This is How Movies Should Be Made

it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

I saw this show on the Internet as a kid and I liked it! Then I watched it again as a teenager and...I still liked it! I honestly think it's really good for an '80s cartoon based off an '80s video game. The animation still holds up (to me anyway) and the voice acting is good too.But let's talk about why people hate it:
Link. In this show, he's portrayed as a 20-something, pun-making guy that gets off on fighting and is always trying to get Zelda to kiss him (instant classic, I know). Honestly, I'm still not bothered by this change. Now does it represent Link well at all? No. But do I care? No. It's just supposed to be this fun, corny show for kids that play Zelda a lot (or at least, that's how I see it).I love Zelda a LOT, and this show didn't change that. In fact, I think it added something. So if you like '80s cartoons and video games, give this show a little look

WARNING: THIS MIGHT CONTAIN A SPOILERLegend of Zelda the TV series had great cartoon animations for its time. The writers put much effort into writing the story, and I think they should have continued the series for at least one more season, since Zelda and Link never captured the tri force of power. However, since I believe Link was very different than how he was depicted in the video games, this threw off many viewers and gave the show a bad rating. Also Link's catchphrase might have annoyed viewers after the 10th time.I thought the Legend of Zelda show had a great story, and showed what Link and Zelda were like. Inside the game Link never talks, but inside the show he has a much greater role in that regard. I also like how Zelda does fight alongside Link, so that made the show interesting.The reason I gave this show a nine of of ten is because I know how hard it is to create animations, and I thought the creators did an excellent job for their time. I hope that show will eventually be brought back since the show was never canceled (even though it has been 25 years since it has been created).
Cartoon King
I'm a big fan of Nintendo's classic series of adventure video games "The Legend of Zedla". And when I heard that they did a cartoon series about it, I'll admit I was actually really wanting to see it. But when I finally looked it up on YouTube, I was greatly disappointed. This show was just cheesy, campy, annoying, badly scripted, dull and overall terrible. Here is a short list of things that are wrong with this show:1. Link - In the games Link was meant to be a heroic, brave, and strong hero who would do whatever it takes to protect Princess Zelda and The Kingdom of Hyrule. In this show he is a cocky, smart-Alec, stubborn jerk who only does these things so he can get Zelda to kiss him. Plus he has an annoying catchphrase of "Excuuuuse ME, Princess!" which he says constantly in almost every single episode. I have no problem with catchphrases, but Link takes his annoying catchphrase way too far.2. Bad plots - The episode plots are too dull and uninteresting. The games had great, well-thought-out, original, and epic story-lines, but in this show we get Link turning into a frog, The King of Hyrule building a water park, and Zelda falling for another guy. This show would have been much better if it had a story-arc, or a more serious and dark setting.3. Spryte - Spryte has gotta be one of the most annoying characters in cartoon history. She's obnoxious, has an irritating, squeaky, high-pitched voice, and fails to do a good job at what she is meant for: comic relief. Her jokes are cheesy and terribly unfunny.4. It's just plain dull - The worst thing about this show by far is how dull and effortless it is. You can tell the writers and directors didn't care if it was a good show or not. Because this show is repetitive, dull and boring. It's not interesting or exciting in any way, the action scenes are short, predictable and boring, the stories (as I already mentioned) are cliché, and not very Zelda-like, and the comedy portions of the show aren't funny in any way.This show was just awful. It was unfaithful to the games, it was predictable, dull, boring, uninteresting, annoying, and just stupid. "The Legend of Zelda" is one of the worst cartoons of all time, which is ironic as the Zelda games are some of the greatest video games of all time.Rating: 1/10 "Horrific"

The Legend of Zelda is a cartoon contained within the much more successful Super Mario Bros. Super Show based on the game of the same name.This cartoon is obviously a big screwup. It does no justice for the awesome game series it is based on, and anyone can you tell that.Yet still, there's something about it that is extremely funny. Maybe it's how they turned Link into a cocky jerk, or the nightmarish acting, but it manages to be so funny you just have to keep watching.In closing, the show is horrible, but it's hysterical. It's a guilty pleasure. Too bad it only lasted 13 episodes.
