Welcome to another episode of Mental Health Multiverse: A podcast where we mindfully break down your pop culture favs and discuss them through the lens of self care, mental health, and personal development.
This week on MHM we are talking about Prince John from the 1973 Disney animated film, 'Robin Hood.' We delved into the themes of the movie, childhood crushes on animated characters, and the juxtaposition of Robin Hood's altruism against Prince John's greed. We also evaluated Prince John's motivations, his relationship dynamics, and his coping mechanisms while also debating the implications of fat shaming within the context of the film.
With references to various Robin Hood adaptations and their cultural impact, HB & LB take a closer look at the film's portrayal of wealth disparity and political power. They conclude by positioning Prince John as one of the weaker villains discussed in their podcast series.
Questions, themes, and topics we touch on include:
