Mario Movie Breaking Records; 5 Day Opening Weekend Set To Beat Frozen 2

Regarding some of their other franchises.

Zelda - I think that would work better as a TV series than a movie. But I have one very important question:
How is a Zelda movie going to work if Link doesn't talk?
At least Mario has actual lines of dialogue and sentences in games here and there as well as other venues like E3 2007 when he roasted Sony. But Link? Total mute. Always has been and likely always will be. They can't rely on grunts, facial expressions, and body language for 2 hours. They COULD try sign language. But again, could they rely on that for 2 hours? And can they even squeeze a Zelda story into 1.5-2 hours? ESPECIALLY if they adapt one of the later, more story driven games like Twilight Princess or Skyward Sword? I think a TV series would suit Zelda much better in that regard because each episode would focus more on each indivdual chapter or section within the overall story, just like they did w/ Last of Us. That way, the focus can be more on the world and people around Link rather than Link himself so you could more easily rely on those grunts, facial expressions, body and/or sign language for 30-45 minutes as opposed to 90-120.

Metroid - Absolutely can work as a movie, animated OR live action. You get the right director, screenwriters, and lead actress for Samus, and that could be an absolute thriller of a film. Each of Samus' adventures can make for the perfect setting for a science fiction/horror film (Especially Fusion and Dread).

Kirby - Well, we already know that can work as a TV show since we already had an anime during the early 2000s. Anyone remember 'Right Back At Ya'? It got 100 episodes. They did it before, they can do it again. A feature film could work as well - though they'd have to work around Kirby's lack of vocabulary as well. They have some popular points of reference to how they could approach Kirby. (Snoopy, Bambi, Gromit, etc.)

Fire Emblem - TV series. Live action OR anime could work. 

Splatoon - Could work as either a TV show or movie. TV show if it's set in modern world of Splatoon and follows a group of kids who get into typical teen drama and they use turf wars to fight it out (Think of an animated Cobra Kai, and that's how I think this would look.) Movie if it takes place during the great turf war.

Animal Crossing - Eh. Either one, I guess.
