A couple of days ago, I hopped over to IGN.com to see what news was coming out of the video game world. When I got there, I saw what appeared to be a very official trailer for a “The Legend of Zelda” movie!  I clicked on the link, and watched with anticipation.  The acting in the trailer was so-so, the special effects were even cheesier, and all-in-all it wreaked of a higher-end fanboy trailer.  With my suspicions now peaked, I jumped onto IMDB to search for any signs of a real “Legend of Zelda” movie, but nothing turned up.  So, I went back and looked closer at the IGN site, only to discover that the entire trailer was their brilliant idea of an “April Fool’s” joke!

While the “Fake” trailer is actually quite good for what it is, I think it would work fantastic as a spec trailer to get an actual Zelda film made.  And with the amazing fan base that the video game has acquired over the past couple of decades, I don’t think they would have any trouble making money in the box office.   I’ll put my bid in and say that if they go ahead with a movie like this, I’ll be behind it 110% (as if that actually meant anything…hehe)!

After you watch the trailer, you have to watch the behind the scenes clip that accompanies it, I think it’s actually better than the trailer itself:

Who’s with me on having them do this for real?

There are few actors in Hollywood that I consider to be truly “archaic”, and Charlton Heston was one of them. I was truly saddened when I heard the news this past weekend of his passing as most of us were. I’ve been thinking all day as to what I would write in this post honoring this great actor, but instead of words, I figured this video tribute to him would do a much better job.

Charlton will be greatly missed!
