Disney animation
Disney
Disney released the popular animated Robin Hood in 1973 with all the characters turned into animals. Our hero was transformed into a furry fox, Alan a-dale was a singing cockerel and the Sheriff’s men were sinister vultures. The tagline was 'Meet Robin Hood and his MERRY MENagerie!'
Given a small budget, footage was referenced to other Disney films at the time, including Snow White and The Jungle Book.
Some of the voices and characters may be familiar. Peter Ustinov grew famous playing over-the-top villains and his campy, spoiled, and thoroughly weak-willed portrayal of Prince John is an effective caricature. And Phil Harris's voice as Little John is virtually identical to the voice he used for the character Baloo in Disney's The Jungle Book.
