Trivia: When Robin Hood and all of the villagers are having the party and singing and dancing, look closely at the dance, it's from Snow White. Some of the villagers are the dwarfs and Maid Marion is Snow White. Also, when Little John is dancing it's from The Jungle Book.
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: 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.
Answer: Just like Robin Hood, he would have likely given them to the poor who could have sold the hubcaps themselves.
