Legend of Zelda Show?

The Legend of Zelda, where everybody says that they are such a fan but call Link Zelda all the time. While yes there are many people who don't understand that the Tri-Force isn't just wisdom, there are some of you who do actually understand this game, and do really enjoy it. Recently, Netflix has released information that they would be interested in making a Live Action Legend of Zelda series. Netflix and Nintendo have been working together on this to make it possible. While yes many fans have been very pleased, how truthful can they make the show without going too far away from the very staggered, very difficult timeline?


If you do not know, Link, the protagonist, is mute through every game (minus a hiya or grunt) so how could they get a mute main character to talk? Netflix says the project should be like "The Game of Thrones" but a more family friendly version of the show. If the show truly follows the game, which it must if it will be any good, the need to figure out the timeline. The game is mostly played in Hyrule, except for Majora's Mask which is located in Termina. So how can they explain all of this.












Each game is very different from the last or the next one to come out after it but they have the same story as most Nintendo games do, save the princess and kill the boss. Seen by the very cool picture above. However that was in Ocarina of Time where Link is a kid so he is forced to sleep for seven years so he could bear the Master Sword. Yet after the game and you defeat Ganondorf, Zelda plays you back to your childhood so you can actually live life. Once you go back, you fall into a tree and that takes you to Termina, how does Nintendo and Netflix play that one off. If you are not aware of Majora's Mask, Link falls into a tree with his horse Epona into Termina where there is a creepy moon that is crashing into the planet and you have three days to save everyone, and when I say creepy moon, I mean creepy moon (right). However spoiler alert, your mission to save Termina fails and Link dies, however, many believe Link dies in the end so that he can train himself in Nintendo Wii's Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword. I don't understand how Netflix and Nintendo plan on executing that one but either way, this fan is ready for the release of a Legend of Zelda Live Action Show.
