And now they need a few years in the special effects department to apply the classical 8bit charm.
I just hope there's as much dancing as Link did in the 90s
(to get that url I had to click on "copy link")
I wonder if Link will speak or not.
I'd like it if every time he starts to speak Navi yells LISTEN!
ngl, I’d lose it if his only line is a well-placed “well, eXcUsE mE, PrInCeSs!”
EDIT: I see that I am far from the only person to make this joke. Please accept my apologies for my lack of originality. For penance I shall spend an hour walking among ReDeads but not battling them.
i would like to present to you the concept of parallel development. you were just as original as everyone else who has the same thought that developed into the same shape. it's the brainworm version of carcinization
I really hope Link is going to break some pots.
Scene: storeroom, deep beneath Hyrule castle.
Link: bumps into a ceramic pot, knocking it to the floor, shattering everywhere. Mixed in with the shards of pottery are several rupies.
Zelda: look of shock at what Link did.
Link: looks at pot, scared, then slowly looks up to Zelda.
Zelda: her gaze changes to a mischievous ear-to-ear grin.
Scene: pottery breaking music montage - everything in the storeroom is laid to waste.
wait wait link gets really high and scene cut to a bunch of pottery breaking sounds
Wtf is this absolutely cursed image.
i dunno the dog looks high to me when you give him a beard
People seem to be confused about why they thought this is a good idea, but to me this is expected.
I don't follow what Miyamoto does much, but based on what I heard (like Chris Pratt Mario...) I feel he's a showoff who probably wants ANY live-action movie of a Nintendo IP because it'd be cool. Zelda is the best one to qualify, maybe Metroid or Xenoblade (both of which are way less popular). They even tried more realism back with Twilight Princess.
I actually expect it'll be more or less like the Mario movie again, an unimpressive but solid success.
He already got that decades ago tho...
He (or anyone from the Japan branch, I think) didn't have anything to do with the last one, so it didn't matter. It's only recently that he started getting interested.
I would love a Metroid film, but one that takes its cues from Moon where Samus is basically alone, but she has some kind of JARVIS-like companion with which to speak. Just big, abandoned spaces, punctuated by action set pieces.
This is so stupid. Why make this?
this is so stupid
Open to interpretation, you’re neither right or wrong I suppose. I don’t agree.
why make this
Because Nintendo are starting to do movies.
I'm expecting a mediocre movie that's an enjoyable watch, but ultimately forgettable. Same as the Mario movies.
I'm expecting Zelda will play just as large of a role in the film as Link.
Same as the Mario movies.
I assume you're not including SMB93 in this, because NO ONE can forget that masterpiece.
Oh for fucks sake, they made Zelda a girl. Tired of this gender swapping woke shit. /s
