Corrected entry: Robin Hood and Little John steal all of Prince John's gold by tying bags of it to a constantly moving rope that runs between the bedroom and the jail. The problem is, when Little John shot one end of the rope into the bedroom on an arrow, the arrow just stuck into the wall. The rope wasn't looped around anything, so it shouldn't be able to move.
Robin Hood (1973)

Directed by: Wolfgang Reitherman
Starring: Peter Ustinov, Terry-Thomas, Phil Harris, Brian Bedford, Roger Miller
Genres: Adventure, Animated, Disney, Family, Musical, Romance
Continuity mistake: When Robin Hood and Little John are fortune tellers and Robin kisses Prince John's hand. Robin takes the whole ring but in the next scene there is a ring on his finger with no stone in it. It is on his right hand. (00:12:55)
Marian: Oh, Robin, you're so brave and impetuous.
Trivia: The characters of Prince John and King Richard are based on real people. Their mother, Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine, really did prefer Richard over John and all her other children (although John didn't really lapse into fits of whining and sucking his thumb.) John eventually became king after Richard's death.
Question: Why did little John like the fact that the hubcaps were made of gold? I thought he wasn't greedy like Prince John.
Answer: Just like Robin Hood, he would have likely given them to the poor who could have sold the hubcaps themselves.
Answer: He's not. Just like Robin Hood, he's robbing the rich to give to the poor. Since Prince John is so wealthy, Little John takes whatever he can get from the coach to help the oppressed people.
But what would he have done with the golden hubcaps? Sell them to make more money to feed the poor?
Just like Robin Hood, he would have given them to the poor who could have sold the hubcaps themselves.
Correction: Before he gets up there the clock strikes three. When he's almost done the clock strikes four. Even though he had to climb up there he could easily had time to loop the rope around something to make it movable.
