Title: Netflix Developing Live Action Zelda Series
Post by: Aero88 on February 07, 2015, 08:47:40 pm: So maybe some of you here have heard? Apparently Netflix is teaming up with Nintendo to make a live action series following the boy in a green tunic. Sounds like it is still a long ways out. What are your thoughts? If it had great writers it might just have a chance, but at the same time I just can't imagine a spin attack ever being cool in a live action series.

I am kind of excited for the thought as long as it is really done with care. It would be very easy to mess it up. Animation would seem a better choice, but maybe it doesn't have to be. Also... Link never says anything in his games other than grunts yells and sighs. Anybody else think it is interesting that Link would finally have a voice?

Also... I think that they will have to go with a somewhat more realistic atmosphere if they are going to pull it off.

Here is an IGN link for your review.

That would seem to be quite a reputable source. Probably for the better. It would be very difficult to make it actually work out in the end. Especially because the fans of the series would undoubtedly pick it to pieces.
