Legend of Zelda Movie?? Seriously I cant tell if this is a joke or not...

[Kunaak]

ok, the concept of a Zelda movie has never ever occured to me.
probably cause it never seemed like a game that could translate well into a movie...

yet here it is.

I think....

thing is, I honestly cant tell if its a joke or not.
I mean, the editing is ok.
theres a fair amount of production value in it.
it seems very "summer movie" -ish.

but the gannon charactor looks like hes wearing a halloween mask, and the action scenes are horrible sometimes.

plus...

would nintendo ever actually allow a Zelda game?
if they did, I assume they would want something far better.

perhaps I am being harsh on it, but it just looked wierd to me.
not so horrible that I could say it seems like a joke.
but bad enough to where I think it might be.
I dunno...

uuuuuuuuuhhhh.:hm:

[cadaveca]

dead link...smells of April's fools...

[THX1138]

Happy April first. I was laughing so hard when I saw him wearing that hat.

IGN has done such good job to pull this prank on April 1st, I'm sure they put lot of efforts and probably money on this too. Regardless, it's quiet good to entertain, best April's Fool prank yet? :lol:

[FischOderAal]

wow! increadible nice prank. looks better than most of Uwe Bolls movies xD

[Blauhung]

wow! increadible nice prank. looks better than most of Uwe Bolls movies xD

haha, yeah, it does :up:

[BulldogPO]

Pretty much effort put in aprils fools prank.

[LordEC911]

The IGN icon in the credits at the end is the dead give-away.

[Piotrsama]

Very well done, they should try to produce it now.

[VulgarHandle]

BASTARDS!!!!!

that's hitting below the belt if you ask me

[crash5s]

Remember the Zelda cartoons, the Nintendo TV show, the Mario bros movie?

Nintendo has allowed a lot of crap to be made featuring their characters.

[Mav451]

Lol did nobody pay attention to the release date?

"April 1st, 2009"

That said, I still got the Zelda nostalgia from the music...less so from the characters. The spider (1st boss from OoT) looked pretty nice though.

[Nicksterr]

Must have cost a pretty penny to produce, or somebody donated a lot of their time to do the gfx.

[Natalia]

Could have been plausible... I mean they did make a Mario movie :rofl:

[Gogeta]

BASTARDS!!!!!

Sorry to be off-topic, but....the rig in your signature is bringing back good memories for me. :D

it's been dead for about a month :( running at -40c for a year and a half took it's toll, and i refuse to spend another dime on it and refuse to build another rig till AMD kills the cold-bug (please no 'go intel' comments)

so i'm stuck on a laptop for a while, kinda bored

but then, I saw a thread about a Zelda movie, just to have the dream thrashed

the horribleness of it all

[Eddie3dfx]

Nothing beats the zelda toons on my cell phone :D

[PrometheusCon]

Wow. That trailer is actually pretty sweet. I am a pretty simple man when it comes to movies (i dont find any movie really too terrible actually) and this kinda excited me. Though like it's been said, it must have cost a boatload to do that all for an april fools prank.

[Mav451]

If you look at the IGN comments...someone actually found the actress's website.

[Yukon Trooper]

Prank. And if it's not a prank, then it looks absolutely HORRIBLE.

[XS Janus]

WTF or HTF is Zelda?

[Krelin]

Lol did nobody pay attention to the release date?

"April 1st, 2009"


They might do something in connection with this next 1st april. So I guess I stay tuned. :rofl:

[jonnyGURU]

And the IGN.COM PRESENTS at the beginning isn't? ;)

[bullet2urbrain]

Bob Hoskins + John Leguizamo = Cinematic Gold

I dont know what you are talking about :rofl:... there is no reason to laugh at such a fine display of american film.

Trust the Fungus.


a quote from SMB the movie pulled from memory


Whats your name?
Mario
Mario what?
Mario Mario
and your name?
Luigi
let me guess, Luigi Luigi
Nah, Luigi Mario

:rofl:

I saw this on Xplay last night, pretty decent joke.

[JAWS]

fake for sure, but I liked the concept. no offense but the actors were to ugly. the Zelda music always gets me excited for some reason.

nope, nope and barely but yes, remember previews of a mario movie.
never saw it though.

considering though that they made movies of....

dungeon siege.
bloodrayne.
punisher.
captain america (I think)
ghost rider.
doom.

bad crossover movies are everywhere.
this one fooled me alittle.
enough to where I couldnt tell if it was real or not.
felt fake.
but couldnt say for sure.

yep, it definatly fooled me.

[FischOderAal]

well, it looked a bit cheap but what made it clear for me was "coming 1. April 2009" ;)

[PrometheusCon]

Kunaak you forgot Resident Evil, Mortal Combat, and Street Fighter.

Haha I agree though. Almost all the game -> movie transitions are HORRIBLE.

[X.T.R.E.M.E_ICE]

Kunaak you forgot Resident Evil, Mortal Combat, and Street Fighter.

Haha I agree though. Almost all the game -> movie transitions are HORRIBLE.Resident Evil, Mortal Combat are great movies. Street fighter wasn't so great as it didn't hold to true Mythology.

For a B-movie, it was pretty decent. But, then again, I'm a huge Cap' fan :)

Yup, they also made a RTCW, it was a low budget one that used another name. Then there's another that's supposed to be big budget.

The director went to Jail for manslaughter. Mechwarrior, Oni (musha), Sin and Quake were mentioned by a friend in Hollywood;) Transformers have Hollywood in Copycat mode!
