>>212789511Not every version of Link and Zelda bang eachother, OoT Link had Malon and TP Link had Ilia, some of them prefer the farm life.
>>212789443nope
mexican space cats
>>212788741 (OP)Link has been completely replaced within his own franchise. Zelda is the main protagonist in the last couple of games and will be the main protagonist in the movie as well. The power of DEI
>>212789511Given every Zelda is part of the same direct bloodline and Link is a reincarnating hero, the implication of him banging his grandchildren and the incest grandchildren he made with them is far weirder, though that's all Skyward Sword's fault.
>>212789144>>212789679This retard is spamming on /tv/ as well I see.
He's spammed this message like eighty times on /v/ in every thread related to the movie.

Oh shit, that kid that is playing Link is the kid from Fuknigga's upcoming movie that's supposed to be like True Detective season 1 and has Eva Green with her big ass titties flopping around and shit.
>>212792562and lack of elf ears doesnt bother you, retard? These are actors without any make up
>>212789049That you're an uncle Tom House negro

Nintendo or anyone of important for that matter was ever considering him.
>>212795806>>212795783It's Blood ON Snow, it's a project DiCaprio was originally going to direct and star in and fought for the rights to then got too busy to do. Totally different writer based on his book and it's a film directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga with Eva Green, ATJ, and Ben Mendelsohn and a few people that were in TD season 1. It's on imdb, but it's listed as in production because it's still in production. It was just talked about in Variety.

>>212788741 (OP)The most shocking thing about this is both of them being white.
>>212797183It's not remotely surprising. I expected two young unknown English actors the whole time. Nintendo are not taking risks with this property, they want a surefire hit with no controversy.
>>212797228>Nintendo are not taking risks with this propertyStill, when dealing with Hollywood or the west in general, their agenda effects the whole process. I have no doubt they tried to make Nintendo budge, having Zelda be a black girl or something, but good on them for standing firm.
Every version of Link has been blonde.
Every version of Zelda (except one) has been blonde.
Are these zelda games even good?
>>212797347not even true, and dye / wigs / hair stylists / post production exists to make them blonde. Useless post

>>212799664Yeah bro! Man, it's so sad that people can't change their hair color. Wow, can you imagine if that technology existed?! It'll never happen though, just like electricity and fancy flying machines that people can ride in. Utter nonsense that will never exist.

>>212789511They won't get together until movie 2 or 3, so he'll be over 18 by the time they kiss. It's a trilogy. I'm so fucking happy they cast relatively unknown actors instead of "star power" or nepo-babies. This project has some actual hope.
>>212801317bro they're blatantly wearing modern clothes
those are not "costumes"
>>212801348>what is hair dyemoron

Why would he already have his hairstyle for filming? It's not going to be starting production for months.
>>212796692Yep, twink Daniel Craig was never gonna be Zelda.
>>212801451"wearing" hair dye?
>>212789049honestly anon I no longer care, racewar dynamics only maintain the working class divided and plotting against it, in the end the corporations win, but something happening recently is that they are letting white looking people back in the mainstream which makes me believe that's bad, after all they would never push for something that benefits the goyim, whites are already almost extinct it is not as if putting whites in movie will fix the decades of brainwashing whites have gone through to be completely suicidal and self destructive, imagine caring about whites or race in 2025 when there are bigger problems in the horizon and since the majority of the people in the world are not white including people in europe and north america then that means those problems have to be fixed by non whites and to stop depending on whites
They should be asian what kind of fucking white washing is this
>>212794833>That you're an uncle Tom House negroNo one wants the House to be run by blacks, not even blacks want this, despite all their hypocritical vanity. It's the same reason why they all move to white neighborhoods the second they get a bit of cash.
Yeah they should be Asian

This and the Johnny cage reveal was just unreal today we be eating good but only one question why arenโt they Asian?

>>212802002His natural hair does not matter. It will be whatever they design the costuming and hairstyling to look like. It's a movie.
>>212802002I don't think he wears tunics in everyday life, but I imagine he will in the movie.
>>212802027they're not giving him a wig. that's the look. that's your Link. and that'll be $30 plus tip
>>212802035he would look weird with blond hair. they're changing the character for the movie
>brown hair
Dobson is currently very happy
>>212802062mark my words, there will be no dye, there will be no wig. black haired Link is what you're getting from Nintendo Film Studios
But why arenโt they Asian?
As an Asian American I can safely say yeah this is white washing as always so typical
Guys, Heath Ledger doesn't have green hair. He's going to be an awful Joker. How could they not cast someone with green hair?! His hair will definitely be brown in the movie and my entire village says they will not watch The Dark Knight and it is literally OVER.
>>212801936Asian bullfrog maybe
>>212802202Heath ledger is dead bro
How old are you? That was like, 50 years ago
>>212802199Tingle is the Asian representation in the Zelda series.
>>212802058And you know this how exactly?
Link and Zelda, much like most characters in Japanese games and anime, are white. It's because even Asians would rather look at white people than themselves. Also hair color is easily changed to fit a role played by an actor. End of discussion, you can stop trolling now you fat cheeto fingered /v/eddit retard.
>>212802129Man, I don't give a shit. It's a miracle it's a white kid.

>>212802580The Welsh typically have dark hair.
Neither of these people look like elves.
>>212802556He has brown hair and hair is dyed to suit the role, so you don't know what his hair color will be. You are a total idiot.

>>212789049>What does that say about me?It means you're either horny or have acheived sentience.
I checked out the Link actor on YouTube and he's overacting in every clip I find. I guess you don't need Oscar-level performance for a Zelda movie but still. At least they're giving someone new a shot rather than hiring Tom Holland, Timothee Chamalet or the other usual suspects.
>>212788741 (OP)the only good link candidate is sophia lillis

>>212797751Casting a middle-aged man as Zelda is a lot more than "questionable"
>>212788741 (OP)haha troon, play a gerudo instead
>>212804451Link and Zelda are White
>>212797071its terrifying because if the movie sucks its a career ender and if its too good you end up like Jenna Ortega where you become a typecast.
Sounds good at first but those roles dry up quicker and you eventually get thrown aside by a younger typecast and never get roles again because nobody thinks you can do anything else.
Of course this is Nintendo so it will probably be the most basic movie ever so none of this really matters

>>212788741 (OP)Zelda is the main character. Not Link. A white male protagonist loses yet another franchise. The elites want to demoralize every white male and have them physically, mentally, emotionally check out of society. Subversive warfare.
>>212805726Wrong! They are obviously Asian.
>>212807993The creator of Zelda casted whites
>>212807059Itโs even worse because theyโre not Asian
>>212808008Itโs obvious that Nintendo felt pressure due to this skewed colonial white man imperial system, they felt like the only way they could bargain was to cast โwhiteโ actors (which is why he has black hair) but we both know they obviously really wanted to hire Japanese talent, Japanese filmmakers, Japanese actors to star in this movie. Rightfully, how it should be. With Japanese you always get quality.
>>212808085t. did not create the Zelda series
>>212797347Actually his hair is golden blonde/brown, a color between blonde and brown hair. Older games didn't have the color graphics for it but it isn't blonde like Zelda. It's the same exact color as my hair, I'll know if they get it right.
>>212805936she would be a perfect sheikh
>>212788741 (OP)Aesthetics will always matter and it took Miyamoto-san to whip Hollowood out of its current malaise.
>>212805441>Casting a middle-aged manPlease don't say that. It makes me insecure.
I just turned 30, 30 is still young, far from middle-aged.
>>212808840sheik is supposed to look like a man
>>212803314>>212804907There are tons of these renaissance jaks, unfortunately I don't know how to find them all. Might be on sรถybooru, but I don't think there's a unified tag.
I love 'em.
>>212807993no they are white nordics, based on elfs like lord of the ring, it's like calling frieren asian because she is created by the Japanese.

>cast white people
>>212788741 (OP)Japs saved Hollywood
