* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5q6U1cK3aU trailer's]] alternate version of the sentient arrow gag: rather than being part of an archery contest, it flies through the forrest, swerves around trees, ''breaks'' at a fork while deciding which way to go and then flies directly into the tree ''just above'' where the target is... splitting the ''tree'' in half. Cut to Robin, looking on with a ''really'' awkward smile as he turns, {{facepalm}}s and walks away.
