no...it wouldn't..people need to stop thinking that it would

the games are good because of what you can do in them...little side quests....daft archery games and horse racing...fishing...

the balance between the dungeons and the exploration of the outside world

none of that could translate to a film...it would simply end up being a cheesy good v evil/ save the princess shit film

you could put maybe one boss battle in it because anymore other than ganon would be repetative

you could some information gathering in markets or at strange locations like the witches shop

you could introduce the kokiri...the owl as a guide and maybe the wise sword master from wind waker as link trains up to fight ganon

but thats about it...you'd lose massive amounts of what makes the games so brilliant

I disagree to an extent. While A Zelda movie could never be the greatest film ever. If they have a few boss fights it could translate to a pretty good fantasy/action film. I have faith that if they ever did release a film it would be good. The April fools trailer actually could have been a decent movie had the CG been better and if Ganondorf and all the other characters looked alot better. But it shows that the concept could be translated to film. It would just need an enormous budget...lol

i dont want people to stop thinking it will be a DUMB idea...i want people to stop thinking it will be a good idea

the more people think it will be a good idea...the more chance it has of eventually happening...and the fact is...it'll be a total **** up

That is a question that always comes up. We have been approached by people before and we have thought about potential ways that it could happen. But I struggle with the Hollywood process. So it is just a question of whether or not we can find something down the road that will meet our desires.

You dont know if it'll be a **** up or not until it happens. **** up or not...it'll probably happen one day.

trust me...i know these things

if it happens...and it's good i'll eat a hat...not just any hat though

i just think all the stuff that made the games great wont translate to film...namely the way they PLAY

It will suck.

You simply CAN'T take a video game that's literally hours upon hours long, and there's several of them, and conver it into a two or three hour movie and expect it to be good. You can pull it off with books, but it can�t be done with a video game� fact.

If anyone disagrees, privde proof to the contrary. Show me a good video game movie..

Ocarina of Time: Who Would You Cast???

Please dont tear me a new one for asking this and if it is a duplicate of another please close. BUT, in the wake of that April Fool's trailer for a Legend of Zelda movie I was wondering if someone were to make a film adaptation of the game who would you cast for all the memorable characters and who would you have direct the film?

My is as follows:

Young Link: Freddie Highmore
Adult Link: Jake Gyllenhal or Orlando Bloom (both would do well)
Young Princess Zelda: Dakota Fanning
Adult Princess Zelda: Scarlett Johansson or Keira Knightley (this is a tough one)
Ganondorf: Jason Isaacs
Impa: Rosario Dawson
Director: Peter Jackson or Guillermo del Toro
