Is this an extremely elaborate April Fools joke? If so, I have to applaud them for the commitment to not put in any obvious tells. I mean, they worked hard to make it seem just like how Hollywood would try and adapt that material.
But it’s a joke, right?
It’s an April fools joke. No doubt about it in my mind.
I’d like to believe it either way. http://www.rainfallfilms.com/ is apparently the company making it, so who knows.
IGN has an update: it’s an april fools’ day gag.
Even worse, it looks like Zelda is a leftist.

Super Extra Gay!
Gerry Anderson had it right. Zelda is the enemy.
That is, without doubt, the most awesome April Fools’ joke I’ve ever seen.
OMG. I really hope that’s a joke, because I love LOZ. However, that has to be the gayest looking thing EVER in the history of gayness. Please be a joke.
Joke, yes, but I’ve seen a lot of movies with worse production values.
I was torn between being delighted at the idea of an LoZ movie (being part of the demographic that played the first game on the first console when it was the FIRST NES GAME WITH A SAVE FEATURE) and not wanting THAT LoZ movie because Link had no charisma whatsoever and the villain looked too silly for words. I’m glad it’s a prank, but I wouldn’t mind if it put a bug in someone’s ear…

It could be true; I imdbed it (looked it up on internet moviedata base) and there is a 2009 film called ‘Zelda’.
The only tell I saw was the ign logo on the credits page.
It couldn’t have been any worse than the CD-I Zelda games. Now those were bad.
#12 was me. Forgetfulness pertaining to filling out ID info, I has it. =P
Given how hollywood thinks, they would probably make a movie about how great the darkworld is until Link came along and ruined everything!
I think I could almost forgive Hollywood for An Inconvenient Truth if they produced an excellent LoZ movie. Almost.
There was one tell. Link’s cap.
@Johnathan:
How do you know that photo is not from a role?
yes you are all right its one big April fools joke that is why information about the movie was posted 3/20/06. bravo people
@Soul – That is not the same film. Did you watch the trailer? It was a completely different thing, unrelated to the fan-made film that was supposed to be released in 2006. This was an april fools joke that ign hired rainfall films to make for that purpose.
