I hate this, HATE IT!
I hate it so much I might be changing my cosplay plans for the rest of the year.
Link.... there was a reason why he doesn't speak, so we can be him, experience through him, bond with him. If I see a real live flesh and blood actor portray him and hear him utter one word in some cheezy ass phony English accent I'm gonna hurl. I really don't like the production, direction, and writing styles that are currently en vogue in modern pop culture.
Putting aside the fact that video games do not translate well into live action, this is THE LEGEND of FRIGGIN ZELDA, as far as I'm concerned this could be the only video game!
It will ruin this pure, perfect, one of a kind thing.
I don't care about the possibilities for interaction between the tribes and Hylian folk.
I don't care if it is done "right" in the eyes of many.
I don't care if Netflix is better than Hollywood.
I think Game of Thrones is terrible.
And, I don't need to be reminded of the cartoon from 1989 (which wasn't as bad as everyone makes out from a kid who actually lived in the 80s and watched many cheezy cartoon adaptations such as TLOZ, Ghostbusters, Beetlejuice, TMNT, yes...they were bad, but adorably bad. And let's not pretend TLOZ was this huge universe we have now, I mean we had TLOZ and ZeldaII: The adventure of Link, that's it. No canon, no vast history, I remember that time. I've been playing these games since the beginning.)
I kept waiting all weekend, desperately searching the interwebz for some sign that this was not true, a joake, or a hoax...but it appears this might be legit!
aaaaarrrrrrrrggggghhhhhh!
.....and when I come back I'm going to tell you how I REALLY FEEEL!!!!!!
