A comedy for a night when you don't want to have to think much, it's well worth a rent!
