But unlike the story of Snow White, Lancelot's and (especially) Robin Hood's stories are so closely tied to England that I just can't fathom how they could be in this show. Think about the basic story of Robin Hood, if you try to take him out of England it doesn't work. You could have a thief who robs from the rich and gives to the poor, but he's not Robin Hood because Robin Hood was the lord of Locksley, ran around Sherwood Forrest, and before that fought in the Crusades with King Richard. That makes him very British. It's the same with Mulan: if you take her out of China, and it's no longer her story. It's just a random Asian girl who fought/dressed like a man.
