You're actually describing the opposite. The main focus is a man's exploit's yet the franchise is named after a woman who accomplishes a fraction of what he does.

I once had a dream I was watching a Zelda movie in theaters that had Marin and a Mermaid in it. My dream self thought it was the greatest movie in history. I would personally prefer Ocarina of Time though.
Ocarina would be too dark, the ruins of castle town would make the children sad and the MPAA would make it PG13. They'll do LTTP. An animated film based on the old LTTP manga coulda actually been cool but of course the film industry is allergic to anything resembling quality.
Ocarina is the earliest 'mythos' story to copy where you can do scenes like
>Opening scene is POV fairy flying through desert city festival at night >Fairy perches near two disguised women-warriors >Impa + apprentice dispatched to clandestine assassinate prophesied birth of Gerudo male >Sudden chaos and screaming >"Soemthing terrible is happening" >The assassins turn around to face adult Gerudo male
>It ends up being OOT >Live action Dead hand >movie suddenly change from family friendly to dark fantasy ultra horror midway
I would cream myself in the theater
>Ocarina would be too dark >do LTTP
This makes no sense. The only game that is slightly darker than ALttP is MM. Both are by far the darkest two entries in the series. OoT is a lot more tame.
Ocarina is the obvious answer because it's the most cinematic zelda with the best combination of "classic zelda-esque plot" and actually being well written unlike most other games in the franchise.

ALTTP, its the prototypical Zelda story now it'll probably be some variation of this. Even Ocarina is just aping the same basic story so even if they do OoT its still basically ALTTP.
AoZ is too barren, world is almost completely empty except for a few random old people, Zelda only shows up at the end.
AoL is just sleeping beauty.
LA is definitely a sequel, and "it was all a dream", can't start here.
BotW might work if you only tell the flashback story instead of the one in-game.

It's going to be Navi because she's a great choice for mascot merchandising.
Insane.
He's going to get absolutely destroyed though. The Mario movie was passable because nobody gives a fuck about Mario outside of the goofy lighthearted fun the games provide. Zelda is a very different case and he doesn't seem to understand that.
Link is a bumbling fool dipshit and Zelda fucking rocks and also can use the master sword better and also basically saves herself from Ganondorf but only after a couple nights haha

Miyamoto for the Mario movie made since, but he doesn't have anything to do with Zelda since Wind Waker, the game that almost killed the franchise...

You people are fucking demons. It's fitting, then, that so many of you will die virgins. Fuck off with your sodomy. In the golden years, you lot would be drawn and quartered for the amusement of non-homosexual folk. And your executions wouldn't even be the highlight of our day!
Can't wait for all the iconic Zelda musical themes to play second fiddle to shitty licensed music like in the Mario movie.
>Link stands on the edge of a mountain overlooking the vista of hyrule >3 notes of the hyrule plays, just enough to remind you the theme exists, before instead cutting to Bonnie Tyler, AC/DC, and Beastie Boys.
Did people really think they would only have all these obscure but meaningless references in their Big Hollywood Reimagining
don't know why you retards hyper fixate on link not talking. he canonically talks in the games, it's just silent for the players. he also talks in the manga adaptations
Same reason the idea of Mario being voiced by Chris Pratt in a movie adaption was so shocking
>obscure but meaningless references in their Big Hollywood Reimagining
Yeah man, actually using orchestral music from the property or original compositions reminiscent of music from the property is gay as hell, so much better to use licensed pop music.
Mostly find it funny how Brian Tyler wanted his senpai notice him with his otherwise forgettable score, only for Kondo and Miyamoto to both agree an occasional "vocal lyrical relief" would be more effective

That's it, this series is now officially dead to me. There's no hope anymore; none whatsoever. It's truly over. I think I'm finally free.
Everyone bitches about girlboss, but you know what? The girlboss trope already works well with characters like Midna, TP Zelda, WW Zelda/Tetra, and to some extent OoT Zelda/Sheik. We all know it's inevitable after they butchered Peach in the Mario movie, so they might as well adapt one of those games if that's the case.
Ghibli would never do it, pop-culture adaptations are beneath them and Miyazaki thinks video games are the devil or some shit like that.
The best we could've hoped for is some other studio emulating Ghibli's tone and style to their best ability.
If they base any part of it on breath of the wild or tears of the kingdom i will never stop shitposting and hating on the movie on this board for all time
No, he's right. >OoT has the most essential components for establishing Zelda's lore, tropes and setting >is considered to be the quintessential Zelda game by many >takes place in normal Hyrule. Not Termina, not Holodrum or Lybrynna, Not The Great Sea, not the Twilight Realm, not post-apocalyptic Hyrule - just regular old Hyrule (this makes things easy to establish from an introductory narrative perspective) >plot involves all of the essentials (the Triforce & three goddesses, the core races, Ganondorf & his transformation into Ganon, The Kingdom falling into ruin through Ganondorf's actions in real-time, The Master Sword, etc.) >pinnacle example of a coming-of-age story >OoT Zelda with her tomboy antics and Sheik alterego is perfect for Hollywood's recent girlboss trends & antics >the early leaked concepts for Universal Studio's Zelda theme park were based around OoT (pic-related was supposed to demonstrate one such attraction that involved guests venturing through OoT's Forest Temple with The Hero of Time) >Nintendo trademarked OoT again in 2020 for some mysterious reason or another >recent rumors within the gaming industry that Nintendo will reveal a full-on OoT remake sometime during The Game Awards, which will be a major title for the Switch 2
It really is mind-boggling why Nintendo went for live action when >currently undergoing an animation renaissance with stuff like Spiderverse and Arcane >animated movies are literally cheaper (and safer) to produce than big-budget live-action slop these days >even the normies of normies agree that animation is the go-to medium for Zelda
Miyamoto and Aonuma just need to go I think, and I say this as someone who's been a Zeldafag for almost 3 decades now.
BotW and TotK sucked because of Western games they got inspired by and now they gave the greenlight for a live-action movie which will be directed by some burger who's only worked on capeshit movies. These guys are out of their mind and absolutely don't understand what's good for the franchise, only how to make money. I've lost almost all respect I had for them.
Unlikely that Aonuma has any real involvement on this but I completely agree with you on Miyamoto. Man needs to retire already, he crossed George Lucas territory years ago and I suspect this upcoming flick will be the breaking point for a lot of people. His reputation is going to tank after this.
>Nintendo loves money but hates spending it'
Then why not anime? Literally the cheapest film medium out there thanks to animator abuse. The games are fucking anime-inspired for crying out loud.
Because normalfags won't care about it otherwise unless it's made by Ghibli. Ghibli doesn't do Video Game Adaptations and they've hardly done anything since the early 2010's though.
Stylistically, animation is experiencing a renaissance blending 3D and 2D elements together. Yes, that much is true. Before that it was all bland copy-pasted Pixar shit.
>Stylistically, animation is experiencing a renaissance
No it's not. Shit like Arcane or the Chainsaw Man anime with the director trying to ape live action film is not a renaissance. It's a bastardization of everything that made the medium good to begin with.
What's the point? Zelda is a series all about exploring. Pretty much none of the appeal lies in story telling outside of some insane tendies who think OoT had good characters and plot, or people who want to fuck Midna.

This one probably wont be like that. You cant really make Zelda into a lighthearted comedy like Mario or Pokemon, it's gonna be an action movie most likely. Probably just gonna cover the story of Ocarina of Time.

What game does your mind subconsciously turn into the movie? Ocarina is natural.
I once had a dream I was watching a Zelda movie in theaters that had Marin and a Mermaid in it. My dream self thought it was the greatest movie in history. I would personally prefer Ocarina of Time though.
Ocarina would be too dark, the ruins of castle town would make the children sad and the MPAA would make it PG13. They'll do LTTP. An animated film based on the old LTTP manga coulda actually been cool but of course the film industry is allergic to anything resembling quality.
It's live-action tentpole in current time, of course it will be PG-13
Ocarina is the earliest 'mythos' story to copy where you can do scenes like
>It ends up being OOT
>Live action Dead hand
>movie suddenly change from family friendly to dark fantasy ultra horror midway
I would cream myself in the theater
>Ocarina would be too dark

This makes no sense. The only game that is slightly darker than ALttP is MM. Both are by far the darkest two entries in the series. OoT is a lot more tame.
what ever happened to these guys?
Ocarina is the obvious answer because it's the most cinematic zelda with the best combination of "classic zelda-esque plot" and actually being well written unlike most other games in the franchise.
I like to imagine an amalgamation of them all.

don't know why you retards hyper fixate on link not talking. he canonically talks in the games, it's just silent for the players. he also talks in the manga adaptations
It's more about how you replicate a Zelda game's feel into a movie.
How do you get the feel of a dungeon in a movie?
That's the easy part. Labyrinth, the dungeons in Harry Potter, Moria etc are all solid inspirations. The difficulty will come from settling on character archetypes. Is Link going to be a wise-cracker, shy, idealistic? God forbid how they'll translate Zelda.
>Moria
Here's the problem, you have no companions.
Think Moria if it was just Aragorn running through. That's the Zelda film.

John Williams doesn't seem like the type who would willingly make out Koji Kondo
It's a shame he didn't make it, bros. We missed out on the best possible cast for Link...
Hope his daughter gets a cameo at least, rest in peace my man
Is robin williams the father of logan paul?
He would have been too old to play Link but he would make the perfect Tingle.
>its a movie about Link, Zelda. And Ganon get transported to the real world where the true triforce is
>You're saying the triforce of wisdom is in this shopping mall?
Finally, I've been waiting for you guys to come up with the newest LIIIIITE tier green text. Well.... LEMME HAVE IT!
how massive do you think his ego is now?
As big as Kojima’s
He has the oddest taste in movie svengalis
Insane.
He's going to get absolutely destroyed though. The Mario movie was passable because nobody gives a fuck about Mario outside of the goofy lighthearted fun the games provide. Zelda is a very different case and he doesn't seem to understand that.
Link is a bumbling fool dipshit and Zelda fucking rocks and also can use the master sword better and also basically saves herself from Ganondorf but only after a couple nights haha
>Link walks into a house and smashes all the pots
>"Well THAT just happened"
>Opening scene is POV fairy flying through desert city festival at night
>Fairy perches near two disguised women-warriors
>Impa + apprentice dispatched to clandestine assassinate prophesied birth of Gerudo male
>Sudden chaos and screaming
>"Soemthing terrible is happening"
>The assassins turn around to face adult Gerudo male
>Miyamoto doesn't care about the story. In fact, he actually hates it.
>"We're going to have him co-supervise a movie where the story will be important"
.... it will be a shitshow, isn't it?
Why not get Anouma involved?
Miyamoto for the Mario movie made since, but he doesn't have anything to do with Zelda since Wind Waker, the game that almost killed the franchise...
NOW LINK
FILL UP YOUR HEARTS

Where did you even find that dusty scripture anyway?!, throws it away
ZELDA girl boss TIME
DON'T STOP
gem thread
I dont know why but my image of a Zelda movie is OoT but adult link is played by Jim Carrey and obviously acting like a child brain in an adult body
I'd really like to see someone handle a dungeon boss in a movie.
Just a straight 3 minute fight in low light with multiple items and gadgets being used unorthodoxly like the hookshot as a whip.
>we watch link try to shoot the hook shot at a boss over and over for several minutes until he finally figures out he’s supposed to throw bombs in its mouth
>"Magic, huh? Never done this before... alright, let's give it a shot."
>"FARORE'S... WIIIIIIIIIIND!!!!!!"
>Link rips a huge fart as the spell fails
>Navi after a few seconds of silence:
>"...awkwarrrrrrrrd!"
Live Action, CGI or Anime
We already had a live-action zelda
>Demented masked boy-figure walks through moonlit forest carrying torch
>Softly sings lyrical Kokiri Forest tune with lyrics about becoming lost there forever
>Booming voice interrupts sauntering imp
>"Are you lost, little one"

>Drops torch; runs into woods
Which Link do we get?
Give me more, I DEMAND MORE

>very first panel instantly drops the anal bomb
You people are fucking demons. It's fitting, then, that so many of you will die virgins. Fuck off with your sodomy. In the golden years, you lot would be drawn and quartered for the amusement of non-homosexual folk. And your executions wouldn't even be the highlight of our day!
You realize anal isn't mentioned in a gay context right? Or are you just projecting your own gayness onto others? homosexual.
Or Zelda, for that matter.
>SS Zelda talking about Saria and Medli
Immersion broken
>*title drop* THE LEGEND OF ZELDA
>Link: Wait, that’s not my name!
>*Zelda facepalms*
Can't wait for all the iconic Zelda musical themes to play second fiddle to shitty licensed music like in the Mario movie.
>Link stands on the edge of a mountain overlooking the vista of hyrule
>3 notes of the hyrule plays, just enough to remind you the theme exists, before instead cutting to Bonnie Tyler, AC/DC, and Beastie Boys.
> before instead cutting to Bonnie Tyler
I literally cannot imagine a trailer for a modern adaptation of Zelda without "I need a Hero"
>Link arrives at Caslte Town
>TAKE ME DOWN TO PARADISE CITY
Did people really think they would only have all these obscure but meaningless references in their Big Hollywood Reimagining
Same reason the idea of Mario being voiced by Chris Pratt in a movie adaption was so shocking
>obscure but meaningless references in their Big Hollywood Reimagining
Yeah man, actually using orchestral music from the property or original compositions reminiscent of music from the property is gay as hell, so much better to use licensed pop music.
Mostly find it funny how Brian Tyler wanted his senpai notice him with his otherwise forgettable score, only for Kondo and Miyamoto to both agree an occasional "vocal lyrical relief" would be more effective
>Ganon's entrance
Enter Sandman starts playing
Ganon emerging slowly from rubble or something to the intro of For Whom the Bell Tolls would be kino.
>LA
FFS shiggy why not get toei to animate it.
>BoTW was barebones and ditched the classic forumula for ubisoft bullshit
>ToTK was more of the same, but even worse as it was just glorified DLC that didn't solve any of BoTW's underlying issues
>ALBW was the last original 2D Zelda, released over 10 years ago
>SS was dogshit, the last decent classic 3D Zelda was T
>Aonuma and Fujibayashi continuing to run the franchise into the ground on multiple aspects, with the latter outright admitting he gives to fuck about any form of narrative consistency
>now this news, which will bring in even more tasteless uber-normies of unmitigated magnitudes to the games
That's it, this series is now officially dead to me. There's no hope anymore; none whatsoever. It's truly over. I think I'm finally free.

5 bucks they will do this as a little 'gag'
they won't because it is a boomer meme, this movie is for zoomer crowds, like the mario movie was
Mario Movie was full of boomer gags, they background props.
The Mario movie was literally nothing but boomer fanservice though.
how many zoomers and gen alphas do you know that asked about said gags? they don't give a shit.

Everyone bitches about girlboss, but you know what? The girlboss trope already works well with characters like Midna, TP Zelda, WW Zelda/Tetra, and to some extent OoT Zelda/Sheik. We all know it's inevitable after they butchered Peach in the Mario movie, so they might as well adapt one of those games if that's the case.
Here are your theme song writers.
Imagine if this actually did play in the credits, or a remixed techno version

EXCUSE MEEEEE PRINCESS
Live action shit is garbage. Why not make it animated? Make studio ghibli do it
Its going to be animated CGI like Mario
It's not it's a live-action movie.
Yeah just like the "Live Action" Lion King remake.
Ghibli would never do it, pop-culture adaptations are beneath them and Miyazaki thinks video games are the devil or some shit like that.
The best we could've hoped for is some other studio emulating Ghibli's tone and style to their best ability.
What's the point if Robin Williams isn't around to play the King of Hyrule?
>after credits scene w/ link leavin for the lost woods and running into tatl, last scene is skullkid looking back, showing the mask
guarantee
>What are we? Some sorta Triforce Heroes?
If they base any part of it on breath of the wild or tears of the kingdom i will never stop shitposting and hating on the movie on this board for all time
AN ANCIENT EVIL AWAKENS
It's gonna be OoT for all intents and purposes.
>It's gonna be OoT for all intents and purposes.
unlikely, although that would admittedly be cool.
fuck off namefag tripfag attention whore homosexual have a nice day.
Are you okay anon?
fuck off, namefag.
No, he's right.
>OoT has the most essential components for establishing Zelda's lore, tropes and setting
>is considered to be the quintessential Zelda game by many
>takes place in normal Hyrule. Not Termina, not Holodrum or Lybrynna, Not The Great Sea, not the Twilight Realm, not post-apocalyptic Hyrule - just regular old Hyrule (this makes things easy to establish from an introductory narrative perspective)
>plot involves all of the essentials (the Triforce & three goddesses, the core races, Ganondorf & his transformation into Ganon, The Kingdom falling into ruin through Ganondorf's actions in real-time, The Master Sword, etc.)
>pinnacle example of a coming-of-age story
>OoT Zelda with her tomboy antics and Sheik alterego is perfect for Hollywood's recent girlboss trends & antics
>the early leaked concepts for Universal Studio's Zelda theme park were based around OoT (pic-related was supposed to demonstrate one such attraction that involved guests venturing through OoT's Forest Temple with The Hero of Time)
>Nintendo trademarked OoT again in 2020 for some mysterious reason or another
>recent rumors within the gaming industry that Nintendo will reveal a full-on OoT remake sometime during The Game Awards, which will be a major title for the Switch 2
Woops, forgot the the theme park image. There's more out there, including leaks for a dark ride and a boat ride apparently.
OOT: the movie would end malonfags forever because we all know whats gonna happen in the movie
link has more chemistry with the bombachu game girl than zelda
I don’t remember Impa being such a strong beautiful woman of colour.
this was the first image i ever saved onto my own pc, i downloaded the zelda windows theme pak too
HEY GANONDORK, EAT LEAD!
>DAMN IT FEELS GOOD TO BE A GANGSTA
It really is mind-boggling why Nintendo went for live action when
>currently undergoing an animation renaissance with stuff like Spiderverse and Arcane
>animated movies are literally cheaper (and safer) to produce than big-budget live-action slop these days
>even the normies of normies agree that animation is the go-to medium for Zelda
Miyamoto and Aonuma just need to go I think, and I say this as someone who's been a Zeldafag for almost 3 decades now.
BotW and TotK sucked because of Western games they got inspired by and now they gave the greenlight for a live-action movie which will be directed by some burger who's only worked on capeshit movies. These guys are out of their mind and absolutely don't understand what's good for the franchise, only how to make money. I've lost almost all respect I had for them.
Aonuma likely won't be directly involved with this, sounds like it'll be mostly Miyamoto and Kondo again
Unlikely that Aonuma has any real involvement on this but I completely agree with you on Miyamoto. Man needs to retire already, he crossed George Lucas territory years ago and I suspect this upcoming flick will be the breaking point for a lot of people. His reputation is going to tank after this.
They probably see Zelda as more novel and more fitting as their MCU equivalent than Mario, which is their Pixar
They were in talks with Netflix towards a LA Zelda series before that got leaked
Miyamoto is retarded
Aonuma is a hack
Nintendo loves money but hates spending it
>Nintendo loves money but hates spending it'
Then why not anime? Literally the cheapest film medium out there thanks to animator abuse. The games are fucking anime-inspired for crying out loud.
Because fans will only accept Ghibli doing it, and Miyazaki only rivals Miyamoto in terms of old fart with a galaxy sized-ego
Just get some other studio who's willing to copy-cat Ghibli's style and tone, there are plenty of them out there.
Because normalfags won't care about it otherwise unless it's made by Ghibli. Ghibli doesn't do Video Game Adaptations and they've hardly done anything since the early 2010's though.
>dogshit western and asiaticshit
>a fucking animation renaissance
Jesus Christ. I can't even imagine thinking this.
Stylistically, animation is experiencing a renaissance blending 3D and 2D elements together. Yes, that much is true. Before that it was all bland copy-pasted Pixar shit.
>Stylistically, animation is experiencing a renaissance
No it's not. Shit like Arcane or the Chainsaw Man anime with the director trying to ape live action film is not a renaissance. It's a bastardization of everything that made the medium good to begin with.
STARRING JAMES ROLFE AS LINK
AND MIKE MATEI AS GANON
>Live action
>Not semi-realistic animation like that fucking Kino emberlab majora's mask short movie
Missed the fucking mark and Nintendo have all the money they need.
no no no
the real Zelda film has already come out
?si=q3FoazbitXUKDswm
Why does it looks like a early 20s porn parody
A true he-A true hero seeks neither fame or fortune
STARRING
JOHN SMOSH AS LINK
get ready
if Cabill is playing anyone it should be pic related
Should do Ocarina of Time live action and is easy money
even if you reduce the temples to a montage, you still have to trim a lot to fit the "acceptable" runtime for nomies
What's the point? Zelda is a series all about exploring. Pretty much none of the appeal lies in story telling outside of some insane tendies who think OoT had good characters and plot, or people who want to fuck Midna.
The weirdest part is going to be how many people are in the movie. There will be extras that will make it feel too populated.
>Ryan Reynolds gets isekai'd as link
>Spends the whole movie being dragged around by girlboss resistance leader Zelda while he makes dumb jokes
>Navi voiced by Whoopi
>Malon is black, spends more time riding Epona than Link does
>Ruto played by trans actor, every thread has the same joke about turning the Zoras gay
Post-trailer quip

Hyrule Fantasy: A Legend of Zelda story
>Sheik son of Impa, has to thwart the evil sorcerer Carock, for freeing Ganon from his prison.
>Along the way he meets: Marin a cowgirl with a handy crossbow, Colin an aged adventure that seen too many battles, and Gorko the Goron that wants to paint the best scenes in Hyrule.
>Together they have to collect the two MacGuffins that Carock wants and destroy them, and the sorcerer already has one.
>They find out of prophecy of the chosen one that can defeat Ganon should he ever become free.
>They will have to sneak into the Gerudo base that has the other MacGuffin.
>They succeeded, but with a cost. Colin sacrifice his life by causing a cave in to trap him and two witches that use ice and fire, so that crew are able to escape.
>Everyone prays for Colin, and Sheik look on into the sunrise knowing that they can buy enough time until the chosen hero comes.
After the end credits, man with a green tunic is seen walking to Hyrule. You never see his face, but you see a small ball of light comes out of his cap. She says, "HEY!"
>Starring Mr. T as Dark Link
WELL EXCUUUUUUUUUUSE ME PRINCESS
Ben Stein as the Great Deku Tree.
Adam Sandler as Mido.
Jack Black as Talon.
Tom Hardy as Tingle.

a zelda movie will always be shit because the temples cannot reflect the gameplay and will just be Link walking into a castle and fighting the boss immediately. expect Castelvania netflix tier film

They director is israeli
what if they referenced that weird Majora's Mask with the lips lol
Do people REALLY go to see these "I KNOW THAT REFERENCE CLAPCLAPCLAPCLAP" movies?
I feel like if I saw the Mario movie for example that it would sour me on the games. I never did watch the first Mario movie ever again.
This one probably wont be like that. You cant really make Zelda into a lighthearted comedy like Mario or Pokemon, it's gonna be an action movie most likely. Probably just gonna cover the story of Ocarina of Time.
>Probably just gonna cover the story of Ocarina of Time
Yet MORE of a reason to never see it, lmao.
My bet is for NTR empowered Zelda in this movie and twink affeminate Link.
I can't wait to hear Zelda call Ganondorf unique looking.
It's over.
Featuring a cameo by Gilbert Gottfried, because "Gilbert Gottfried's final role" is becoming the new "Disney's first gay character".
I cased over the moon
This summer… a LEGEND… awakes
*Cut to Link (played by Jack McBrayer) accidentally knocking over a bucket of fish on the deck*
Tetra (played by Laura Harrier): "WHO DID THIS? you do realize that I run a tight ship, and I don't tolerate fishy business?"
Link: "I’m sorry Miss, Gill-ty as charged”
Narrator: "Join our heroes as they journey across the vast ocean, discovering ancient secrets, battling terrifying sea monsters, and experiencing true love."
Cut to a shot of Link and Tetra, holding hands while Tingle’s trying to stop his balloon from flailing
Link: "I may be hero of Hyrule, but you're the captain of my heart."
Tetra: "Oh, Link. You're a real catch. *wink*"
Narrator: "But when the evil Ganondorf (played by Dwayne Johnson) threatens to unleash his dark powers and destroy the world, our heroes must band together and face their fears."
Ganondorf: They won’t surrender… i guess i have to Try Force! Minions! Take what’s ours and Ge’ rudo them!
*Korok, played by Whoopi Goldberg*
Link, i need to reach my friend and we need to save the forest, wood you help?

Join our friends

it's funny that you don't specify an actor for tingle
