Who thinks they should make a live action movie of Legend of Zelda: OoT

[Jake rylander]

I think they should.

^Why? Please put a little more effort into making the opening post of a thread. If you just ask a question in the title, and put a few short words in the opening post, it just screams "nooooooooooby!!!"
For example, providing This link might spark some discussion.

My view on the matter on topic is split. On one hand, it could potentially be great. Then again, efforts to convert a game to a film hasn't exactly brought good results in the past. The things that made the game awesome might not work as well in movie format. The elements of exploration, puzzle-solving or side quests simply can't be replicated in a movie.

Then again, I'm all for making a movie based on the Legend of Zelda, but independed on any of the games' storylines. That would give the writers a little more freedom. Actually, there are quite a few fan projects in the works out there, but with a limited budget and competence, the results vary in quality (usually between "mediocre" and "terrible"). However, the fake trailer IGN made and all the response they got shows that it might be worthwile for Nintendo to actually put some money in an official movie. Here's hope. But not much expectations.

Honestly, I was about to cry when I saw that. I was scared they'd ruin Zelda

There's a manga of Ocarina of Time which I thought was pretty good.

I think it could work as a short anime movie but not so much for a live action movie. It would be exciting to see renderings, costumes and props but I can't imagine what the budget would be like for something like that. Also, how will Link sound?

I think some of us might remember that live action Mario movie from a while ago...lol it was bad.

He would sound like the cartoon character, or the AHHHHHHHH voice from when he falls.

An Animated movie.. I would LOVE to see.

Or they could finish the series make an anime

[Ruto]

Yep. The sidequest formula works for an anime series (Cardcaptor Sakura, anyone? ) but there needs to be a lot of extra plot lines added in. The manga has a lot of humor in it, and the Zelda/Link romance thing going on for the extra stuff. 

Voice acting-wise, I think the Twilight Princess voice actor (Akira Sasanuma?) for Link could work...Nobuyuki Hiyama is great but his speaking voice sounds a bit deep for teenage Link.

If they do make a movie, I'm not sure if people would be able to recognize the game elements from the movie anymore! The manga got rid of almost all the sidequests but focused on a few of them into a few funny chapters (does anyone remember Ruto's arranged marriage scenes?  )

Oh crap better change the title to what would/should a Zelda movie be like. XDDDD

True, It scares you because it can come out really great or really bad, plus Link NEVER talks in the game, so makes you wonder if he would talk in the movie. Oh an yeah I saw that video from IGN.

This I've got see.

Wait, you seriously mean porno? But Link is 10 for half the game...xD

Don't even try to say that you don't already know that a billion instances of such a thing as well as much, much worse already exist on the internet.

Nice site. Nice manga too.

Don't even try to say that you don't already know that a billion instances of such a thing as well as much, much worse already exist on the internet.

As goes the rules of the internet:
34: There is a Porn of it. No Exceptions.
34-1: If a Porn of something cannot be found, /B/ will make it.
35: The exception to rule 34 is the citation of rule 34.

Has anyone seen the fake movie trailer of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on YouTube? I think a movie nased on this game would be great!

[Dude]

34-1: If a Porn of something cannot be found, /B/ will make it.

RULES 1 AND 2, BITCH. *slaps*

[universe-X]

I think they should make one. The April Fool's Trailer made me so mad when I found out it was fake -.- But if they could make it look that awesome as a joke, what could they do if they made it for real?

[fingerz]

RULES 1 AND 2, BITCH. *slaps*

I'd make 'em rules 1 and 2 too, but I'm not the one who made these... go talk to /B/.

Precisely my point! I loved that too! They should so make one.

Rule 1: You do not talk about /b/
Rule 2: You DO NOT talk about /b/
