I wish they would release a Blu-ray of the theatrical version. The Extended version was poorly edited and made no sense in some scenes.
1. In the meeting where the barons and the sheriff are dividing up the UK, in the original script the celtic chief chops off one of the barons head. I am not sure if this was ever filmed but you clearly see the Celtic chief laughing in one scene and then it switches to the table and you see blood everywhere? Makes no sense.
2. The sheriffs scribe had his tongue cut out but near the end of the film, Robin asks him where Marian is and he says "that way"???
3. The witch was clearly established that she was a fake in the extended version but at the end she touches Marian's stomach and says "she is ripe, she will give us a son"???
The extended cut was a completely different story to the theatrical and more care should have been taken to blend the 2 versions, but obviously the editor couldn't be bothered.
