I can see a triligy, with the first one about him as a kid, the second on his quest, and the third the ending. I am suspect on the whole idea though, but being a Zelda fan, I'd watch.

Yes, I've thought about this before.  Zelda is LONG OVERDUE for a movie.  It really is a great, great story.  They should do it live action, though, no animation. 

If they did it live action, people who aren't into video games would probably brush it off as another Lord of the Rings rip-off.

That's not true.  The entire fantasy genre isn't represented by the Lord of the Rings.  To believe that would be to say that you can never make a fantasy themed movie without ripping them off... or you could never make a horror movie without ripping off Friday the 13th, or never make a comedy without ripping off Police Academy or something.  Bullshit.

This movie would have so much potential.

The movie starts in a little village where this little boy is playing and you're introduced to his family, he's about 11.  

That night, he has a strange dream about a princess locked up being held captive, and wakes up to find his grandfather missing, and it pouring down the rain.  He runs out into the darkness, and heads for the castle nearby... after hiding from the guards, he notices a tunnel off to the side, and a light coming from within.   He hurries down, and finds his grandfather lying hurt on the ground, his grandfather gives him a sword, and tells him this story of where the sword came from, who he is, and of this evil wizard named Ganondorph...  His grandfather dies, and young link drags the sword behind him on the cobblestone path, only to be discovered by a strange pig creature with a pitchfork looking weapon.  The pig starts running at him, and Link, frightened, picks the sword up with both hands, and swings it frantically... the sword glows bright yellow and swings light as a feather in a perfect circle, striking the beast with a loud "skkkkaaaaatttttcccckkkkk"... the beast lets out a muffled scream, as his body vaporizes into a cloud of mist, and dirt, dust, and a small bag fall to the ground.  Link opens the bag to find a shimmering red ruby, which he places in his pouch... frightened, he ducks in a back door, to find a huge bridge with another creature walking across, guarding it... mustering all his courage, he sneaks up behind the beast, kills it, stops to grab the green ruby left behind, and the hurries across the bridge.  Once across the bridge, he finds a huge stone slab, which has been slid to one side... peeking through, he sees candlelight.  He ducks through the crack, and finds himself standing in the back of a sanctuary, with an old priest standing near the pulpit, deep in thought.  

Blah ... Blah... Blah Blah Blah.  This movie has HUGE potential.

If they did, I would rent it.

why? why no watch it in the movies?

Because I don't like to waste money

dont get smart with me boy....
naw jk

but if they made the movie like lord of the rings i would definently see it in the theatre just imagein how bad ass that would be...

If they did that then cool, but I doubt it. Lord of the Rings is an novel and Zelda is just a video game. They would find some retarded stoned dude to write the story and it would suck.

i dont think it would be a good trilogy, because those are getting played out and its too much like lord of the rings.  if they made one 2 hour movie which would be a combo of Lord of the rings and Indiana Jones it would be dope.  they would have to make it a good story though. peace.

I dont know about making Zelda into movies , it could easily be a hit or miss matter . It would depend on who wrote the scripts and who directed it . It`s the same thing with voice-acting in zelda games , it could be dope , but it could also ruin our vision of Zelda . Btw , here is a link to the trailer for the new Zelda game to Nintendo Gamecube ( probably the coolest graphics I have ever seen , it looks sooooo awesome ! )

Check that shit out !!!

I say go Ocarina of time -> Wind Waker like when they released wind waker, I love that story but also a link to the past had a bad ass story line too all would make great films

or...

they could do The Legend of Zelda and the Adventures of Link where he must form the triforce. 


The cult following of Zelda alone will bring in cash and if it is a good movie tehn its a goldmine franchise.
