I don't think I can forgive this one if it's anything less than Oscar-winning.

Those are my expectations, but I have no excitement because it's probably impossible.

The most badass/high-concept-artistic thing the director could do with this movie is to have Link never speak.

ninety minutes of action adventure about the first quest

in the last minute, right after Ganon is defeated, the king turns to Link and asks "and what shall we call you, hero?"

pan to Link, dolly to close-up, he opens his mouth... cut to hard black

I liked when Zelda magically switched genders back and forth as Sheik in Ocarina of Time, but in a non-Woke way

This has such a high chance of being a fun but forgettable mass audience generic fantasy. I don't think any Zelda game had a incredible story, it was basic evil darkness takes over world and must be stopped by unlikely hero. They all had amazing atmosphere though. Would be great to see it take more of an art house cinema style like The Green Knight, but I doubt that will happen.
