I have seen a lot of concept trailers but none come as close to truly delivering a legitimate Legend of Zelda cinematic experience that faithfully translates from the video game to the theatrical with fidelity; until now. This trailer is exceptional.

[@markgreenwildlifeimages]

@@liljon380 yes

[@RaikenXion]

But the problem is it won't stop just here, it will keep "learning" and will eventually veer off into it's OWN thing once it becomes self-aware. All we're doing right now is just feeding it information, of all our favourite, beloved, nostalgic things and it's "serving" us, like a Google search engine, calculating every bit of "Data" you give it, then it throws it all together, in a rather consistent way. But wait until it's truly starts "thinking" for itself, and making it's OWN "choices" and Decisions. We're all content and having fun with it now, but i can see what's lurking round the corner regards this A.I.

more legend (1985) imo

[@NotRegret]

So for people who find the cinemoatrophy in this novel it's based on things like The Ten Commandments and Jason and the Argonauts. Action adventure stuff before the 1960s which were marked by slower pacing, an emphasis on big spectacles rather than fast action, and more static cameras. If you are interested in seeing this stuff it exists, just not with Zelda.

[@Yabuturtle]

I will never understand why nobody has made any attempt to make a movie based on arguably one of the greatest video game series of all time.

You may be able to do so in a few years. Sooner or later there will be AI video filters that accomplish something like that on the fly on PCs. Then some people will make sure that they work well with Zelda being played in an emulator.
