As much as I want this to be good, I have a strong feeling it’s gonna be mid at best. Not a great director, screenwriters aren’t hitting, they have only released two actors names, and the producer is a mixed bag. I’m really hoping they can pull it out… but I’m definitely gonna keep my expectations low.
Of course it’s going to be mid, none of the Zelda games have anything other than a boilerplate storyline except for Majora’s mask. They’ll have to make shit up and that almost never goes well
Legitimately, why do you hope it’s good? Why do you even care? Even if you like the games, this is not part of that. It isn’t interactive. Honestly, I don’t see why it exists, except that certain people will give them their money for any piece of garbage that has an IP they’ve attached themselves to for some reason.
I’m not saying to not enjoy this, or other things. I’m just saying that people mindlessly consuming any slop that has an IP attached is how we ended up in this situation. There’s a lot fewer good and interesting things made, which actually have a hope of being good, because it’s so much safer to make slop with existing IP. Even if it’s bad (it almost always is, because they’re making it purely for profit, not because they care about the IP like you do), it still prints money.
so, even worse than Wheel of Time stuff, then. I don’t really remember the costumes for that but I do remember they weren’t the main problem with the show, aside from being pristine. at least they weren’t low quality
is that show even still on? I don’t think I even made it through the second season because of how goddamn clean everything was. looked fake as shit
I think mid is the best we can hope for. The only way it comes out great is it they go weird with it and tell a story like Majora’s Mask. By all accounts it looks like we’re going to get a Breath of the Wild type story, which is safe and fine but as a film isn’t anything above mid.
I really hope Eiji Aonuma was consulted for this. But nah, Miyamoto will have his whole liver-spotted hand in the pie and the story will be a total afterthought. Another “point-and-oooooh-I-know-that-thing!” movie.

Because I want more things in my life that bring me joy? Seeing something I love from a new perspective sounds like a fun experience?

I am very scared it will look like cosplay.

No, it was cancelled after the third season.
god that was such a disappointment
we could have had something so great
Well, guess what happens when you let amazon of all fucking companies produce a tv adaptation of an influential/cornerstone fantasy book series…
What sucks is they probably own the license now, so no one else can do a better job…

I’m hoping they tell a weird story.
So Mario Movie 2.5 then in terms of quality.
