After the success of Breath of the Wild and, of course, Tears of the Kingdom, Zelda for a new generation is completely different than what I think of as Zelda, right? Even when I picked up and started tinkering with... Link's Awakening, I was like, this is Zelda. This is what Zelda is and that is not true to a million other people.

If you're the creative right now and you're obviously involved in Hollywood and writing, what are you thinking they're going to do?

Dude, if they hit that, I mean, you just crushed it. That'd be amazing.

We paid for the ticket based on the game. Like, we're fine. We're fine with it being a little goofy out there. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I'm... You know, you and I are from a different time, so I'm still cautiously optimistic about this. Like, video game movies are great now. Not everyone, but most of them, right? Where it's like... Yeah. My son is obsessed now with the Sonic movies, and I watch these.

I'm like, damn, this is a good movie. This is funny. This is great. He loves Mario, which I enjoyed in the theaters, but he loves just watching. I find something new to enjoy every time. I look at this, and I'm like... This is one that matters to me. Zelda means something to me from back in the day. So it's like, I want it to be great. I really hope it will be.

And again, this is a weird swerve, but stick with me. The way Nintendo is taking control of their own destiny with the app, with the Mario movie and having Miyamoto so involved, I have no reason not to believe they don't understand what they're doing here. They're going to get it. Do you agree? Yeah. I absolutely agree.

When you talk about Miyamoto being so involved in this, and you talk about Neil Druckmann being so involved in The Last of Us, what's that like for you? Again, you bridge this interesting line where obviously you're a video game guy, whatever, but you're one of us that's then gone out and become a Hollywood name and all this stuff.

I got to imagine at some point in your career, you were like, I'm quirky because I know video games so well, and now the people who are there are accepted by Hollywood and making these movies. Yeah, absolutely.

What for you? Sorry. Yeah. We're telling the story. Sorry.

What for you? Sorry. Yeah. We're telling the story. Sorry.

Yeah, so far so good on that. I think that's what's making these movies and iterations and adaptations stand out. And then when you see something like Uncharted where it was like, oh, well, Druckmann's so involved in The Last of Us, no one watching Uncharted, we get Uncharted, which is a fine, fun enough movie or whatever, but it wasn't Uncharted, right?

No, that makes sense. That makes a lot of sense. I like that a lot. That's a good way to put it. We're going to move on to more entertainment video game crossover stuff, but first... I'm going to tell you about Patreon.com slash Kind of Funny, YouTube.com slash Kind of Funny Games, Apple and Spotify. Of course, those platforms have the Kind of Funny membership.
