Robin Hood (1973) Family Movie Review | Nostalgic Disney Animation Classic | Ep. 112

from Movies at Grandma's House

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.t's one of Disney's most charming and beloved kids movies — Robin Hood (1973)! On this family movie review, Isaac and Seth are joined by guest Ajax (Aaron, co-host of Cover Wars Podcast) to bring real film analysis and honest movie reviews to this nostalgic, wholesome film — one of the true classic youth movies and children's films among Disney's animated classics — to ask: does this swashbuckling adventure still hit the bullseye, or has it missed the mark after all these years?They dig into the film's unique all-animal cast, the surprisingly reused animation from The Jungle Book and The Aristocats, and a soundtrack — including the iconic "Oo-De-Lally" and the hauntingly beautiful "Not in Nottingham" — that both hosts agree is the film's strongest asset. Plus a little classic movie analysis on why this overlooked entry gets left out of the conversation compared to Disney's more famous animated eras.Fun facts you'll want to share: this was the first VHS ever released in the Walt Disney Classics line. Despite its British setting, only about half a dozen of the voice cast were actually English. And it was the first Walt Disney Animation Studios film not personally greenlit by Walt Disney himself.Plus a true-or-false trivia question about Disney's very first Robin Hood movie, a look at real online reviews (ranging from "Disney's most underrated film" to a blunt two-out-of-ten), the Kid Test across all four of Isaac's kids, and a rare three-way split decision on the final rating — driven largely by how much nostalgia each host brings to the table.Granny's official family friendly rating: B for animated violence, adult themes, and crude humor.This episode also features guest Ajax (Aaron), co-host of Cover Wars Podcast — find them on YouTube and TikTok for weekly deep-dives crowning the best cover songs around.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 – Intro: A Nostalgic Family Movie Review Begins 1:21 – Meet the Hosts & Special Guest Ajax 2:28 – Movie Reveal: Robin Hood (1973) 3:04 – Big Poppin' Shoutout & Film Facts 4:31 – Granny's Family-Friendly Rating 7:47 – First Memories & Nostalgia 12:41 – Plot Rewind: Full Film Analysis Begins 14:41 – Kids Movies Character Breakdown 23:10 – Sir Hiss: The Fan-Favorite Villain 33:27 – Favorite Quotes & Scenes 36:05 – Fun Facts Behind This Family Movie 38:09 – Trivia: Was This Disney's Second Robin Hood? 40:11 – What Other Movie Reviews Are Saying 44:41 – The Kid Test & Our Official Ratings 50:56 – Guest Shoutout: Cover Wars Podcast 52:49 – Outro & Where to Find UsWe've also partnered with Big Poppin' LLC for our own custom flavor — "Grandma's Punch-Aid"!
