The Costner movie not only used a Saracen character (apparently thinking the Saracen was one of the traditional Robin Hood characters along with Little John, Will Scarlet etc) after watching RoS, but they used many of the same locations and even used the same horsemaster. And, of course, Alan Rickman's scenery-chewing pantomime sherriff (which totally rescued the whole movie for me) was very much based on Nicholas Grace who was so good in RoS, always bitching with the equally convincing Abbot Hugo (Philip Jackson.)
