I don't understand why the critics dislike Robin Hood so much. That one was also one of my favorites.

I pray to God that they don't make a Robin Hood 2.

The only part of Robin Hood I didn't like was that obnoxious rooster and his whistling.

Yeah, that one's definitely in my top number too. I remember the time we watched it in my eighth grade history class, for some totally forgotten reason (although I had already watched it hundreds of times before). We started around the 9th or 10th of September, and on the 11th, they told us about the planes right at the beginning of class, and we convinced the teacher to let us keep watching the movie instead of taking the test we were supposed to take that day. After school I got a tetanus shot.

The tape we had of it (at home, not at school) was one of the bunches of movies my mom had recorded off of a local ABC channel back in the late 80s and early 90s, so part of the reason I liked watching it so much was all the old commercials. Remember Tornado Rex? Yeah, that was pretty cool. There was a pretty long time, from about 1993 to about 1997 (it seemed longer because I was between the ages of 3 and 7), where we had a TV but didn't get any reception from anything, so we just watched VHSs all day. So yeah, those movies and their commercials have a pretty special place in my heart.

And I kinda like the whistling.

Looking back at Robin Hood, something about it seems off, but I didn't care back then just because of all the animals. Most of all I liked Prince John (especially his laugh, AH-haaaa) and Sir Hiss.
Plus, Pat Buttram's voice is recognizable anywhere. I had newfound respect for him when I saw him in "Green Acres" as Mr. Haney with the same voice and coming up with outrageous things to sell, mostly because he was even funnier in that show.

I like Lion King 2 a lot, even though I gloss over a lot of it like a couple of the horrible songs, Nuka, and how overprotective Simba is. I just watch it for Kovu and the two songs "We Are One" and "Love Will Find a Way".

Answer to how you can make a sequel to a true story: you can't, unless there was some other amazing true story to come later. They just invented new storylines for Balto and company. And I hated both of them. Balto 2 at least looked gorgeous and I really like how Aleu looks, but I couldn't get into the spiritual storyline. Balto 3 I wish I could forget, seemed very generic, and Stella definitely brought down the film even further. So although Balto 2 botched its storyline, at least it was more daring. Balto coming to grips with airplanes being the new mode of transportation wasn't anywhere as dramatic as I thought it would be.
I seem to remember people were making a big deal out of Sam from LotR being the voice of Kodi though. Mm, okay job I guess.

By the way, Bobby in "A Goofy Movie" was voiced by Pauly Shore. I guess as long as he's a voiceover, he doesn't grate as much. Honestly it's been so long that I don't even remember what this weasel or weaze thing is anymore. The only thing about Bobby I remember is "the leaning tower of cheese-a".
You didn't say wot wot.

Kovu has the same voice as Max from Goofy Movie and Tino from the Weekenders and Rosh Penin from Jedi Academy and Nelson from Full House and Young Burt Ward in Adam & Burt: Back to the Batcave. Also, the main character on Beck sounds kind of like him in the English dub, but I don't think it's him. Also, he's the voice they should have had for Lloyd in TOS:DOTNW since they couldn't get the awesome original guy back. But they didn't, and instead they went with a guy who not only doesn't sound anything like the original guy but doesn't even sound interesting on his own. For the guy who's pretty much the whole point of the plot, at least for the first 80% or so, they really should have put more effort in.

He's also the voice of the.. River God in Spirited Away. Haku, maybe?
Kinopio is the ultimate video game character! Who else can drive a kart, host parties, play tennis, give good advice and items, and is almost always happy??

Well, perhaps I phrased it wrong.  I didn't like the whistling.  The voice and character were good.

There's no need to explain. If you don't like him, that's your opinion.

I kinda enjoyed his whistling, actually. I dunno, maybe it's because I envy him. I can't whistle.  :P

I can whistle pretty decently, but barely a full octave.
