It's true all right. But what about this?

The Disney movie Robin Hood was always planned to have all the characters depicted as animals.

False. Disney did have a live-action Robin Hood made previously before the animated one.

The answer is indeed false as pooh says although the context of my statement has been slightly misconstrued. I meant to say that the animated movie was always planned with animals. I'm afraid I did not specify this because I was not aware of the previous live-action movie.:embarrassed:

Anyway the reason why my statement is false is because I remember watching the special features on my friend's Disney DVD and seeing a couple of rare early animation stills of standard human characters which were abandoned when the decision was agreed upon to cast them as all different kinds of animals instead.

So you're next pooh.
