The Legend of Zelda- should a movie be made?

[Gahars]

I wouldn't NEVER want to see a Zelda movie unless it was directed by Miyamoto himself!

Because a man who has never directed a single film in his life would be the perfect choice to head a large and (likely) expensive production... why exactly?

Well, storywise at least.

Wouldn't "writer" be a better job for that, then?

If a real Loz movie exists, will you sit down and watch it?

Spoiler

the director is Uwe Boll

Don't mention that name (even with spoilers) it's too evil.

Wait how would you control Link if its a movie?

 

[The Catboy]

No.
I am leaving it at that

 

[MelodieOctavia]

no and enough with these pants-on-head retarded threads.

 

[Deleted User]

Cartoon, No
Movie , No
Anime, Yes

you use mindcontrol probably nintendo's next secret project (first dual touchscreen, then hendheld 3D).

 

[gamefan5]

A legend of Zelda movie??? Hmm.... ABSOLUTELY NOT! The series has become WAY too complicated to make a movie in general. Plus, I'm pretty sure loads of things would change (i.e. Make Link talk).

 

[Gahars]

Cartoon, No
Anime, Yes

That's redundant and inconsistent.

god, people, rule of numbers predicts that, one videogame adaption is bound to be great one day, so yeah, im happy over every single videogame movie ever

oh yeah, one but: dont try to adapt a games story. just make it a seperate story, no hero of winds, no hero of time etc

 

[KingdomBlade]

No. LoZ's plot isn't very strong in general. And, Video Game adaptations are often extreme pieces of shit.

I love The Legend of Zelda series since I was introduced to it and I have to say that a movie would be a very bad idea! I mean take a look at the old cartoon series; It was terrible and a movie adaptation just wouldn't work. One way I guess it could work might be to make a movie series and have each movie based on the location/temple Link would be at with some sort of trouble for the people of that area and then all finishing with a battle of the temple's boss and moving on to the next movie once when Link finishes with that area, at least that's my take but still it would be tricky if compared to the games.

If a movie is made, it wil turn out like the Super Mario Bros movie.

Really, the Legend of Zelda games don't have much in the way of story. If you were to make a feature film, there would have to be a lot of expansions made, and fans are well known for being fickle when it comes to that. Plus, it probably wouldn't be all that profitable anyway (Not many people would likely run out to see a LoZ movie, and a share of the cash made would have to be split with Nintendo) for whoever makes the movie.

Dafuq did I just read?

LoZ doesn't have much story? Have you even played the games? Or read the manga? (the movie would probably be based on the manga version of OoT)

And whats this about fans wouldn't go to see it?

I never said the fans wouldn't show up; that fanbase alone, however, wouldn't be enough to guarantee a financial success for a (likely) expensive production.
