Inspired by the popular online game that asks people to choose one movie from a group of four, One Choice… is pretty much the same game. Readers will be given four similar movies and asked to choose one. Now here’s the catch, the other three movies will be gone forever, wiped from your brain as if they never existed. Are you ready to theoretically live in a world where you have The Empire Strikes Back but not Star Wars or Return of the Jedi? What about the 1989 Batman movie but not Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight? The choice is yours, screenager, so choose wisely.
You know the drill by now. Here are four Robin Hood adaptations. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to save one movie, leaving the other three to be erased from existence. Easier said than done, right? Good luck.
Here are the four Robin Hood movies:
The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938)
Cast: Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland, and Basil Rathbone

So, will it be The Adventures of Robin Hood, Robin Hood (1973), Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, or Robin Hood (2010)? It’s time to choose. What will be your One Choice?
