Legend of Zelda 2007 Rejected Movie Pitch

Video here [x]

I did not make this, I only turned it into a gif set. Imagi (makers of the TMNT 3D movie) made this short pitch. Personally, I’m a a fan of the style. For those who disagree, please keep in mind:

• This was made in 2007, so the CGI is over 5 years old and so is understandably dated.
• This was a Pitch/Demo Reel, meaning it is not the final product that would have been in the movie. They had a limited amount of time create it, so they focused most of their efforts on Link and Zelda, who would have had more polish in the actual movie. Ganondorf was most likely thrown together last minute so the pitch would have a villain, but I suspect he would have been reworked for the actual movie. The guards and other extras were just fillers just for the purposes of the pitch and would have been more detailed in the actual movie.
• This has already been rejected by Nintendo. This was not because they had issue with the style, but because ever since the 1993 Super Mario Bros movie failed, Nintendo has been reluctant to risk any other movies based on their games.
