Going Rogue

Robin Hood

Going Rogue

Show Notes

Nottingham was a high concept spec script that reimagined the Robin Hood legend from the perspective of the Sheriff of Nottingham that asked whether we should follow the law, or our heroes. Robin Hood is a movie where Robin Hood does not rob from the rich or give to the poor, but his dad did write the Magna Carta.

This is the story of how Nottingham became Robin Hood.

Endings are tough. But they tell us a lot about what a storyteller, or a company, values.

Without the edit, there is no film. Without Marcia Lucas, there is no Star Wars.

Star Wars Episode IX is often dismissed as a film made by committee, but with its constant on-set rewrites, loose improvisational style and hyperactive camera movement, it’s very much a J.J. Abrams film.

It is a truth, universally acknowledged, that any criticism of J.J. Abrams’ work must discuss the Mystery Box. Check out Jon McCoy’s Episode IX Visual Sketchbook - it’s really fuckin cool! Also while you’re at it, Phil Saunders has also shared a heap of his work on the film with explanations of the process AND exact dates that really helped me piece together the timeline on this one.
