Legend of Zelda: The Movie
« on: April 01, 2008, 05:13:15 pm »
So...  It's April 1st and THIS comes out...

http://movies.ign.com/dor/articles/863515/legend-of-zelda-movie-trailer/videos/legendofzelda_filmtrailer_040108.html

i can't tell if it's legit or not.  i mean, it COULD be, but it's being made by an indie company known as "rainfall films". 

i would totally dismiss this as a joke if not for an actual site by rainfall films: http://www.rainfallfilms.com/

the video wasn't quite to the quality of a hollywood film, but it was certainly better than an april fool's joke.

let's see how this unfolds.

I'd bet a lot of money on being fake.

April Fool's jokes these days have to be elaborate anymore or no one falls for them. Both the movie and the Rainfall site are most likely fakes.

I hope they are too. That movie looked terrible.

yeah, it looked pretty rotten. And yes, it is faker than Britney Spears' breasts. The whole "Coming April 1st 2009" really gives it's BS away. Interesting enough to view, anyways.

yeah, i just looked at it a second time, and it has to be 100% fake.  i saw that IGN was included in the credits, plus some of it seemed shoddy...  besides, why would an indie film company obtain the rights to such a lucrative franchise?!

anywho, happy april fools!

I believe Rainfall is an actual company, after exploring that site, but they just made the hoax with IGN as another example of they kind of work they can do.

Video = Hoax
Companies = Real

Ganondorf looks like the "Beast" from X-Men, and the whole thing looks absolutely terrible quality. Quite a good April fools prank though, I gotta admit.

The first though in my mind...

I liked it, wished it was a little better quality, but I'd see it.
