Episode 292 - A Live-Action Zelda Movie Is Happening: Our Thoughts and Reactions

After Nintendo dropped the tweet heard 'round the world ("This is Miyamoto") confirming that a live-action Legend of Zelda movie was due to enter pre-production soon, the Zelda community has been ablaze with all sorts of reactions, positive and negative, discussing what fans want from this adaptation. Filling in for Al this week is Virtual Theater's Gooey Fame, and the gang discuss a whole bevy of topics, including: our initial thoughts at the announcement; if we prefer live-action to animation; what the worst case and best case scenarios would be; if certain casting choices making the rumor mill could be credible or not; our thoughts on both the director and writer's other projects; what basic elements from the games should be included; our ideas on why this movie won't adapt one particular game; the future of the franchise, and so much more!
