It's probably been done here before, and I might even be on the wrong forum, but nonetheless, a Zelda Trilogy anyone?
If so, CGI or actors?
If actors, then who? (please don't throw orlando bloom/leo di caprio etc and katie holmes/keira knightley etc into casting for Link and Zelda)
I'm just interested to see how many people think what. Was there not a poll on Nintendo's website a few years back trying to assess the demand for a Zelda movie?

CGI would be awful.
If done well, a "real" film would be excellent.

A Zelda movie will probably be done CGI, but actors would be good. Especially if it stars young link.
I can't help it - Zelda is too good :)
Yeah you're right - I really can't see anyone who'd fit the roles. Orlando might have, but he's typecast as Legolas now, plus his voice doesn't suit Link.
And I really can't see anyone playing Zelda either - because she'd have to have ethereal beauty and be noble enough to play a sincere princess. The only person I can think of with that is Aishwarya Rai, but she has dark hair.
Ray Winstone sounds good for Ganon, though
But I would love to see a CG movie based on Ocarina of Time or A Link to the Past, with graphics better than PS3 and XBox 360 put together on their best days :D
As for whether Link should speak or not - I'm not sure. It would be tricky to make a blockbuster if he weren't to speak... right?

Zelda isn't really movie material, but then again Mario wasn't but that didn't stop them having a go (and making a complete balls up in the process).
I can guarantee that if they made it, regardless of actors or CGI, it would absolutely suck.

I'd have actors, but I can't think of anyone who'd play Link.
Link wouldn't talk though, so that means you could cast a crap but good-with-stunts actor and nobody would know the difference.
And I probably wouldn't have a trilogy to save the inevitable comparisons with The Lord of the Rings. Probably a 3 hour epic based loosely around the Twilight Princess world, and taking plotlines from across the Zelda back catalogue.
And you'd explain the deal with the triforce at the beginning.
