What happened to that dude who thinks he's a chick? Seemed like all the fruitcups really wanted him to be Zelda.

Agreed, but optimistic with Nintendo being involved.

It's amazing the dumb shite some of you post, thinking it's clever commentary. I suppose Mario was a simp, too, while Bowzer was plowing Princess Peach from castle to castle. Hello, it's a video game.

the scoop that the character of Zelda was going to be a trans *chick* proved to be false.


Thank god, but can I say something... Hunter Schafer really did look like Princess Zelda.

I don't know. I think it would be easier to pull off if it was animated, but the ceiling on a properly done live action Zelda movie is pretty high, IMHO.

Feel like this is going to be the next massive franchise that’ll start off strong and then they’ll run into the ground with countless spinoffs eventually. But I’d have to imagine the first 2-3 movies are going to PRINT money and hit it out of the park. Goldeneye and Ocarina of Time are the GOATs of the 90s.

Hopefully they’re going into this planning it as a trilogy. The LoZ world is way too big to try to cram that much into one movie and do it justice.

Probably would have been best suited for a multi-season TV series to be able to get enough depth to the story and various regions and races of Hyrule…especially for viewers who aren’t gamers and aren’t real familiar with the source material.

Agreed, but I'd love to see how they would tackle Majora's Mask or Wind Waker.

Who will play Beedle? Would be hilarious if someone like Joe Mangienello was cast

Zelda is one of those properties that has major franchise potential. I have to assume they're doing everything they can to make that happen. Nintendo handling it should keep the focus on promoting the franchise and not external social factors.


Agreed. It can both great story telling wise be visually stunning. I think they nailed the casting. Be interesting to see the production and costuming does. If they can nail the sets and visuals, we could be looking at our next big franchise.

A Link to the Past , Wind Waker, and Twilight Princess feel like the most film-friendly of the series

I mean, canonically, they’ve never been romantically involved with each other in any explicitly stated way.

Yeah i looked up their ages to see what they were going to go for timeline wise because their ages vary in so many games. Was a little surprised lol. But yeah they’re definitely not going the romantic route in any way. At least for now.
