If legend of zelda was real...

[soliloquy]

another take from the pokemon theme we had a while ago...
i'm sure zelda fans are already familiar with that april fools video made by IGN a few years ago:


well, apparently some fan on facebook is making a fan made movie on zelda. here are some random clips from is:












this is just fan inspired art. we have seen the cartoon link. the 8-bit link. the child link. the adult link. the farmer link...and now we see the old-OLD link:




its odd. i always wondered why they never made a dark or a light link. i suggested this idea to nintendo a while back to allow link to wear all black and all white clothes to introduce an evil/light side to link which never was present before...but heres dark link. i guess this is a take on 'shadow link' from OOT water temple:










i mean think about it...the Lord Of The Rings movies were possible. a large part of the first movie was taking place with the elves in the enchanted woods. link has elvish ears, and i'm sure they can pull something similar

Link could be cuter in that first pic.

Replica Zelda Master Sword And Shield

I would pay untold amounts of money if they remade Ocarina of Time using the graphics and combat system from Twilight Princess.

[Xiphos68]

Cool! The fan made movie doesn't look bad as far as graphic goes!
Hopefully it'll be really cool.

Thanks for posting.

hylian hookers.... drooooool ;p

This makes me want to break out A Link to The Past. That is still by far my favorite video game of the series.

Sevenstring.org I thank everyone in this thread for you have finally filled the void of "Which game do I play now?"
I think I'll dig out my N64 and kick Ocarina of Time's ass for the umpteenth time. I'll do it like this: no extra hearts, no heart booster, only wearing iron boots and I won't put pants during play time...in real life.

This has got to be one of my favorite non-gear-related threads in this site! I really need to watch that new fan-made movie. It looks like it's going to be good! I also agree that this movie is totally doable. If they made Lord of The Rings, Harry Potter, and Transformers look good, they can do this movie in a breeze and make it amazing. For some reason, I'd like to watch a version of a Zelda movie that would follow the Twilight Princess storyline... It would be so brutal

Oh, and by the way, there IS a Zelda fan-made movie out. It's made by some British people (I think... At least, they have British accents). It's extremely shitty (so shit that it's funny and so bad that it's good). However, being the Zelda fanwhore that I am, I can't help but love it. Search for it, it's called "The Hero Of Time", totally worth the watch

I love you for saying that. It would be my favorite game ever created. Along with Twilight Princess, of course I still can't get over its gameplay and the whole storyline.

Try collecting every single item in the game in the least time possible, it's always fun to do haha! Golden Skulltulas included... Still without your pants on That should be interesting

By golly, you're onto something!

Sorry I tend to get overly excited when it comes to Zelda and/or Metroid. A few other classics too, but those are the two main ones haha!

Has anyone ever beaten the original Legend of Zelda - Second Quest? I always got too frustrated on the screens with the umpteen ironknuckles and gave up, but now I'm wondering what happens at the end of the second quest.

If Nintendo made a crappy Mario movie, why not a Zelda movie? ... On second thought, nearly every video game related movie I've ever seen has been pretty lame...

[MusicMetalHead]

@soliloquy dark link has actually been a recurring theme in the zelda series. oot had the shadow link in the water temple. many of the other games have had them too. even the latest twilight princess kinda did, although that was the same character in a differant form instead of an evil version you have too defeat, but the concept is similar.

The Mortal Kombat movies are awesome for that very same reason.

the new mortal kombat movie coming out in 2011 or 2012 looks kick ass though.

and as much as i HATE him, the movie based on DOOM was pretty well made. i say well made coz they did an awesome job with the graphics...


also, for those who are interested in the zelda series but want to try somehting different but similar, try grabbing ICO and shadows of colossus. heres a screen play from SOC:

[Meatbucket]

SoC is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EPPPICCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC

[ghstofperdition]

OOT is my favorite game ever made. I heartily ....ing approve of this thread!

I'm such a fanboy that I would beat up schoolkids for money to see a movie of this storyline (preferably the OOT storyline).


And I think that Hyrulian Hookers meme is now my new desktop background.

Mine too, although I enjoyed Twilight princess a lot, and am really looking forward to the new addition.

Those are pretty much my 2 also, although I still have a soft spot for Mario and old platformers in general.. I need to play Other M badly.

In 3rd year of Uni my friend found an original NES back home and brought it, we beat second quest... but it took a long time, and a lot of bombs. One dungeon you have to walk through invisible doors and everything. It was ridiculous.

Oh yes, I got a soft spot for those, as well. Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, Donkey Kong Country 1 and 2... And many others!
Also some old RPG's. Super Mario RPG is one of my top favorites of all time, too ... I was close to getting Other M not so long ago, but decided I'd invest on a CrunchLab 7 for my Carvin instead... Although I have a feeling I will regret that decision

I'm the zelda kid at my high school haha.
Got the twilight princess backpack, the triforce belt buckle, the shirt yada yada. OoT was the best with TP being a solid second. When I was little and first got zelda my mission to get everything in the game took 240+ hours hahahahahahaah

Man..if they made an OoT or TP movie...i'd have to buy a legit theatre system for my house to watch it every night hahahaha

BTW, SoC was BEAST but wayyyyyy too short IMO

Being one of the many people who was introduced to the franchise by The Legend of Zelda, then played Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, then A Link to the Past, etc., I think that it is interesting how places have become people, and how people became different people and whatnot. Very few games in the franchise jive with each other.

I think that if Nintendo decided to make a really good Zelda movie, it'd have to be one of a trilogy, and they wouldn't be able to get away with this reboot ad nauseum crap they've been doing with the storylines of the games.

They are such great games, that people don't care, but seriously- pretty much every other Zelda game is a complete retelling of the storyline.

If there was a Zelda movie, it would canonize a particular storyline, and then all of the games would be expected to jive with that.

short? idk what you're talking about man. granted, it was no FFX or OOT which the games last well over 150 hours, but i thought it was one of the longer modern games out there. but then again, when i was not killing those bad ass bosses, or feeling miserable for killing something so big and majestic looking (i'm an emo when animals die... ), i was out exploring secret crannies and nooks in the game, or hunting those lizards, or fruites, or just seeing how far i can run on a horse before an invisible wall stops me...surprisingly i didn't run into any. i think the game took me about 50 hours to beat?

and of all the 18 bosses or however many there were, that turtle one took the longest! it should be a rule, majestic animals like those should not spit lazers out of their mouth unless its starwars!

Holy this thats so cool
ocarina of time for life!
