Extremely good casting. I have no idea who these actors are. It won't be like hearing Mario thinking "oh that's Chris Pratt." The actors will BE Zelda and Link.

Now we just hope that the movie itself is good, which I'm still not holding my breath for. With Tears of the Kingdom, I am unsure that Nintendo knows why people like Zelda specifically, versus why they might like an open world sandbox game with a neat mechanic. I hope the movie has the quintessential Zelda vibes to it without devolving into nostalgia baiting.

@beardalaxy I'm not expecting this movie to go well. I hope it succeeds, but I have particularly bad feeling about it.

@TrueMasterCole they really should have gone with something close to a ghibli film for Zelda instead, it would have been waaaay more impactful. It wouldn't have made as much money, though. Crossing my fingers it is good but not holding my breath. I'm a massive Zelda fan and the franchise just hasn't been doing it for me lately. It won't be good enough if it's just decent, this thing has to rock my socks off otherwise I can't justify its existence.
