Normally I'd dismiss this as a headache-induced hallucination, but people do seem to be picking up on it

?!?!?!?!

The Legend of Zelda: live-action movie in the works,...

Huh

Honestly, I'm utterly bewildered- well, I wouldn't do this in the first place, but really- live action over animation?

I guess to give it their own spin???? idk I'd have preferred animation...

i would have thought the obvious step, if you wanted a zelda movie, is to go talk to studio ghibli

ohhhhhhhhhh I would love that. I've seen fanedits in that style and they look gorgeous... but maybe they're hoping for a marvel style franchise?

Maybe. Not entirely sure mostly single player adventure games lend themselves to that idea, though I suppose if they got it to work with Mario...

Hmmmmmmm

Oh, the Marvel comparison was appropriate. The co-producer is responsible for basically every non-MCU film or tv show we've seen in the past quarter century

...............and now I've gone from intriguied to horrified XD

I know the feeling

Why Zelda Fans Will Enjoy The Grand Sights and Sound...give a fandom an aneurysm, will you

..................now I'm even MORE worried

COMPARING TO RINGS OF POWER IS NOT THE WAY TO GET FANS ON BOARD

yeah. this was a misread of the room.

some of the zelda tumblr blogs are all but swearing off the movie already, which is probably a little premature but XD I understand

yeah. the youtube crowd is pretty glum as well.

i think... well, maybe you could manage something if you went back to eighties fantasy. princess bride. neverending story. labrynth. dark crystal.

but somehow i don't think those are avi arad's kind of films

ohh yes, that aesthetic would work well. but .... sadly you are right
