CGI Animated Short Film HD "Majora’s Mask - Terrible Fate " by EmberLab | CGMeetup

[@somedude1561]

You know what most impresses me about this clip The fact that they managed to make the Happy Mask Salesman not creepy yet still spot on

[@yogaflame4128]

Mental Midget he was creepy cuz A) he smiled like an ancient Asian pedophile B) he glitches around while you talk to him C) his facial expression go from happy to evil instantly This version only ticked A)

[@Salterisks]

Indi Genius Is that really what he does? I've never played Majora simply bc ive never had the chance/ability (dont hve the console it's on) and always seen him as creepy yet never known why. My biggest question is: What do you mean by "glitches around when you talk to him" bc thats hella creepy

[@sheevpalpatine1105]

@@Salterisks probably when you talk to him in a rather small room in one shot he somehow gets a giant organ out of nowhere and in the next shot it's gone again

[@yogaflame4128]

GhostlyGay As Thomas S. Explains it best. I’m not sure if the game was designed that way purposely but it’s really weird he moves around while you speak to him. Whenever you press “A” to move through the dialogue he just appears somewhere else. One minute hands up, next he’s taking a shit, next he’s driving a car 🚗..(jk) but it’s no continuity in his movements, he’s kinda all over the place.

[@PepeTheJonkler]

Keep in mind, at the very end of Majora's Mask this man literally vanishes like a ghost. Sooo... Something's a bit off about the "Happy" Mask Salesman. By the way, he happens to wear the garb of the tribe that happened to create Majora, the forgotten ones mentioned in OOT that betrayed the Royal Family and left Hyrule within ruin. He broke into the Shadow Temple and stole the mask before fleeing Hyrule to swap timelines to Termina, as he somehow manages to escape the banishment. Purple garb, the eyes, pointy ears, mysterious... He's one of the Fallen Sheikah, the same as Vaati, the ones who held the missing central piece to the Triforce (which, when completed, is the Tetraforce). Ganondorf then rises to power before he flees Hyrule Castle Town's Destruction for Termina's Destruction. He wanted the mask for his people, knowing the great power that it held. When he regains the mask, he's able to then swap realms again. Kiiiiinda terrifying. Definitely would suggest researching the Sheikah Lore, especially the Sheikah Eye itself, which happens to be represented via the Mask/Lens of Truth. The eye symbolizes the search for truth, the missing piece. The tear below symbolizes great loss and sadness at their betrayals and subsequent punishment of servitude by the Royal Family, a constant reminder to never let it happen again. With great power comes great responsibility, and the Sheikah have held more power through LOZ than most heroes or villains. They're always calling the shots if you look closely, especially in regards to Zelda and Link through the timelines.

[@shawnhenderson2091]

We all know deep down they'll adapt Zelda and try to make it light hearted and silly and appeal to the youngest generation, ignoring the 30+ years worth of cultivated audience they've created who quite clearly want a Zelda with this tone to it. Have you checked out any of MajorLink's work? His stuff is incredible too. More like a recreation of the video game than a movie, but still worth watching - his stuff give me goosebumps every time I watch, especially the Twilight Princess ones.

An animated Zelda movie better not have that quirky family friendly humor though. It's time for America to stop associating animated movies with high energy goofy romps. A Zelda movie would not work with the same style as the Mario movie. I hope they realize that, but I doubt it.

@@josephjoe4180 I completely agree. Ive grown tired of the "happy" movies that have very little to no depth of seriousness, a lot is due to the MCU, and id hope, in the best case scenario, they would have a more serious tone with the Zelda movie, especially because some of the games, in the story/lore, are actually really dark.

to play devil's advocate for a second, this was almost certainly made during free time as a hobby project, and those projects get done when they're done. despite having a lot of money behind them, professional movies have to abide by a schedule for a lot of reasons, so it's rare to see a CG movie that looks about as good as it possibly could have looked for the time it was made. no matter how much money you throw at a project, in many ways, it cannot replace time.

[@TheXeroLink]

If anyone makes a Majora movie it HAS to be dark.

[@Yet_AGOTI-2]

While this was a while ago, I also want to point out how it's framed the same way as Link's mask transformations, but drawn out. Even the gasps are similar. "Eugh-eh Eugh-eh, Eahhhhhh!" When Link puts on any of the three main transformation masks for the first time, there's a longer pause here between the first two gasps and the final scream as he collapses (presumably because this was more of a contest of wills while Link's were voluntary-yet-no-less-horrifying. The final frame and pose are the same, though. Really neat homage in an already great animation. It almost makes it feel as if all of Termina - including the masks and how they work, were made by the mask itself in the canon of this animation.

[@theknightikins9397]

Of all the Zelda games, I think Majora’s Mask would be the best suited for a film adaptation. This proves it. It isn’t really up for debate that this game has some of the most well fleshed out characters in the whole franchise. It balances the line between whimsical fantasy and sheer terror like the other games just don’t do as well. The characters all have their own motives and personalities yet leave a lot for addition of needed. There is just so much. The fact that this was made for a KZbin short film is almost insulting. This belongs in a museum. It is astonishingly beautiful and captures exactly the emotions the game wanted to tell. The movie wouldn’t work as live action though. This is why. There is something about the cartoon aspect of Zelda, especially Majora’s Mask, that blends with the darker aspects that can’t be recreated in live action. Incredible work is an understatement. The fact that this isn’t in theaters is sad. Then again, at this level of quality, it would take years to complete.

[@fulcibanana7459]

“Then again, at this level of quality, it would take years to complete.” I’ve got some news for you about movies: they all do.

[@coyraig8332]

I'm thinking more of a Samurai Jack style mini-series so we can follow Link doing more than the main story. They should definitely still cut some stuff like the mask kids on the moon but the masks themselves could be collected as part of a darkest hour as Link has to come to terms with not being able to save everyone.

I could never accomplish even minute of what they've done.

[@DragoonZell]

In the manga it portrays the mask traveler as literally going way out of his way to find this mask even though he knew the consequences of obtaining this mask then when he went through the woods it's almost like he brought it upon himself and the skull kid got a hold of it....in the end when Link was still in his Fierce Deity form he tried to cut the mask salesman's head off saying "Beat it, Trouble maker" (seriously Fierce is putting it mildly)

[@archielink3048]

... yeah... the mask wasn't as predictable as one might think... and the mask salesman wasn't as kind as he's portrayed... but the skull kid... was literally a puppet in the clutches of an ill tempered being... it isn't a happy tale... but the outcome is still up for debate, concerning Link... hopefully no one will jump to conclusions... after all, they're not yet acquainted with his inventiveness, nor with the issue of him making some of the possibilities able to be done... he did actually speak for himself... it's just not said in the game... and he made his own devices when necessary, for the next need during battle, and to get places for instance that weren't reachable for the moment... someone simply kept taking Zelda, and they kept saving her repeatedly... at first...

@@lordshivonski6149 if you crazy people think you can somehow make a coherent 2 hour movie out of a game that has multiple divergent plot threads and time travel, you're out of your mind. Even if you only focused on the bare bones story of finding 4 giant men to catch the moon and end the apocalypse, depending on how you look at there's simultaneously too much and too little information. Focus only on link, a little boy who never talks and has a borderline imaginary friend who follows him around while he moves blocks around to open doors and fight a context-less monster. Or you bring in all the other characters who merely exist to guide you to this goal, and on their own aren't really interesting at all. The handful of side characters that could be considered interesting are largely irrelevant to the story, like kafe, malon, the zora singer, others i'm forgetting off the top of my head. Most of the people that would want a movie are just thinking of seeing link fight the skull kid on some cool set-piece, while giving no thought on how you would actually end up there in a satisfying way ie most of the movie.

This is incredible. I usually don't like this kind of CGI heavy fanart, but here, not only the look of everything is incredible and absolutely stunning, but the lights, the pace, the animation, the editing (both visual and audio), the visual choices, any single storytelling tool is sharp as it can be. The cut at 0:47/0:48, the beak mask (I can't recall if that was a Nintendo idea to begin with), the unfocused/lovecraftian shot at 3:11, the way he pulls away his hand at 3:32. If I had to nitpick, I think that the Happy Mask Salesman it's a little too much 'human' when in the game has a creepy feeling, but I understand this choice in the context of this specific work. I wish Nintendo could hire the team behind this and start a movie or a tv show.

El Universo de Dave Kranz the biggest problems with game movies is that they can only bring a linear experience while games do the exact opposite. Games give you freedom to make out your actions and do what you want, while a movie is just a scripted character. The legend of Zelda wouldn't be a good game to turn into a movie, because link is a projection of the player character, and that's a huge problem for directors because that means you have to create a character that everyone can relate to, EVERYONE. Game movies without the protagonist I don't see much of a problem with, albeit new characters would have to be introduced and characters would have to be filled in more in order to work.

[@r3tr064m3r]

*Krampus_510* I think when the OP says "newest engine" that is referring to what the hypothetical Majora's Mask remake would be like if it was done on a modified version of the Breath of the Wild engine, with a similar art style (a blend of cartoon art and realism). I don't think they are suggesting a game that would feature gameplay that matches the quality of the footage in this trailer. Although that would, in fact, be amazing, I assume they understand the natural limitations that would be necessary to keep development of such a game within a reasonable timeframe. Although, I will say that with the Legend of Zelda series, Nintendo clearly prefers to spend the time needed to get the games right, as demonstrated both by the six years they spent developing Breath of the Wild, and the overwhelmingly impressive end result.

Sky Rasmus I agree they tried to do this with the 3ds version but they fucked up by changing things in game we want the same game with better graphics

Pedro Gonzalez they didn't ruin anything. The things that they changed were actually major inprovements like the owl statues saving so that you could get off quicker when you have to go to dinner, and the bomber's notebook being more useful with detailed schedules and better quest descriptions. In my book, they didn't really change anything, just added fetueres that would enhance the gameplay. Majora's mask on N64 had to be made in 6 mounths.

Majoras Mask is a dark game.

If anyone is allowed to make a Zelda movie it's these guys

[@arbbr9397]

i really really liked the addition of those tentacle things coming out of the mask, it shows how its actually binding to the skull kid and how it controls him like a parasite. more emphasis on that e.g. seeing those tentacles suddenly move rapidly towards him, also when he screams and it pans out i would add some head tilt twitching to further emphasise that although powerful, it is still very chaotic and uncontrolled and just fuckin creepy.

[@CodenameBolts]

The part with Skull Kid screaming is super reminiscent of Link transforming into a Deku Scrub, Goron or Zora.

[@nitrofochv2185]

This CGI makes me sad. I hope that that Little ent had an happy ending in some zelda games

[@VeshSneaks]

⁠​⁠@@frankgrimes7388it’s a cool visual call back to the boss fight against the mask, where it has those same tentacles, so it definitely has something to do with the lore. It’s also a visual metaphor to show the mask taking control over skull kid. Nothing stupid about the approach in this short. Show, don’t tell.

Did people hear that the people who made this are making a ps5 title called Kena: Bridge of Spirits? Glad they're getting the recognition they deserve.

It's by Theophany, look him up, he has released 2 incredible albums of Majora's Mask's music and is going to release a third one some time. Some of the best music I've ever heard, he's a musical genius.
