- Robin Hood opened to mixed reviews and an above-average box office gross.
- The comic book adaptation of the film was the first Disney comic to be printed by Marvel since the acquisition early in '73.
- After
Robin Hood was finished, Wolfgang Reitherman was fired and Walt appointed himself to direct the studio's next animated feature,
Beauty and the Beast.
