Robin Hoodlum is a 1948 cartoon directed by John Hubley.It is an installment of the Columbia Cartoons series The Fox and the Crow. And you guessed it, it's a Robin Hood story. In this installment Fauntleroy Fox is a jaunty Robin Hood who robs from the rich to give to the poor, then robs from the poor to give back to the rich. ("I never do anything for the middle class.") Prince John appoints Chester Crow to the post of Sheriff of Nottingham after the Sheriff gets shot up by arrows, and Chester lures Robin to the palace with an archery tournament.First "Fox and the Crow" short made by UPA, and in fact the first ever theatrical short by UPA, which was taking over animation duties for Columbia from the defunct Screen Gems studio.Not to be confused with the trope of the same name. | |

Formula-Breaking Episode | |
| Robin Hoodlum / int_670db7d7 | comment |
Formula-Breaking Episode: The Fox and Crow formula always had Chester as the smarter one who got the better of poor Fauntleroy. In this the first UPA short, the fox comes out on top. Also, the fantasy setting was new to the Fox and Crow series. | |

World of Funny Animals | |
| Robin Hoodlum / int_8341ccb1 | comment |
World of Funny Animals: This is the only Fox and Crow cartoon with anthropomorphized animal characters other than Fauntleroy and Chester. Prince John is a pig, while the other incidental characters are dogs. | |
