Zelda News? | Zeldudes Podcast #6

[@Karalora]

In order to feel like Zelda, the movie needs a lot of big sweeping establishing shots of the locations Link travels to. I'm not even joking. The core of Zelda is its world, and the breathtaking wonders of all these exotic fantasy locales. That's not the only thing the film needs, but it is one of the keys.

[@sparktaylor8489]

I agree. I wouldn't be surprised if we straight up get that shot of link looking at the world from atop a high spot like with botw's iconic opening scene and that echoes of wisdom also did in the trailer. I think they need to mix the shots where some are lone moments with minimal noise and music just some nice ambience of a smaller aspect something more artsy you'd see in an independent artsy film. But then have a fair share of these massive shots that grab you by the throat with this epic score that forces you to admire this incredible world. It's the botw opening shot, it's a marvel movie style shot (think cap walking by himself towards Thanos army in endgame) how Mario kart shows off rainbow road or modern open world games are with trailers it's just sweeping shots everywhere trying to give you sensory overload.

[@HaruVibes_]

The Directors recent film Rise of the Planet of Apes does a really great job with world building. It gave me a lot of hope for Zelda.

when are you continuing the lets plays?

[@albertchessaofficial]

Every video my gratitude for the existence of this channel grows

[@ShepherdsCreek]

I NEED Masterworks to talk about link/zelda's house

[@daveglass6008]

"this is the place where zelda likes to hang all her pictures and link likes to eat all his meals"

[@ganonfan]

Being in America, I'm hoping Master Works (Creating a sage) comes out sometime in February near my birthday. Also, for ideas regarding content here, I definitely think a lot more podcasts should be done, especially with guests, because I'm really curious to see what their opinions are on some of the topics you guys bring up. No matter what you guys do here on the channel, I will be happy to just relax and watch two Zelda fans doing Zelda stuff.

[@MegaBlitzGaming]

To go off of what Ed said at 44:42 about 2d and 3d Zelda games. I always call the 2d ones top-down games. Like they mentioned you always look down at the world from the top and even though the new ones have 3d models and areas they still play like classic 2d Zelda games. But since they use all the 3d assets I feel like Top-down is a good term to specify the type of Zelda game.

[@inawoodenhouse]

after seeing what Wes Ball did with Kingdom, how well he continued that franchise and hearing him speak about it in interviews, I have a lot of faith in his ability to make an awesome Zelda movie.

[@n8owen306]

Husky rusty busty old man goes crazy 😂

[@Phoenix_Monroe]

This channel is so inconsistent. Upload every other day then disappear for a month. Come back saying we're back do a few episodes then disappear for a month again. No point in following this channel anymore.

[@HSKY69]

Maybe Luke's pc exploded again🤣

[@Uniclowndaddy]

How's the let's play looking? How we doing on those technical issues, is there an end in sight or will it probably be another month?

[@ropaca]

Hi Zeltik and Zeldamaster! Can you please give us an update about the Let’s Plays? I really liked them, and many with me. :) No pressure, but I just would like to know if they will continue at some point. I really liked the synergy between you two, the little fun facts, the jokes. I hope you Zeldudes are doing well, hope to hear from you soon! X

[@Meryto1]

Guys said they were going to be more open in case they disappeared again, and here we are waiting another 3 weeks for a video again haha. My guess is that something happened to luke’s computer once more

[@Selunei]

I've said it many times but it bears repeating now: in the film, Link and Zelda (at a minimum; preferably Ganon as well) NEED to be played by relative nobodies. They very much SHOULD NOT cast already popular actors for the lead roles, because it would honestly cheapen the film by doing that. Take a look at LotR for example: those movies had a great mix of big names, lesser known but established actors, and relative unknowns, and they ALL killed it. Casting popular actors in the Zelda movie, just for the sake of them being popular, would basically be saying "we have to rely on star power because we don't believe in the film we've made".

[@ELM-Tube]

18:30 I think that in the cutscene for completing all of the games main story similar to the BOTW scene for all the memories you can see the sages lifting the temple into the sky.

[@timh6647]

I hope the internet isn't talking the Tom Holland thing into existence. He would be such a bad choice. Should be Timothy Chalamet or a relatively unknown.

[@andiebee7840]

Noble Pursuit is made in game with Rock Salt, Palm Fruit, Volt Fruit and Hydromelon With this in mind its probably a Pina Colada style drink. I would think it'd be coconut milk, blended with Passionfruit and Ice until smooth and frothy (like a thick slushie). Plop a good portion into a martini glass with its rim salted, then drizzle with some sort of melon liqueur around the frothy portion ; midori is probably the tastier option although it's not the right color, Combier makes a watermelon flavor so that might be your best bet. Garnish with a wedge of passionfruit, citrus peel, mint leaf, and maraschino cherry. Enjoy responsibly? Came up with this on the fly lol

[@hannahw77]

What about Thomas Brodie-Sangster as Link? 🤔

[@lordofuzkulak8308]

33:15 - one concern I have with casting Link (assuming it’s going to be an adult/teen Link film rather than a child Link one) is that they’ll go for an actor that’s tall, ruggedly handsome, stereotypically masculine rather than someone that’s short, lithe, androgynous.

[@Maren.2002]

Yes concern of mine too. I really hope Tom Holland/Timothée Chalamet (or anyone as famous as that) will play Link...

[@Maren.2002]

Maybe you could do a podcast with HyruleGamer? 😊

[@MrsDizarky]

I'm definitely team PO-TA-TOES *boilemmashemstickeminastew* A suggestion for a future discussion topic, which I'm sure you've done at some point, but I'd love for you each to describe the Zelda game you would make if you were in charge of the next major Zelda title! 💚

[@samnelson6509]

When's the next let's play episode?

[@Mossbergg]

Would love for you guys to bring on guests on the podcast and talk Echoes of the Wisdom with!

[@FS_shore]

Walker Scobell who plays Percy Jackson might be a good fit for link. I know some might see him as a “child link” but by the time the movie would be filming, he would be 17 already. Mike Faist from Challengers could’ve worked as well but he’s aged out of the role too

[@carllindseycordell7792]

Can we get back to the lets play plaese??? 🙏🙏

[@FaZeMicroah]

Second I enjoy both your channel and this collab channel

[@SylvesterMcMonkeyMcBean-we6fn]

Unless I missed something, are yall gonna continue putting these on Spotify? Great episode btw, super excited for Master works

[@amandahurley]

Would love a recap video of the games you finish. And a video of you both trying to make a noble pursuit 😂

[@a.jthomas6132]

Since director Wes Bell is planning to incorporate a Miyazaki style (like Princess Mononoke, Howl’s Moving Castle, Spirited Away, etc) to this film , my hope for him, Nintendo & Miyamoto established the relationship between Link x Zelda. They started out at best of friends in the beginning until he lost her. Finding Zelda had become Link’s motive that has nothing to do with saving the world. Then their relationship will evolved them into be lovers as the their journey to save the Kingdom of Hyrule progressed even further. I’m sure fans would appreciate it.

[@seradin8029]

As for Link's casting I actually think Walker Scobell or Thomas Brodie-Sangster would be perfect. Both have a youthful look, the right physique and wouldn't take me out of the immersion of the world like someone like Tom Holland for example, who has played a really popular character which has essentially merged with his image as an actor (when I imagine Tom I immediately think of Spiderman whereas I don't feel like people would have as firm of a connection to Newt or Percy Jackson imo)

[@Maren.2002]

Yes! Great actors too :)

[@jomini14]

I think you guys should get Monster Maze for Four Swords (Adventures)

[@jdawg1034]

Glad you guys are back and will get back into lets plays. I love you guys playing it and talking about at the same time so I hope you do that with Echos of wisdom.

[@amyt37]

Oh Leo would 100% be Peater, the bamboo island guy from Skyward Sword

[@crabbuckets7506]

I just want to see the Twilight again. Won't happen but I can dream.

[@brisky__]

Tears was a great game but definitely had some missed opportunities with the lore, storyline and cutscenes. My biggest wish what they could’ve done is actually make the “spirit temple” and actual temple. 😑 Exploring the depths to find the pieces for the 5th sage did not do its justice at all. Just pure laziness.

[@ShadowWizard224]

Exactly. It’s hard for me to count the spirit temple as an actual temple because it just feels like doing a bunch of chores in different places on the map and by the time you get to the actual temple you automatically do the boss fight.

[@danyx855]

Would love to hear podcasts regarding specific Zelda games, and the games you've beaten so far would be a good order to start on, I'd love to hear you guys talk on Skyward Sword :)

[@taniafontanez9792]

35:24 I completely agree with Zeltik on this one!!! Timothy would do AMAZING! 😍😍😍

[@ELM-Tube]

Nintendo Black Crisis should join if you do the Four Swords video

[@ShepherdsCreek]

I love this style of podcast so I'm glad you're keeping it up.

[@timewarner4]

Are you guys ever gonna to upload again or do you guys hate each other now??

[@joshuajohnson1796]

Love this channel!!

[@shelinkzelda]

Tom Holland is getting a bit older, they'll probably go for an unknown for Link. They'll likely go for someone super duper for big G. My instinct says Gary Oldman, but he's physically a bit twinky too. His intimidation is usually delivered through his being utterly unhinged. I wonder if Jason Momoa could do it? He's huge. Physically and fame wise.

[@BruceBoyde]

I would love to see the true Four Swords experience. I played it with my sister and cousins back in the day - four GBAs linked up to the cube, absolutely destroying AA batteries.

[@rebeccahannah117]

I really miss the videos. I know you guys are busy with your lives, but I think an update would be nice. I just hope that you guys are doing okay and will come back soon! 😭

[@smugcat723]

Motion capture for Zoras and Gorons would make the most sense

[@SpencerDrummer]

To actually satisfy us fans, link should be played by an actor everyone hardly knows. It gets so old seeing the same people. I’d hate it if they chose Tom holland, no disrespect to him but that’s a terrible choice in my opinion. Mo-cap would have been the best possible choice and I hope they lean towards that more. In my minds eye, a very similar look to breathe of the wild/tears visually, with a plot leaning more towards ocarina of time. That would be the best case scenario. Hiring some dude with a wig and frolicking around in the hills of New Zealand is going to suck ass if they do that 🤣🤣🤷🏼‍♂️

[@shelinkzelda]

Considering how fast and screamingly we all ran from Gloom Hands, are you SURE you want the eldritch designs to make it into a game? 😂 Trauma of a generation ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ

[@tyedupinsmokestacey2935]

Alright fellas I have a video suggestion and it will make all of my dignity leave. Zeldudes “smash or pass” all Zelda bosses, it’s a shameless rip of markipliers Pokémon vid but it would be fun

[@matraclm5422]

Good job, Zeldudes have quickly become my fave Zelda content on KZbin 👍 I think the fans will all grapple with some form of discontent in the lead actor choice for Link. When I play, my Link stealths, thinks problems through, solves issues and find new ways... but when my husband plays, his Link is couageous, he runs towards danger, fights first and questions things later. Deciding on slapping a definitive label for Link will be a hard decision for them, I think.

[@orlandomota6685]

This channel is great! This format is all we need 🙌🏾

[@hyrumstephens2002]

Would be so cool to have a more intense zelda game like you were saying with the guardians and elden ring. That vibe with the Nintendo magic would go crazyyyyyy

[@geocobra9]

I agree with Zeltik on Chalamet. I hadn’t thought of it before but now I can’t unsee it! Agree on his features and the Dune 2 scene he talks about. Cheers 🗡️🛡️

[@FromJonas]

IGN's interview with Owen Teague revealed that Wes Ball told him "too bad you're too old to play Link". Teague is 25 years old. I guess they're looking for actors under 24.

[@hyruleanhermit]

In the area where y'all talk about the lore and if Nintendo cared to make it, I do feel they care about it, but I do feel they rushed it a lot with like the temples (like the ending of them) and also just trying to fill up the over world, depths, and trying to figure out the sky. And I say this because they spent so much time working on the hand abilities and making the gliding/falling mechanic. The story it does have is good of course, just it did become rushed unfortunately

[@lordofuzkulak8308]

1:05:32 - not an idea for podcast topics persay, but how about a segment at the end of each podcast going over/responding to your favourite comments from the previous podcast? Doesn’t half to be long, just fifteen minutes would be good.

[@weizhang9671]

Luke：Always endless complain about TOTK.

[@lordofuzkulak8308]

37:04 - it’s Zelda, obviously a washed up Link would drown his sorrows in bottle after bottle of Lonlon Milk. 😜

[@shelinkzelda]

😂😂😂 Chris Pratt is the most normal boring....😂😂😂 Unintentionally savage 😂😂😂

[@PixelatedTori]

An amazing plot twist for Echoes of Wisdom would be Zelda having to defend herself against evil Link and creating a shadow Link to help eventually defeat Ganon

[@iCrowLink]

Idk why they don't just release the book worldwide. Fans are gonna translate it anyway, so some people are not gonna buy it if it's translated and available for free online. Seems like an easy way to make more money if you just release it worldwide. 😂

[@shelinkzelda]

Even though I can't yet read Japanese, I have, in fact, managed to pre-order one. I cancelled my Lego to pay for that and the other things.

[@OakBlu]

As far as guests go there's an up in comming youtuber who just put out a banger video of tears of the kingdom called SkittyBitty, I think thatd be interesting. Other than that, elden ring has a ton of crossover with zelda, would be cool to see you guys collab with BanditGames

[@iluvphillip13]

Master Works books? I'm sorry to say I don't specifically remember hearing of these. I've never delved deep into game lore before running across Zeltik (and then ZM). I would love to see video podcasts of these from you! If either of you have already done some, will you -- or a knowledgeable fan who reads this -- drop me a link to it/them? Sounds truly fascinating, from the artwork to the lore!

Hey guys, I have a good idea for a series you guys could do! I was thinking you could do a randomizer race between the two of you for any Zelda game (probably ocarina of time cuz yeah). That would be so entertaining plus both of you would be playing so 🤷‍♂️

[@iCrowLink]

Zelda wasn't involved in the raising of the Great Sky Island, the sages did it after Zelda became the Light Dragon. You can see them raising it in the last memory.

[@annamae4761]

I’m glad I’m not the only Sonic fan that isn’t into the new movies. Honestly I just stick to game cutscenes for my kids. All the official Sonic cartoon shorts on their KZbin that promote each new game are on a playlist my kid dig😁 Although my kids do love Sonic X as well thanks to a gma video cartridge with the first two episodes.

I love that this is a Zelda podcast, but I almost would rather if you guys just had a more broad gaming podcast where you can gush about Elden Ring and any other games you are enjoying or from your childhood

[@drewsteroni6440]

I’m replaying twilight princess hd and just beat the sky dungeon. Playing the older Zelda games makes it hard to play botw and totk.. you just notice there’s something missing in those games and oddly enough i think botw is better than totk
