MODERATORS
People seem to be confused about why they thought this is a good idea, but to me this is expected.
I don't follow what Miyamoto does much, but based on what I heard (like Chris Pratt Mario...) I feel he's a showoff who probably wants ANY live-action movie of a Nintendo IP because it'd be cool. Zelda is the best one to qualify, maybe Metroid or Xenoblade (both of which are way less popular). They even tried more realism back with Twilight Princess.
I actually expect it'll be more or less like the Mario movie again, an unimpressive but solid success.
I would love a Metroid film, but one that takes its cues from Moon where Samus is basically alone, but she has some kind of JARVIS-like companion with which to speak. Just big, abandoned spaces, punctuated by action set pieces.
He already got that decades ago tho...
He (or anyone from the Japan branch, I think) didn't have anything to do with the last one, so it didn't matter. It's only recently that he started getting interested.
