[QUOTE="LightBeam, post: 9352325, member: 466154"] People are really too afraid of adaptations and I don't fully understand. It all depends on the filmmakers doing the work behind it. Well ok you take Resident Evil and Monster Hunter and it's really not great, but that's because the filmmaker behind it is relatively mediocre. On the other hand you take the series The Witcher and Castlevania .... It's really great. I also really liked the World of Warcraft movie, even if it was a lot of fan service, it wasn't heavy and it didn't take a monstrous amount of time to explain the universe to those who didn't know it (it's such a shame that it worked at home...). The movie deserved much better than that I think). Yes Zelda, there's not a lot of script blah blah blah blah blah, so what ???? It's the principle of an adaptation. Transposing the universe of a video game so that it can work in a movie or a series. Do you think there is no potential for writing a good script in the universe of Zelda? It's so rich, you could potentially tell anything and it would work, as long as there are competent people behind it. So I'm a little saddened by this loss, unlike some people. Zelda is a big license and I'm sure that even among film professionals there are people who love Zelda and would have loved to work on this franchise to tell a good story. And on top of that, a StarFox made out of modeling clay ... That would have been great too. But Nintendo is way too cold, it's boring. There was just a leak and they didn't even try to take the temperature. They just canceled everything without even knowing if they were going to do something good. It's sad in the end, but on the one hand it's not surprising. We're talking about the company that has the biggest insecurity problem in the industry. If they could DMCA a kid who was drawing a picture of Mario, they would do it, so cancel serial projects for fear of "hurting their franchises" when they are doing very well on their own ... Nothing really surprising in the end. [/QUOTE]
