Legend of Zelda Movie

Well still I think that CGI is good, but at the same time it should be used for special occasions...Like a character or a special type of move or technique. I can't imagine Haley Joel Osmant as young link, even though he's becoming a high noticed actor It might be a good idea to look for someone who would fit into the role a little better...

HOWEVER, if using cgi will make Zelda a better movie then I suppose that it shouldn't go wrong, the only thing wrong was I was disappointed was Final Fantasy was completely twisted, I don't think it was all that great. The CGI can be cool, but they better not throw something off the game and make Ganon have a brother or Zelda have some twin. Whatever, I just hope that when a Zelda movie comes out I'll go see it no matter what

The Zelda movie should be a three part like lotr. Even though each LoTr movie was for each book. It would give them plenty of space to make a good movie. And link should be played by two unknown actors. It should be based on ocarina of time. Since it was great storytelling, and amazing characters.

I agree on link talking but i don't agree that the movie should be cgi. Like you said look what it did for Final fantasy. I don't know if i agree if themovie should be a 3 part because i don't think zelda has so many fans as lotr. two movies sound better .THey should not make any major changes. They should follow the exact same story line as the ocorina of time. And yes they should ask unknown actors for link and his adult version. Haley Joel Osment is next to Orlando bloom the worst choice.

i think link should be an unknown but i think that if they do TOOT they sould have Daniel Day-Lewis as Ganondorf. the thing is that if they do a Zelda movie that they would have t make it to at leaset two movies because of the time change and the Dundgeons. also nintendo would have it be a PG or a G movie because nintendo wants it to be avaliable to kids. then if they do make it into a different story line Ganon, Zelda, And Link would HAVE to be in it. then comes the problem of ganon. he is a PIG!! it would be stupid to do it. i dought it will ever be made a movie. somethings are best left to use your imgaination and Zelda is one of them. the only nintendo video games that would make sense arew Metroid, F- Zero, Fire Elbum, and My fav Illusions of Gaia (script already in progress).

OKAY OKAY, Ganon as a pig just sounds just too much like a cartoon/movie and not a fantasy/movie. Just thinking of link run around and slashing up his foes and waiting for a SECOND movie to fight Ganon, then that just makes me want to see the second one more...Better yet, I have an idea (this is basically for myself, and any others that feel the same way) that might make a First movie sound more appealing. At the end of the first one, how bout Link fights ganon and ganon can smash him off of some tower and then everyone think that Links dead...So, Link wakes up where ever and that begins the second one

I'm not so sure that Nintendo will make this (Which I'm pretty sure that THEY DON'T WANT TO) but whoever does would put the ratings up for a teen and above (your basic PG-13) I mean, I've seen some crazy PG movies and I've seen pretty calm PG-13 movies but that doesn't mean that only 13-** are going to see it... yeah sure, stupid little eight year olds love sneaking in those PG-13 movies.

But who would want to cast as LINK/ZELDA/GANON if it is based closely on Ocarina of Time, and not your old Zelda Cartoon with the RIGHT handed Link...I have to listen closely on BUFFYMITCH, He might have a few tricks up his sleeves.

I think people would be soooo ticked off if they had to wait for a second film to see Link vs Gannon. As long as the content is rich then I dont care how long or how many vids or cd's it takes lol

Levithian-22 your suggestions for two movies is a good idea. Actually a great idea. I hope nintendo reads this. Just after link opens the door of time, he fights ganon and loses. After that you see the destruction of Hyrule and then the movie ends. THen you can wait two years to see the next. So far it is the best idea i've heard on a Zelda movie.
For nintendo all they have to do is pick there movie makers right (directors and blah blah blah) They should have some say in it.
As for the rating i think it should be Pg-13 because if they make this movie serious and a bit darker than the game it self, you will have to use some kind of violence. I can't remember the rating of the game but i think you have be at least 13 years old to play this game on your self. Correct me if i'm wrong. The ocorina of time and Majora's mask did require some heavy thinking. And now for the big question: If this movie gets made, what will the cast look like. I have no idea. Those are some tough choices. Link, Zelda, Ganondorf, Saria and all of those sages. If i ever come up with some names i wil post it.
Hey anybody got pics I love those pics thanx

Ya know, maybe some really big fans (mainly like us) should have a big conference and compromise on a solution to this whole subject about a movie. Yeah sure, even though none of us have a hundred million dollars total, but that's where an idea can come from...If no one will take the balls to actually do anything about it, then just take it in your own two hands and mold it, sculpt it, and then add the finishing touches. What someone or somepeople need that most overlook is a professional screenwriter or producer. We could all just think about this, like how a lot of us feel that it should be based around the concept of Ocarina of Time. But, feeling that we might plain screw everything up then it might not be such a bright idea of dealing with all those negative feedbacks about the movie from other viewers saying, "Windwaker was Awsome, I'm angry that you didn't do that one...blah blah blah"

If you knew someone who really had bundles of dollars (like a big motorhome full of Benjamins) then let him do the talking and throw down a couple of those big bills...

Thanks for that support Buffymitch, Glad to know that we can see eye to eye on how it should look, MR SATSUJIN WANTS IT IN CGI...I say NO WAY, that's took plastic looking (I'm not saying CGI IS CRAP, I'm just saying that Link should be REALISTIC) WELL SATSUJIN, one word for you...BAKA

If I would like to see someone be in this movie, I'd like Orlando Bloom as Link (I think he'd measure up to Link's height, plus he's a very ENERGIZED person). Young Link would be (Boy, I can't think of anyone for that part). Zelda could be Hillary Duff (I couldn't think of anyone else, except for the part that she's pretty). Ganon (I think that one guy's guess isn't that bad, I'd have to say Daniel Day Lewis) Sorry for the fact that some of these can be pretty difficult, some people just don't know a lot of people so they'll just basically say anyone that pops in their head.

It should be based on Ocarina of Time. Also if someone really did want to do it properly, they'd have to reasearch the games and make sure everything links up past present and future. The story could be larger than what the game encompasses. All it takes if filling in the unknowns to the history and possible future outcomes. As for Orlando Bloom, believe me when I say that he isn't the only actor on the planet. He's what? 29... that's like having some 30 years old actress play a cheerleader in a Teen Flick.

lol CGI will only look fake if you spend a short amount of time making it. Have you ever seen a WarCraft 3 cinematic? CGI is over the top and depending who has enough cash to support the project link can look VERY real. They can use motion capture to achieve the realistic movement of the body and so on. Link can look so fantastic if done right.
Zelda is a clean game with no gore and I'd like it to be kept that way. Pure fantasy all the way.

if you can honestly tell me how this looks fake then I'll consider being a baka: (CGI from FFmovie)

After my last post i started thinking about who will play Zelda and levithian-22 Hillary was the only one who came to mind. But i wouldn't like Orlando Bloom because this role is way to similar to his character from LOTR. This pic looks real but you can still see that it's somehoew animated.

well, I've been thinking and it might be a better idea of how it seems that a lot of hollywood use wires. If ganon somehow does something amazing and impressive, then it would seem better to have it in CGI cause then it wouldn't look all that amazing. Secondly, if you have someone (I don't know who) as Link, and this person grunts, then it's going to sound stupid (ehhhh!!! will be replaced by the Yahhhh!!!) Seeing as how no one is on set for a CGI film, then they should get the person who does the effects of LINK and I also think that Ganondork (hehe) would be a tough person to actually follow as of appearence.

Yes, I'm sad that I said I think it should be in CGI, but that doesn't mean that there won't be killing, but not senseless gore and intestines flapping all over the place. Put in some blood and some good special effects and I won't mind. Hell, it'd be something better than just typing about something...would you actually want to watch a zelda movie? or would you just sit at THE computer and continue typing about BLAH BLAH?

I still think it should be real life. Yes a lot of Hollywood uses Wires but if they use the simple stunts it would still look cool. you can't actually put them next to each other but look at Gladiator. The fight scene in that movie were all done without wires and they were still good.

I don't know i f nintendo ever thought about making Zelda into a movie. But we can make them think. Why don't we send this whole trhead to Nintendo or someone who can do something about it. If we don't do this this movie might never be made. Just a thought

id like to know who would be playing link

okay, I think it seems a lot tougher to figure out the good, in this case who'd be who?

Let's focus on an alternative...who would you hate to see as someone, in this case. I'd hate to see Cameron Diaz as Zelda or Brad Pitt as Link (the thought of that would make it seem Rated R). SO, WHO DO YOU NOT WANT TO SEE IN THIS MOVIE? and yes I did Say "NOT"

well, link shouldnt be to masquline.

i dont want to see leo di caprio or paul waker as link and deffnatly no kate hudson for zelda.

It would have to be live action, CgGI for some of the monsters maybe, but real good CGI like in the two towers with the Urukhai army and tree beard or motion capture like Gollum. as for the roles, i could see young Link being played by one of the twins who played Julian in Big Daddy (theyre older now plusthe film is still a while away so theyed be oldr then too), adult Link is a trickier prospect, but i think the guy who played pippin in LOTR could be an interesting choice. young Zelda could be played by Michelle Traschenberg(hope thats spelled right!) from BTVS while adult Zelda could be played by someone like Katie Holmes (dawsons creek) I cant think of anyone better to play Impa that halle berry, shes pretty much ideal for the part. Gannondorf would have to be played by someone with a real aura of menace but who could pass as a noble guy if needed, a younger version of Chritopher Walken would be ideal, but hes slightly too old so, what about Kiefer Sutherland? (24, Lost Boys, phone both).
As for plot, id like to see 2 movies, the first based on Ocorina of time, but at the end the escape from the tower is the end,and link doesnt get sent back to his time (YET!) then in the sequel Gannon awakens, Zelda dissapears (taken by Gannon) and link has to find her, this also helps with the dungeon problem as the dungeons could be split over 2 films with a little bit of reworking in the storyline. Gannon isnt shown untill the end of he film where link fights him, and hes done using CGI or motion capture(like the moria cave troll). i think the scene that would have to be left in for definate would b the dark link scene, id love to see that done well! anyone got any other ideas?

K, I'd just like to say, anyone who thought that Link shouldn't talk in the movie is an idiot. What the F.uck is the point of that? He can still remain his true character even though he has lines. Orlando Bloom as Link is also a dumb idea. That guy is too old and he doesn't wanna be playin characters like Link his whole Life. Get someone whos like 17 or sumthin.
And there would be ways to make 3 movies out of Ocarina of Time but still show that he has to do all the stuff, it could just like show clips of him doing some dungeon stuff and have like someone narrating and liek stuff.. and once in a while it shows a great battle scene. I like the idea of Hilary Duff playing Zelda.. anyways thats it see ya

You're the idiot.... Link hasnt spoken a single word in any zelda game. Who are you to say that tradition should be broken? I think the only person to have a say in that is Shigeru Miyamoto
