1	!!The 1938 film
2
3	* ''Film/TheMarkOfZorro1940'' has Creator/BasilRathbone and Eugene Pallette playing variations of Guy of Gisborne and Friar Tuck.
4	* In the WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes cartoon ''WesternAnimation/RabbitHood'' (1949), when WesternAnimation/BugsBunny assaults Little John, who has been announcing Robin's arrival throughout the cartoon, with a vehement "Well, where is he?" his question is answered with an actual clip from ''The Adventures of Robin Hood'' (Creator/ErrolFlynn received a personal copy of this short as compensation for the use of his image).
5	* The Creator/HowardHughes film ''Film/HisKindOfWoman'' (1951) has a FilmWithinAFilm that's a copy of Robin's duel with Guy, with Creator/VincentPrice of all people standing in for Flynn.
6	* The WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes short ''WesternAnimation/RobinHoodDaffy'' (1958) mocks both Robin's swinging on a vine ("Yoicks, and away!") and his overly jolly laughter after being trounced and dunked by an opponent.
7	* In the 1982 film ''Film/MyFavoriteYear'', Creator/ErrolFlynn [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed avatar]] Alan Swann (Peter O'Toole) stumbles drunkenly into a projection-room where one of his old films is playing: the actors dueling therein are costumed exactly like Robin and Sir Guy in ''The Adventures of Robin Hood''.
8	* According to Ben Burtt, the sounds of the laser blasters in ''Franchise/StarWars'' are modelled after the sounds of the arrow shots.
9	* In the ''[[Series/{{Alf}} ALFTales]]'' cartoon version of the Myth/RobinHood story (1988), the Merry Men spring off obvious trampolines during the attack on the treasure caravan (as they do in this film), and Gordon/Robin, painting a self-portrait, paints out what is obviously Errol Flynn's face and substitutes his own.
10	* Ash's duel with the head deadite in ''Film/ArmyOfDarkness'' {{homage}}s the shadows on the wall bit. It was also homaged in ''Film/HotShotsPartDeux''.
11	* The ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' episode "[[{{Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS4E20Qpid}} Qpid]]" (1991) is pretty much a WholePlotReference, down to a fight between Robin/Picard and Guy of Gisborne on a staircase--which makes Vash's absolute refusal to play Marian a whole lot funnier. (Oddly, though, someone somewhere seems to have gotten Guy of Gisbourne and the Sheriff confused, because Q is clearly playing Creator/BasilRathbone-Guy but calls himself the Sheriff, and Guy more resembles the dim-witted, rotund Melville-Cooper-Sheriff.)
12	* ''Film/RobinHoodMenInTights'' (1993) obviously takes a few shots, but most notable is Robin's grand entrance into Nottingham Castle's hall, with a deer taken from the King's forests draped over his shoulders (though Creator/MelBrooks switches it to a boar so that Robin can compare it with Prince John).
13	* In ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' episode "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS11E8TakeMyWifeSleaze Take My Wife, Sleaze]]", Homer's motorcycle sword fight with Meathook parodies the ending sword fight between Robin and Guy of Gisbourne.
14	* A fragment of one of the film's sword fighting scenes was converted to sprites by Jordan Mechner and used for ''VideoGame/PrinceOfPersia1''.
15	* ''Series/DoctorWho'':
16	** In "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS21E2TheAwakening The Awakening]]", the Fifth Doctor is asked if he speaks treason, to which he replies, "Fluently".
17	** In "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS34E3RobotOfSherwood Robot of Sherwood]]", the Twelfth Doctor claims (to the real Robin Hood) he was taught how to fence by the best, including Creator/ErrolFlynn.
18	* "Heroes", a story in the ''ComicBook/BatmanBlackAndWhite'' anthology series set in 1938, starts with a ten-year-old boy listing his heroes, which include Batman and specifically the Errol Flynn version of Robin Hood.
