Third and supposedly final trailer for Robin Hood, starring Taron Egerton and Jamie Foxx.

A war-hardened Crusader and his Moorish commander mount an audacious revolt against the corrupt English crown in a thrilling action-adventure packed with gritty battlefield exploits, mind-blowing fight choreography, and a timeless romance.

If you ever doubted that a half-mask can protect your identity, even from people who have know you, this trailer for Robin Hood has a bit of fun with that.

This latest installment of Robin Hood comes 110 years after the first feature film, Robin Hood and His Merry Men.

While filming in croatie, Jamie Foxx had a minor racist incident when out eating one night. The restaurant owner threw the offenders out, and they were put in jail. Even with this negative moment, Foxx still praises the country for its people. I can attest. Having been to Croatia twice, one of the best compliments I can give is just how nice the people are.

So, I badly want this movie to be good. Just like I badly wanted Guy Ritchie's King Arthur to be good. And we all know how that went, right?

The only catch is that I thought King Arthur, just from the trailers, looked slightly better than Robin Hood does. So another bad sign. Even the villain soldiers look the same. Sigh.

But, other than that, the action does look like a lot of and the film is definitely taking a more fun angle to the story. But, I wouldn't put my money on it being anything worthy of a theatrical visit just yet. I can't believe I'm saying this, but early twitter reports are going to be needed before committing to that decision.
