Robin Hood, or Robin of Loxley Cary Elwes, is captured during the Crusades and is imprisoned at Khalil Prison in Jerusalem. With the help of fellow inmate Asneeze Isaac Hayes, who is in for jaywalking, he escapes and frees the other inmates. Robin is asked by Asneeze to find his son, Ahchoo Dave Chappelle, in his first major professional role. Upon returning to England, he finds Ahchoo and discovers that Prince John Richard Lewis has assumed control while King Richard is away fighting in the Crusades. Unbeknownst to Richard, the prince is abusing his power. Robin returns to his family home, Loxley Hall, only to find it has been repossessed by Johns men. His familys blind servant, Blinkin Mark Blankfield, informs Robin that his family members and pets have been killed as well. He vows to get his home back before all his familys things are taken.Robin recruits the large and ignorant Little John Eric Allan Kramer, and his friend Will Scarlet OHara Matthew Porretta, to help regain his fathers land and oust Prince John from the throne. On his quest, Robin also attracts the attention of Maid Marian Amy Yasbeck, who wants to find the man who has the key to her heart and Everlast chastity belt. They are also joined by Rabbi Tuckman Mel Brooks, who shares with them his sacramental wine. While Robin is training his band of tightsclad Merry Men, the spoonerismspouting Sheriff of Rottingham Roger Rees, hires the Mafioso Don Giovanni Dom DeLuise to assassinate Robin at the Spring Festival with archery tournament, spoofing a similarly outlandish plot twist from the Costner movie involving Scottish mercenaries. Maid Marian hears of the evil plot, and sneaks out of her castle to warn Robin, accompanied by her frumpy German LadyinWaiting Broomhilde Megan Cavanagh. The Sheriff and Don expect that Robin will not refuse a chance to participate in the tournament due to his pride, and Robin does as they expect. ........
