Zelda the Movie?!... didn't see this coming...

So, wow. A Legend of Zelda motion picture has apparently been in secret production for a while now, 'cause here's the trailer.



A Link movie? Really?? Somehow, when dreaming of my favorite video games being translated (faithfully) to the big screen, the Zelda franchise doesn't really come to mind. I have an issue with the costume designs; I'm sorry, none of them look great. Link looks weird, perhaps an instance of bad casting, and Ganondorf looks like a darker cross between Ivan Ooze and Gonzo. The trailer did nothing to get me excited about the movie; I'm still kind of just shocked actually. I mean, I'm sure I'll see it but... A Link movie? Really???

Perhaps this is an April Fool's joke?????
