PERVERT!

According to a website I found, criminitly is a perversion of the word 'criminy'. Criminy is a minced oath which is what you say when you can't really say bad words. Criminy supposedly meant Christ.

A old saying used to express surprise or shock. As used by 'The Honorable Sheriff of Nottingham" in the Walt Disney Film "Robin Hood". Pronounced "crime-a-netly".

Then Disney's Robin Hood is perverted! That's where I first heard it!

Disney's Robin Hood was a good movie!

One of my favorites!! "Robin Hood and Little John walkin' through the forest.."

I don't know how to embed it so you can see the preview, but this is the opening scene from the movie, along with the song.

That brings back a lot of memories!

Never saw that movie - I've never been a big fan of animation

Doesn't it? Thank you for inviting the video. That song always puts a big smile on my face.

Not even as a kid? Did you see Cinderella? Or Snow White? All of those early Disney movies hold a special place in my heart.

Squid · July 19, 2019, 11:11:34 AM

Never saw the Robin Hood movie. I probably saw the Snow White Movie but don't remember it. I've never seen the Cinderella movie but remember seeing snippets of it in documentaries, etc. I wasn't crazy about Avatar. The claymation movies are sometimes ok but they're too much like animation for me to get really excited. I've never seen Fantasia in its entirety. Yep, not really a fan of animation. Do you still love me?

I can't say I've seen too many of the classics, but I have basically watched everything that Pixar has released.

My mom is a big fan of the animated stuff, so I try and take her to see them all on the big screen.

As a kid I saw them all, then when I had my own kids they saw them all, and the new ones, too.

You're a wonderful son, Ken. To think of your mom that way!

I don't have any kids, so there is pretty big gap between me watching some when I was young, and now going with mom and watching the new stuff in the theaters.

The biggest surprise I had watching them is how much adult humor is thrown in to them. I'm all about action movies, so I didn't expect to enjoy the animated stuff as much as I did. Sometimes I think the parents are enjoying the movie more than the kids are ...

And I think that's part of the plan. Get the parents interested and entertained and they're more likely to bring the kids.

I totally agree. The animation I have seen does slip in things that I didn't understand as a kid. That part is fun.

Yeah, and that's why they make so much money off them.
