Well, there are very few details, but...

[EDIT] Here's hoping this doesn't turn into a discussion about what Nintendo should really do with a movie based on Zelda...

Ah, I had heard IGN's was really something this year.

And I have to say, I do like backgrounds and monsters.

It had a nice budget for a 3 minute short. I was really impressed with everything except Ganondorf and Link's hat. Sure it looks like a low-budget flick, but I'd love to see a low-budget flick that has actors and dialogue like *that*. :)'

Very Lord of the Rings-like. I'd watch that.
I'm officially retired from beta testing, and resign my duties to those who have the time to do it.

It's epic. The bit with Link's father(?) telling him to say nothing was great.

It seems this is unrelated to the fan-made movie that is supposedly still in development...

There was that really good 3 or so minute short CGI movie, where Link fights Ganondorf. That was a gem. I first saw it on google video and nearly wet myself.

EDIT: It's 6 minutes...

The web site has it mucho better quality, but it's a huge file size.

Link, Ganondorf and Malon/Ilia (?) were okay, though the first two need better make up (Link's hair and Ganondorf's beard had me laughing for minutes after it was over).
"Zelda" though, didn't quite seem fit for the part to me. Maybe that actress could have been better cast as Ilia. Dunno. Just did not seem the right face, ya know?
And the idea of Zelda wearing armor like Ivy from Soul Calibur to go into battle makes me cring down to the deepest part of my soul. Or wait, is that supposed to be Impa? I can't tell if it's another actress, they only briefly flash her.
[Further Edit] I take this back. I see she has her own place on the poster so it must be a separate charcter from Zelda. My bad for not realizing this.

Since you got me talking, I would also add this is the perfect example of how they'd inevitably mess up a Zelda movie: OoT plot with TP setting/enemies (and Twilight enshrouding the castle even?) and at least one ALttP major character (Sahasrahla)?
Riiight. No thanks.

As for Dark Sage... you thought that was good? I only appreciated some neat ideas for background designs out of it.

Oh God... I figured that out just now. A joke within the joke, telling Link to say nothing... :rotflmho:

My Viewpoints
 
"Nothing you can say will ever convince me that the Zelda, Link & Impa of OOTURA, ALTTPGBA, SC2, BSLOZ, & OOX are different characters, or that Link isn't part Kokiri, FOR SOME Zelda Universes and that the mangas aren't canon FOR SOME alternate realities."

Yay... Even if I do notlike the looking of Link and Ganondorf as well (Zelda matches my imagination), I do not think this is a complete april joke. You see, just making such a trailor will cost some thousands of dollars... we may expect a real zelda movie soon (hopefully :) )

I don't know... it's not that hard to make a trailer like that without spending more than a couple hundred dollars. Some of those scenes seemed ripped out of movies and other seemed to be just CGIed.

Stuff that looks hollywood-quality isn't necessarily that difficult to do anymore...

Just that it's funnier to make things look purposely bad. (Light of Courage?)
