All right!  Today is no ordinary day!!

"Puh!  Why not?"  You ask.  "Is it because it's--"

Right there I cut you off together with say, "Yes!!  It's the day that the Legend of Zelda movie has been officially announced (by www.ign.com) together with the first trailer has been released!!"

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

Let me just say:  W... wow.  I am so pumped guys.  Guys I am so pumped.  Nothing could ruin this moment.  Absolutely nothing.

For today I have discovered true love. 

Only Zelda could make me feel this.

Or Malon, maybe.

Love. 

Sweet, sweet love.

Zelda looks like a creepy middleaged LARPer

EDIT: Actually everyone looks creepy and old

Uwe Boll wrote and directed it. That's why Link is already middleaged when Zelda puts him in the Temple of Time. It premieres this Sunday on the Sci-Fi channel.

Uh I thought it was a pretty obvious April Fool's joke (forget bypassing the filter, I don't feel like it) considering it also lists the release date as April 1st, 2009 and the credits show the film is supposedly being made by IGN (who suddenly are in the filmmaking business out of nowhere)

This is either fake or made by a really low-budget company (Uwe Boll, perhaps?).  If it is fake, I have to applaud IGN for putting that much effort into making the trailer.

If you look closely at the credits, IGN is listed in there along with some production company I didn't recognize.

EDIT:
I just came across this:

http://www.rainfallfilms.com/

Looks like the movie might be real, but it is being made on an "economical" budget, whatever that means.

Haha, joke or not... this trailer made me realize that the Legend of Zelda franchise will never work as a film.

Ganondorf's beard was so cool.

Xanqui, I think the site is merely an extension of the April Fools joke.

But it must be the best joke I've ever seen. I loved the monsters, they actually put a lot of
thought and time in this. Not only that, the man who takes link to the city seemed vaguely
familiar. He's actually an actor.

Yeah. This was win.

It's just so awesome how it's like this conglomeration of everything that makes Lord of the Rings so crappy

I mean even if you liked Lord of the Rings it's like if the movie were stripped down to only the dorkisms - like some sort of alternate reality where Peter Jackson never got big and made fan movies in his backyard + blue tarp and entourage of most likely virginal friends

hey did anybody notice how clever my post was

edit: actually maybe it's not as clever if you have a different screen resolution but i think it should still work (huh what the fuck is he talking about)

edit edit: wait no nevermind regardless of screen resolution it works
