A thread just like this one was made a few months ago...

And just as I said in that thread I think Punch-Out!! and Metroid are two of the best choices as IPs to use in the Movie market.

Smash Bros as a movie



I'd love a sequel to the original Mario bros movie...



Punch out. give it a good story and it can be a great film

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

Video games and movies is a no for me. For series I would like to see Smash, FE anime, Metriod, maybe Zelda

I would want a Zelda trilogy akin to Lord of the Rings set either during the Hylian Civil War or the Imprisoning Wars. Seeing how we do not have a canon game for this era, I would be fine with it being added to the canon timeline if the quality holds up.



Nintendo Switch Friend Code: SW-5643-2927-1984

Animal Crossing NH Dream Address: DA-1078-9916-3261

Metroid directed by Ridley Scott! But keep Lindelof far away from the screenplay.



Isn't a Zelda movie problematic with the whole "Link must always be a silent protagonist" thing?

It would be an interesting thing to try to accomplish making a movie where the main character never talks. Someone might be able to make it work. Reminds me a bit of the Garfunkel and Oates 'Speechless' episode.

I would have thought Metroid would be the most obvious choice for a movie.

That's actually a great idea! I'd love to see what went down in the Imprisoning War!

I think that Wall-e was a great example of a protagonist not talking but still show a great depth of emotion and character development. But I wouldn't mind having Link talk in an eventual movie

 

I see a lot of people are saying that Punch Out would make a great movie, and while I agree I also can't help but to see some resemblance between a such a movie and Rocky, or Creed. How would you differantiate those movies from each other?

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
