They will because it's a cash grab and the writers will be too checked-out to do something creative with a mute.
Link is canonically not mute. He talks in the games all the time, you just don't hear him. People are so fricking moronic I swear there's no hope for anyone.
Well exccuuuuuuuuuuuuussse meeeee princess!
silent film adaptation confirmed
Tom Holland will play Link
dude, he's younger than me and I mog him and age much more graciously.
its their job is to be creative and figure it out. why should i be worried about it?
>its their job is to be creative and figure it out
no, it's no
stop being entitled
You expect a legend of Zelda(tm) movie to be a bastion of creativity?
You anons are forgetting that Illumination is handling this, not a studio that is competent. All of Illumination's animators should be kept and the writers fired and replaced with talented non-politically motivated writers since that is the clear bottleneck. This will never happen though.
I thought Nintendo was doing the writing?
So what is the problem?
Hunter Shafer has a scheduling conflict
Sad af he would make a great OoT era link
"Z"
A man is the hero
Link doesn't talk and the characters that do are fricking morons, along with the lore of the franchise. A major studio would never hire technically creative people to make the film and its choreography look great, and since it's an IP that relies entirely on the brand you can't go venture too far away from the visual or writing of the previously established.
So it's a rock and a hard place. The real question is what kind of moron do you have to be to even watch a movie like this?
Link talks in every Zelda game dip shit.
The hero is white and not bent.
>blonde haired white man saves the kidnapped white princess from the dark skinned desert living monster
i'm sure they'll make ganon a sympathetic villain who has plenty of perfectly good reasons to do what appear to be evil acts on the surface
20 years too late.
They want to make Zelda a girl
Kiddy Zelda movie like Mario would destroy the franchise. They are on completely thin ice after the TotK
>They are on completely thin ice after one of the most successful and critically acclaimed games of all time
It didn’t get higher score than BotW. They are stagnating again.
BotW was trash and people that thought it was good are deluded or brainwashed.
Maybe I'm wrong, because this just a shot in the dark, but I feel you're probably a fan of Twilight Princess, and feel the series should be super dark/serious.
Nah, the weapons system is trash and TOTK have way too many heavy weapon types and not even one handed sword types.
I'm a boomer so I've played the series from the beginning with the first one I really got into with a system I actually owned was LttP. what does dark mean? it just has to be good. does it need to be bubble gum looking like Mario, no. but if you follow a progression of an actual story like almost any game of the series, it will be 'dark' naturally.
It's gotta be like Lord of the Rings, the 2001 version, not the Amazon rings.
>Z
wow, fricked up
I hope he's not white
>inb4 link is some stuttering nerd and zelda rescues herself
could be cute if they made him mute.
Plus, representushun
Well EXCUUUUUUUUSE ME, princess!
https://zeldawiki.wiki/wiki/List_of_Voice_Actors#Link
even in terms of dialogue rather than just 'hyaa!' there have been two Western cartoons and a Japanese radio drama. plus those CD-i games with the MS Paint animations.
Gordon Freeman makes a phone call in the Half-Life manual, Mario has full dialogue in the anime (plus Western cartoon and live action skits).
just hire an actor and write dialogue and have the actor deliver the dialogue, like a film.
here's your zelda, bro
I am game if this is a biological woman. You can't even be sure anymore nowadays.
>zelda
Get a baggy shirt and some tight, white leggings to show off his bulge and you got yourself a Link.
>what if zelda was a boy
I would cast him as both Link and Zelda
It could be a not-movie like Mario Bros where instead of story or characters they have things you recognize from Zelda.
That’s exactly what it’s going to be, especially since they’re likely to assign script writing duties to an AI
>Your Link voice actor has arrived
It will be even shittier than the Mario movie was. Making a good Zelda movie is a tall order and Illumination couldn't even get a Mario movie right.
This is a dumb concern because Mario is a silent protagonist as well but speaks in the movie.
yes and that movie sucked
Wrong, there's no need to be a contrarian on some things.
It was not good. The plot was a pointless mess, Peach was made more heroically competent than Mario making Mario pointless, the lack of story and sense was replaced with "'member kart racing?" Or a plethora of other references with pop songs from 40 years ago. The only good part of the movie was that it was well animated.
it was fun but not something I would say was a good movie. I'll never watch it again. kids movies in the 80s and 90s at least had some stakes and emotion. everything now is too safe.
Link HAS to be silent
They're not making the movie for autistic Nintendo fanboys like you
>autistic
Says the person who must adamantly defend Hollywood writers
He says things like "it's a-me, Mario," and "let's-a go."
And Link makes random grunting and yelling sounds so he isn't technically silent either
Only words count.
Link should be a silent protagonist like the games.
a zelda movie has been in the minds of many for decades now and I believe the problem is solved. make link an unironic mute. the dude literally can’t talk.
I’d say make it an full-on silent movie, with a lavish orchestral score, but no one today would want to do something that potentially interesting
That would be kino.
Nintendo themselves might. They got their own studio, right? Frick Hollywood.
>So we decided to make Ganon an incel.
The Zelda movie will be heavy on romance. And for that reason millions of rabid girls from around the globe will dump their money on it.
SS Zelda was the cutest one. I wish I was Link so I could put babies in her.
Need a Studio Ghibli LoZ movie trilogy. First film should end with Link obtaining the master sword. Second film should end with Link failing to defeat Ganon. Third film should his triumphant return, where he kills Ganon, marries Zelda, and thus becomes king.
>where he kills Ganon, marries Zelda, and thus becomes king.
does that ever actually happen? Never played all the games, but Link's life seems stuck in a timeloop where he's screwed out of any fulfilling life but fighting.
Link is King of Hyrule in Zelda 2 having married the Zelda from the first game. It probably happens often.
No, it doesn't happen, but it should. The games are basically not connected at all. Nerds will tell you they are, but aside from those which are direct sequels there's not really any continuity. It's just the same story over and over again done a bit differently. Nintendo cares more about making the games fun than they do about making the story compelling. I don't really mean that as an insult, btw, the games are great and worth playing. But for a movie to work Link actually needs to develop as a character and actually be rewarded for saving the world.
Skyward sword Zelda and Link began the royal line.
i just wonder what ganon's up to
Cast her
Beyoncé
As long as they use Hyrule Warriors design of Link because he's cute as frick.
They should just an alternate timeline take on it where Zelda is a girl.
It’s called Zelda but Link is the main protagonist
can you read?
Just make it about goofy-ass Toon Link and Tetra. Leave Adult Link for the 'Into the Multi-timeline' sequel.
Wind Waker Zelda movie might work, especially the whole pirates concept. Summer release, I can see it filling the void Pirates of the Caribbean left.
Yeah probably
They should have it be some fat video game nerd that takes the role of link and then his imagined Zelda is a lanky troony
I managed to do the the Mike Matei thing(well I learned it from Mike) and beat the first Zelda and beat the game without using the sword-except on Ganon. It's insanely tedious doing it
Midna.
Only Idris Elba has the wiener large enough.
