    Uh, given the recent spate of … Nintendo movies… and fantasy shows… and the fact that Link is a silent protagonist (aside of basically grunts and exclamations of various emotional tones)…

    I really don’t see any possible way this could be good.

    Brought to you by the director of ‘Maze Runner’, which currently has ~66% critic and user review score on Rotten Tomatoes.

      Now you are going to start a nerdy discussion whether Link really can’t talk, doesn’t want or like to talk or does indeed talk, even though not directly shown usually in the games.

      There is plenty of reason to assume that he actually can talk fine, it was just omitted for convenience or immersion in the games. It was implied often by the dialogues thoughout various games.

      Official mangas show him talking, dialogue options, or that e.g. Zelda learns Links name when asking him in OoT imply this as well.

      I actually liked maze runner (the first one), and I don’t think the director was the problem(s) with it more than the story and a few of the actors were

      But yeah no shot a Zelda movie is decent
