Better quality than most movies which is strange.
better than my life choices
Well god damn said.
the forest was real life footage btw... the rest is cg
Barrington The camera they used was over 60k lol in USD
probably because it's a SHORT film so you can make it higher quality
now *THAT* is how you introduce a villain
Alejandro Silva true dat
THIS should have been the commercial for the game
Alejandro Silva this animation probably took ages to make...but I think the depiction of the mask traveler is a bit off, it doesn't match how we see him in the actual game, but, it would be impossible to depict him in this without a tiny bit of personality changes, gotta congratulate them for it anyways. I could never accomplish even minute of what they've done.
In the manga it portrays the mask traveler as literally going way out of his way to find this mask even though he knew the consequences of obtaining this mask then when he went through the woods it's almost like he brought it upon himself and the skull kid got a hold of it....in the end when Link was still in his Fierce Deity form he tried to cut the mask salesman's head off saying "Beat it, Trouble maker" (seriously Fierce is putting it mildly)
... yeah... the mask wasn't as predictable as one might think... and the mask salesman wasn't as kind as he's portrayed... but the skull kid... was literally a puppet in the clutches of an ill tempered being... it isn't a happy tale... but the outcome is still up for debate, concerning Link... hopefully no one will jump to conclusions... after all, they're not yet acquainted with his inventiveness, nor with the issue of him making some of the possibilities able to be done... he did actually speak for himself... it's just not said in the game... and he made his own devices when necessary, for the next need during battle, and to get places for instance that weren't reachable for the moment... someone simply kept taking Zelda, and they kept saving her repeatedly... at first...
5 years later and this still looks absolutely phenomenal
As if 5 years was gonna change how we view it? This will never not look amazing. Graphics get better over time, style is forever
5 years later is barley any time at all lol
6 years later, just discovered it. Still awesome!
Hate that ice temple
Literally yes. I mean, I watched it couple years back not sure when but I stumbled across it today and just WOW lol
I could honestly probably watch it 10 times back to back and each time the experience would be like the first time seeing it. That's just me tho haha
Absolutely love this and wish they'd do more.
We honestly need a full movie. After Super Mario Bros, Nintendo should really hire these guys and make a full Legend of Zelda movie. This is just incredible
How about taking what remains of Imagi Studios, including some random Imagi Studios veterans, would help make a comeback for Imagi Studios in the years to come.
A zelda movie would be epic
We all know deep down they'll adapt Zelda and try to make it light hearted and silly and appeal to the youngest generation, ignoring the 30+ years worth of cultivated audience they've created who quite clearly want a Zelda with this tone to it. Have you checked out any of MajorLink's work? His stuff is incredible too. More like a recreation of the video game than a movie, but still worth watching - his stuff give me goosebumps every time I watch, especially the Twilight Princess ones.
@@shawnhenderson2091 I think *Imagi Studios* styled *Zelda* might go balanced, like with *TMNT* (more on the dark-dramatic side) and *Astro Boy* (more on the light-hearted side). It's not gonna be taken too seriously like *Gatchaman* and *T28* (I know they are canceled), but it won't be too silly like *Cat Tale* either.
What are u guys talking about. Legend of zelda already confirmed. Illumination starting the NCU bring all Nintendo characters there stand alone movie all leading to its avengers endgame. Aka super smash broa
You know what most impresses me about this clip
The fact that they managed to make the Happy Mask Salesman not creepy yet still spot on
Mental Midget he was creepy cuz
A) he smiled like an ancient Asian pedophile
B) he glitches around while you talk to him
C) his facial expression go from happy to evil instantly
This version only ticked A)
Indi Genius Is that really what he does? I've never played Majora simply bc ive never had the chance/ability (dont hve the console it's on) and always seen him as creepy yet never known why. My biggest question is: What do you mean by "glitches around when you talk to him" bc thats hella creepy
@@Salterisks probably when you talk to him in a rather small room in one shot he somehow gets a giant organ out of nowhere and in the next shot it's gone again
GhostlyGay As Thomas S. Explains it best. I’m not sure if the game was designed that way purposely but it’s really weird he moves around while you speak to him. Whenever you press “A” to move through the dialogue he just appears somewhere else. One minute hands up, next he’s taking a shit, next he’s driving a car 🚗..(jk) but it’s no continuity in his movements, he’s kinda all over the place.
Keep in mind, at the very end of Majora's Mask this man literally vanishes like a ghost. Sooo... Something's a bit off about the "Happy" Mask Salesman.
By the way, he happens to wear the garb of the tribe that happened to create Majora, the forgotten ones mentioned in OOT that betrayed the Royal Family and left Hyrule within ruin.
He broke into the Shadow Temple and stole the mask before fleeing Hyrule to swap timelines to Termina, as he somehow manages to escape the banishment. Purple garb, the eyes, pointy ears, mysterious... He's one of the Fallen Sheikah, the same as Vaati, the ones who held the missing central piece to the Triforce (which, when completed, is the Tetraforce). Ganondorf then rises to power before he flees Hyrule Castle Town's Destruction for Termina's Destruction.
He wanted the mask for his people, knowing the great power that it held.
When he regains the mask, he's able to then swap realms again. Kiiiiinda terrifying.
Definitely would suggest researching the Sheikah Lore, especially the Sheikah Eye itself, which happens to be represented via the Mask/Lens of Truth.
The eye symbolizes the search for truth, the missing piece. The tear below symbolizes great loss and sadness at their betrayals and subsequent punishment of servitude by the Royal Family, a constant reminder to never let it happen again.
With great power comes great responsibility, and the Sheikah have held more power through LOZ than most heroes or villains. They're always calling the shots if you look closely, especially in regards to Zelda and Link through the timelines.
"You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?" Yes, yes I have. It's been 3 years and still nothing to follow up with this masterpiece.
I just found this...and it's beautiful
Ikr!!!
Let's crowdfund it
They should do an movie
??? botw ???
can we just talk about how they somehow managed to make the happy mask salesman look...relatively normal?
No
Honestly, i wanted him creepy as he was in Majora's, that's the "charm" of the character
Mommy I’m scared
@@tark1177 Yeah, when I first saw this I was like "Da hail? He looks like he has emotion and compassion for others. He, he's smiling legitimately."
@@tark1177 he sounds creepy at the end, but seems normal at the beginning. I don’t really get it.
It is an absolute crime that Majora's Mask hasn't been made into a movie with these folks animating it.... simply stunning!
@@frankgrimes7388 or Yknow an improvement on the series.
@@thatoneguy9976 Some stories are better told in videogames, such as some stories are better told in animation or in live action.
@@ashyunderscore Majora's Mask is one that could easily be made into a really good movie if the people who make it care
@@gabe5120 A lot of MM relies on the player's choice on when to go back in time and if they should or not yet, and what they choose to do within that time frame, so I wholeheartedly digress.
@@ashyunderscore every game relies on players choices it's the story that I'm talking about 🙃
I still remember when Nintendo of America liked this video.
Airsh Bornely did they unlike it?
@@hugono3938 he bullshitter
WHAT?
This was like 3 years ago. Smh. There's even articles about this.
Airsh Bornely but it’s good
I wish I hadnt seen this. ‘Cause now I’m left with a crippling hole that can only be filled by a fully animated movie.
Definantly
With the Mario movie proving how profitable a huge Nintendo movie can be, we really need to see a Zelda movie with this style and tone. It would be spectacular.
This would be amazing haha
The movie was already in production before the super Mario bros movie hit theaters, its close to being done with the base editing/CGI and im certain will start early test screenings in the upcoming months.
An animated Zelda movie better not have that quirky family friendly humor though. It's time for America to stop associating animated movies with high energy goofy romps. A Zelda movie would not work with the same style as the Mario movie. I hope they realize that, but I doubt it.
@@josephjoe4180 I completely agree. Ive grown tired of the "happy" movies that have very little to no depth of seriousness, a lot is due to the MCU, and id hope, in the best case scenario, they would have a more serious tone with the Zelda movie, especially because some of the games, in the story/lore, are actually really dark.
I hope the story is on ocarina of time/ Majora’s mask link
dude the CGI still holds up to, today and it has been 6 years witch is insane! 6 Years Ago This Would Be Better Than Disney
Bro 6 years is not as long as you think it is
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: Matthew 7:7 💙✨
☠️
It’s still better than Disney
Bro like Fr where's the next video we need a follow up!!
I feel like terrified little kid me scared of Majora's Mask all over again.
in the end when he put on Majoras mask i got scarred
@@leonelmolina6198 Lmao that was one part that got me too. I never thought about seeing MM in a more realistic setting and while its cool, part of me is hella happy I didnt have to see THIS as a child.
I remember seeing this disc thingie in de shelf and my dad saying I better dont fuckin touch it😂
me to, the clock got me
シェイカSheik The tentacles were a bit scary in my opinion
Dang, I was so tuned in that I thought I was watching the actual film. When it stopped short i was offended.

Nice bait
I'm not even a Zelda fan, but I'm already thinking this would make an amazing movie!
Verdade
You are now
First time seeing this. It's beautiful. When skull kid puts the mask on, and his laugh becomes more sinister, I got literal chills. So good
Whoever did the sound design for this is a genius. Like the visuals are obviously breathtaking but the sounds of the environment and subtle things like the creaking of the organ, groaning of the tower itself and clacking sounds of the wood when Skull Kid picks up the mask (or moves in general) are so satisfying and chilling to listen to 👌👌

You're welcome.
Obviously
@@panicked8676 Thanks for this!
@@keithdick3720 no problem dude. I listen to his albums all the time
I love how you pointed that out so astutely
Imagine a Majora’s Mask remake in this? God, I would pay anything.
DachKing Anything? What about $400 million. Pay to produce the movie yourself.
@@TSMelon animators dont get paid shit lmao this shits would cost like 20 bucks my nigga
Satire Stephen nice lmao
Nigthmare fuel for another 10 years of my life, yes please!
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This aged so fantastically. I remember seeing this when I was 10 or 11 and thinking that it was such cool animation and that still holds up strong today.
This gets me everytime. The clueless innocent look skull kid has when he sees the mask. The scared emotions in his face when he is holding it. The mask salesmen looking up and seeing the tenticles and saying "noo!" Under his breathe.... it makes my eyes water it is so good.
Literally exactly how I feel
I want a movie of the legend of Zelda... with this level of animation
No a game like this on pc or something that has the raw graphical power. Similar to ori and the will of the wisps.
Link still doesn’t talk tho you just see him grunting at a child and breaking random pots
@@sharkankles5371 so as many classic charcters but thye still talk in adaptations
Saaaaaaame
Nobody would talk 🤣🤣
This makes the rupees look like they actually have VALUE!
fun fact: in german they are called Rubine what means ruby. rupee is the currency in indie e.g.
I also love in pakistan
@@kevinbratwurst1418 geiler name 😂😂😂also ich mag Kartoffeln mehr
Game Theorists anyone?
@@rachie._mi8998 Haha yeah, the episode on the value of a rubee
Holy crap. If they could only make the game look like this. This was incredibly intense. I am amazed by the looks of that forest, the lighting the sounds, simply everything.
This ends way too early. The atmosphere, cinematography, music, even the salesman's voice invokes the emotion of the game better than the game itself. In that, it actually displays how the game makes you feel. So much passion. Amazing.
Obviously I would love more to it but I think it ended perfectly!
This is actually some professional cinema level animation like wtf

6 years later. Saw this ages ago and thought it looked phenomenal. I see this now and I feel the exact same way.
Revisiting this again after a few years. What I love the most about this is how you need no context or understanding of the original game, and no knowledge of Legend of Zelda to find this fascinating, engaging, and terrifying. Beautifully well done. Would love a Legend of Zelda movie in this style.
made in 2016, and still looks better than most animated movies made in 2019... And not even made by an official movie company. GG, you win.
One man who determined his pacing for a passion project vs. a team of overworked and underpaid employees forced to fit 2 years of work into 16 months
Actually animators are well paid, I mean , not rich, but enough, and they have some years to make the movies BUT, the movies are HOURS long they have many more cenes, very detailed and complex cenes, with a lot of things going on at same time, plus they have to lots of characters designs, and many more characters, they have to create, plus it’s REALLY long time of content,also, a lot of the time and money goes to the ideas of the movie, the plot,the script, the visual script, the dubbing, the animation it self ofc, the trailhers and marketing ,to make people want to see the movie, the music, natural sounds, orchestra, etc
It doesn't depend on what year it's made it, it depends on how much work and time has been put into it. Sure you get more possibilities over time but that doesn't automatically mean you use all of them for every movie.
Yeah because it’s four minutes long,
@@flaviapetrorossidefigueire6044 no man, we don't make shit. I make 48k a year, and I'm a front fx lead. I started hourly at 12/hr. This business is not good at the moment, and fx houses have almost no regulation or oversight, meaning they absolutely get away with anything.
I wish we could have seen this artists depiction of Link. Every other character was translated to CG flawlessly!
Especially if it was stylized like such
He’d be too sexy for mortal eyes.
@@ElysetheEevee Your talking about child link though... Totally not creepy
@@ElysetheEevee 😉👍
@@MrMoon-hy6pn BAD TOUCH! STRANGER DANGER!
This is mind bogglingly good! There is not a single thing I would change about it. The soundtrack, voice acting, style, visual effects, character design... EVERYTHING is perfect.
Wow. Fantastic. The salesmen himself looks relatively human, but there is still something deeply unsettling. All those details, right down to the pack and the masks.
Skull Kid transformation was something else.
The movie we wanted: This
The movie we got: The Emoji Movie
RTA True
RTA same
Who thinks the movie will suck
Yavin4 7300 everyone
Yavin4 7300, its called: The Emoji Movie. we KNOW it will suck ...
Majora's mask is by far the darkest zelda game out there
Succ indeed
manuel valenzuela I have but the scary shit of LOZ TP is so in your face i mean zant is creepy asf don't get me wrong but in majora's mask it's the subtle things that scare me like for instance on the final day if you go too romani ranch cremia gave chateau romani (which contains alcohol) to romani so that she would be drunk and sleepy and wouldn't notice that the moon is gonna destroy termina. Cremia wanted too spend the last moments with her little sister while she was happy and not scared. That is in my opinion for a kids game very dark..
Succ BOTW is both dark and sad, almost as or more depressing than MM. MM is kinda creepy dark.
Except Majoras Mask is literally about Link going through the stages of accepting his death from Ocarina of Time, that's pretty fucked up for a kids game.
You're right because the deku,goron,zora that you save in the game all represent stages of grief of the 5 stages of grief.
if they ever make a Zelda movie...this studio whoever did this needs to make the movie. this is my favorite game of all time. I'm 31 and STILL play this game over and over and over...love majora mask.
They are actually making a zelda movie rn and no its not those guys but netflix who does it
7 years later. This still looks beautiful. They REALLY have to make it a movie❤😢😮😊
One thing this short does really well is make the Happy Mask Salesman seem human.
It made the mask seller seem human, and made me feel SORRY for Skull Kid.
NikkisorousRex well skull kid isn't a bad person
he is just a lost child, who turned into a forest imp and as children do, played pranks on people. he just got really unlucky and "pranked" the wrong person. someone who happened to be carrying a very dangerous mask... and well, he became a victim of curiosity and just some shit luck
well, at the very least we assume he was "pranked" he could have been asleep for all we know
Well now I really need to finish the game.
This needs to be a full length film.
Most definitely
It wont be as nice as this the time and money it would cost too make such a film would be ridicules. there would be tons of cut backs for anyone too even afford such a film, this was only 4min and 30sec's not that big of a deal compared to a full length movie is you add in all the factors
Lieutenant Colonel Orangejuice oh shit this guy must be a producer he knows how movies are made and why they never make any movies these days
Some Random Guy on the Internet yes. yes it does
You have to admit, if it is this high quality throughout the whole thing and stays true to the game, it might just be years very well spent.
Thats crazy that this was released 6 years ago. I love the style, and if nintendo is gonna do a majoras mask themed movie, I hope it has this kind of horror vibe to it.
okay a majora's mask movie would be awesome
Quite amazing! Kinda surprised Nintendo didnt shut this down. Well done to the artist of this.
They made their own models, textures, and music. They aren't making a profit off this. What right does Nintendo have to take it down just because its REALLY good fan art? If anything, it's an incredible piece to add to their portfolios :)
I agree but you tend to see anything "fan" made is usually shut down by them.
anything fan made that is big, a short clip won't bother anyone.
A long as you don't make profit out if it, they won't shut you down.
YuanCrossXIII
The Metroid 2 remake project says otherwise, although they did let them finish it before the C&D
"Nobody cared who I was, until I put on the mask."
LOL
Lmao
What a lovely lovely voice
you're a big guy
Quote from Bane right? "The Dark Knight Rises"?
These people have a knack for beautiful visuals. Shows with this project and also with Kena
The fact that this is 6 YEARS OLD APPARENTLY makes me wonder even more why we don't have a movie yet, because this looks SO GOOD
This was 4 years ago still better animation than I've seen in Hollywood movies made in the last year
Ii999⁸ĺnhujgr9ssd0hhhuuuu88pppp
to play devil's advocate for a second, this was almost certainly made during free time as a hobby project, and those projects get done when they're done. despite having a lot of money behind them, professional movies have to abide by a schedule for a lot of reasons, so it's rare to see a CG movie that looks about as good as it possibly could have looked for the time it was made. no matter how much money you throw at a project, in many ways, it cannot replace time.
@@nobody2021 hopefully technology in the future will allow studio’s to create full projects of this quality without costing an arm n leg
@@l0ki207 it does matter how much technology improves. If animators don’t have enough time, then they’ll always be limited
Haven’t heard that excuse before
This is incredible. I usually don't like this kind of CGI heavy fanart, but here, not only the look of everything is incredible and absolutely stunning, but the lights, the pace, the animation, the editing (both visual and audio), the visual choices, any single storytelling tool is sharp as it can be.
The cut at 0:47/0:48, the beak mask (I can't recall if that was a Nintendo idea to begin with), the unfocused/lovecraftian shot at 3:11, the way he pulls away his hand at 3:32.
If I had to nitpick, I think that the Happy Mask Salesman it's a little too much 'human' when in the game has a creepy feeling, but I understand this choice in the context of this specific work.
I wish Nintendo could hire the team behind this and start a movie or a tv show.
Too many words not enough memes
"I usually don't like this kind of CGI heavy" -- what? Have you ever watch a Pixar movie?
I think the correct way to address it would be:
"I usually don't show much interest for this type of fan short films" -- because CGI is a broad term. Paint images are CGI, Photoshop edited pictures are CGI, Cinema4D final product is CGI and so on.
I agree, the CGI is awesome and the presentation is sharp. My only nitpick is the rendering of Tatl & Tael which looks less ball-of-light and more floating marbles.
Alessandro Romita this film is from other channel not this
3:35 Something I absolutely adore about this version of the Skull Kid laugh is the mixture of wooden instruments like woodchimes, blocks, and drums to make the fact he's literally a wooden child in perfect subtly. Meanwhile they add effect to the voice so you can hear the corruption and make it a grown man instead of a kid so you know that this being isn't a "skull kid" anymore.
Speaking of laughs, the Salesman is the narrator yeah? Beginning _and_ end? I'm confused as to why is he laughing maniacally at the end?
@Flynn Zeke It's in character. The Happy Mask Salesman repeatedly laughs when giving the story of the mask after you first get back the Ocarina despite it being a very dire situation. He's unhinged for sure, so the insane fits of laughter are pretty in line with his personality.
Majora Mask film adaptation could be the best animated film ever

It literally sounds like the mask was clawing into Skull Kid's face and he was struggling to rip it off. The pain he exhibited looked real. 2016, still has better CGI than 95% of all modern filmmaking.
Cats for an example
@@kinginci357 lmaooo fax its actually so sad to see the downfall of hollywood
@@kinginci357 cats has good vfx, its just the character designs that are garbo
@@kinginci357 For a second I thought you meant cats scratching people's faces
Well you might wanna think about budget. This is a short film, they can spend more time to detail the graphics because theres less to make. Movies span for over an hour, maybe even 2. Detailing thousands of frames takes a lot of time, and a lot of money.
Seeing this with now after the news of a live-action Zelda in the works makes this way more sad.
This is so well done.
Leave it fans to make a better film than anything Hollywood could ever produce
This amazing, and this needs to become a full length movie! Surprised that this hasn’t gotten more attention.
if they made a Zelda movie this is how I would want it to look like
I'm sure they'll make it much more kid friendly unfortunately

Promotion for the game?.... That came out 20 years ago?
I'm glad this doesn't have spoilers beyond what you'd get in the first few minutes of a game
I’ve never seen this side of Majora’s Mask before. I mean, I know the story of Skull Kid and the giants, but this... This is a totally different way of looking at things. The mask was the villain, Skull Kid was the victim. This perfectly captures that sentimentality.
The thought that a mask like that could exist sends chills up my spine. Hearing the Skull Kid scream as he tried to stay in control..... I don’t even have the words to describe it. If they made Majora’s Mask into a movie, and it was animated by EmberLab, I would totally watch it
Tabby Cat yes, it was rather dark.. it gave me chills. This is damn good work, and they should make it into a feature film! Too bad it didn’t have Link and Epona meeting up with Skull Kid!
Same!
FBN Flavius Broadcasting Network that scream wasnt him trying to stay in control, it was because so much power went into him that he briefly died and wanted that mask off asap
If anyone makes a Majora movie it HAS to be dark.
While this was a while ago, I also want to point out how it's framed the same way as Link's mask transformations, but drawn out. Even the gasps are similar. "Eugh-eh Eugh-eh, Eahhhhhh!" When Link puts on any of the three main transformation masks for the first time, there's a longer pause here between the first two gasps and the final scream as he collapses (presumably because this was more of a contest of wills while Link's were voluntary-yet-no-less-horrifying.
The final frame and pose are the same, though. Really neat homage in an already great animation. It almost makes it feel as if all of Termina - including the masks and how they work, were made by the mask itself in the canon of this animation.
Dear Hollywood, it is so difficult to create a movie about a video game, like this?
lo mejor que he visto en mi puta vida
PLEASE !!!! A MOVIE !!!!
El Universo de Dave Kranz the biggest problems with game movies is that they can only bring a linear experience while games do the exact opposite. Games give you freedom to make out your actions and do what you want, while a movie is just a scripted character. The legend of Zelda wouldn't be a good game to turn into a movie, because link is a projection of the player character, and that's a huge problem for directors because that means you have to create a character that everyone can relate to, EVERYONE. Game movies without the protagonist I don't see much of a problem with, albeit new characters would have to be introduced and characters would have to be filled in more in order to work.
ToastyAstronaut but what if they had someone project their character into the movie's link
Right? Thank you!
This is really incredible. I've been playing Majora's Mask for a long time now, and this really captured the feel and emotion of the game. I love how the characters feel in this short. Overall, this really deserves more attention. I'm in awe of how well it looks
Just found this animation, brobably the best I‘ve seen yet😯
The skull kid looks so sad when putting on the mask. Like he didn't want to but didn't have a choice.
Cuse he did not

Man coming back to this I have realized that this animation is golden! A true treasure! It holds up better than what most companies like Disney are pushing out!!
Imagine the remnant of a Eldrich entity trapped inside a mask, who have scary an entire generation. It could be crazy right ?
But imagine
This is a little too good. Like there is no way an official short would look this good.
Truegreen7 oh shit hey
it is when the team working on it knows what the fuck they are doing and are not a bunch of 14 yo's with gary's mod :P
Oh, Hey Truegreen7, Didn't expect you to be here. Also, I agree with that statement.
Truegreen7 Nice to see a familiar face on RUclips, and a Pokémon fan no less! 😱 Also, IKR? 😁 This animation is too beautiful! ❤
Truegreen7 it is probably because it is 4 minutes long. that means more time was put within those 4 minutes compared to a hour long movie
What we want: this!
What we got: WELL EXCUUSEEE MEEEEE PRINCEESSS!!
I just watched the clip of every time Link says the phrase and oh my goodness it is annoying hahaha
WELL EXCUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSEEEEEEE MEEEEEE
and it also was brilliant :
@Sparticus Booker I was 9 around them releasing! :P
@Sparticus Booker Those cartoons have some age to them. Just because the 1929 Mickey Mouse cartoon where a Reaper commands Mickey Mouse to play a piano exists. Does not mean those are not old cartoons as well.
Majora's Mask is my favourite Zelda; emotional, moving, dark, deep and ridiculously hard and perplexing in places. You have to invest so much into the game that you feel attached to it and the characters in it. Makes the payoff at the end so much more meaningful. I still play it every few years and it never gets old.
I think the impressive part is how they seamlessly integrated real world background with the CGI characters in such a way that it makes background look CGI!

After seeing this who wants a cgi movie made for Majora's Mask?
+better late than ever because the super mario bro's movie was such a hit.
Animating Sponge that was then this is now. film has come so far. Nintendo needs to take another chance
better late than never i think i would prefer a twilight princes movie
Predador 2000 that would be cool. maybe both since the skull kid is in both
its true :v xD ivent notice xD
Why does this actually look good? I legitimately want to see this made into a full length movie.
@@frankgrimes7388 wrong opinion, try again
This is a style from Nintendo I'd get behind for CG Zelda films. WOW!
It explains the tragic backstory of how the skull kid got the mask, I LOVE IT
The game explained it too
It doesn't explain anything more than what we got in the game.
Honestly, the game says he straight up attacked and stole it from the Salesman lol. This version makes more sense to me, because he was always painted as curious, nosy, and kinda obnoxious, but never 'evil' until he got the mask.
@@xTheForgottenOnexx why'd the salesman pass out tho? thought it was something skull kid did
@@cello1993It may be because of the Mask to be honest...
Dude someone needs to make a legend of Zelda animated movie

Lets just hope they dont make link talk o-o
as long as he’s not... well CDI or cartoon link I’m fine with him speaking

Man why don’t we have this yet I swear I would pay top dollar to see this always wanted this 🔥🔥🔥
Love that this has returned to my feed.
Considering the New Super Mario movie dropped last night at midnight. 30 years after it's 90s attempt as a movie.
So I am desperate, and beg that the team who worked on this trailer gather the funds needed to create a true LoZ film. Of this quality of course. I wouldn't accept anything less. Just watching this all over again brought me chills.
Of all the Zelda games, I think Majora’s Mask would be the best suited for a film adaptation. This proves it. It isn’t really up for debate that this game has some of the most well fleshed out characters in the whole franchise. It balances the line between whimsical fantasy and sheer terror like the other games just don’t do as well. The characters all have their own motives and personalities yet leave a lot for addition of needed. There is just so much. The fact that this was made for a RUclips short film is almost insulting. This belongs in a museum. It is astonishingly beautiful and captures exactly the emotions the game wanted to tell. The movie wouldn’t work as live action though. This is why. There is something about the cartoon aspect of Zelda, especially Majora’s Mask, that blends with the darker aspects that can’t be recreated in live action.
Incredible work is an understatement. The fact that this isn’t in theaters is sad. Then again, at this level of quality, it would take years to complete.
“Then again, at this level of quality, it would take years to complete.” I’ve got some news for you about movies: they all do.
I'm thinking more of a Samurai Jack style mini-series so we can follow Link doing more than the main story. They should definitely still cut some stuff like the mask kids on the moon but the masks themselves could be collected as part of a darkest hour as Link has to come to terms with not being able to save everyone.
If the Super Mario Bros. Pixar movie dose well, I hope we do get Zelda, Earthbound, Metroid, F- Zero, and StarFox soon after.
Sorry but no, something of this quality, with the lights and shading, takes YEARS.
majoras mask would be nice. i think ocarina of time or botw would be amazing as well
Ok but Nintendo pick this up and make it a full length movie
Damn, 300 likes one a 2 year old vid after 3 days
Im surprised nintendo hasnt claimed this vid yet
what would the movie even be?
@@seanjenkins5505 mijuras mask
@@lordshivonski6149 if you crazy people think you can somehow make a coherent 2 hour movie out of a game that has multiple divergent plot threads and time travel, you're out of your mind. Even if you only focused on the bare bones story of finding 4 giant men to catch the moon and end the apocalypse, depending on how you look at there's simultaneously too much and too little information. Focus only on link, a little boy who never talks and has a borderline imaginary friend who follows him around while he moves blocks around to open doors and fight a context-less monster. Or you bring in all the other characters who merely exist to guide you to this goal, and on their own aren't really interesting at all. The handful of side characters that could be considered interesting are largely irrelevant to the story, like kafe, malon, the zora singer, others i'm forgetting off the top of my head. Most of the people that would want a movie are just thinking of seeing link fight the skull kid on some cool set-piece, while giving no thought on how you would actually end up there in a satisfying way ie most of the movie.
How come this can't be crowd funded? Just give this man his money and he'll get to animating. He could buy a team and that's how a community produced movie is made.
Man I wanted more!! Never knew this existed. Looks amazing! Hoping a production company will take notice
Alrighty Nintendo
All you need to do
Is hire these people and get Theophany for the OST

This would be amazing if they remade the game with the newest engine and all new character models and textures. Wow this would be incredible.
Sky Rasmus there is a fanmade wii u trailer for this game
*Krampus_510* I think when the OP says "newest engine" that is referring to what the hypothetical Majora's Mask remake would be like if it was done on a modified version of the Breath of the Wild engine, with a similar art style (a blend of cartoon art and realism). I don't think they are suggesting a game that would feature gameplay that matches the quality of the footage in this trailer. Although that would, in fact, be amazing, I assume they understand the natural limitations that would be necessary to keep development of such a game within a reasonable timeframe. Although, I will say that with the Legend of Zelda series, Nintendo clearly prefers to spend the time needed to get the games right, as demonstrated both by the six years they spent developing Breath of the Wild, and the overwhelmingly impressive end result.
Sky Rasmus I agree they tried to do this with the 3ds version but they fucked up by changing things in game we want the same game with better graphics
Pedro Gonzalez they didn't ruin anything. The things that they changed were actually major inprovements like the owl statues saving so that you could get off quicker when you have to go to dinner, and the bomber's notebook being more useful with detailed schedules and better quest descriptions. In my book, they didn't really change anything, just added fetueres that would enhance the gameplay. Majora's mask on N64 had to be made in 6 mounths.
Sky Rasmus I don't even think the switch can handle this but if Nintendo can make a console that can, plz make this a game
I love how he screamed when he put on the mask. Just like when link would put on the deku, goron, Zora, and fierce deity masks.
Yea that’s actually perfect.
@@AJA_974 It's just a husk in BOTW. By that point, it had lost most or all of it's power.
Julie Carroll so like how tarantulas and other animals shed their skin, also it’s not just the mask but the boots and chest plating aswell so is Botw link wearing the hero of times skin???
@@juliecarroll1536 Actually, I'm pretty sure that the one seen in BotW is a fake one, and not the real Majora's Mask.
Maybe the mask is scared cause it knows damn well Link will do what he did again whether it's 100 years or 1000, young or old
This. This right here is beyond incredible work. Phenomonal, outstanding! Its amazing!! Even years later its easily better than most films we have today!!! Someone get this team a budget to make this a full film i would so watch this!!
Damn. 7 years and still looks better than most movies. I would kill to have a Zelda movie made like this especially for majoras mask
I wish it ended with the classic "You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?" Because it would have just been absolutely perfect imo
Nah, I don't think that would fit. He says that when you first meet him, but he tells this story once you return to him after getting the Ocarina.
