I'll pass. Not sure I'd like a Zelda movie anyway. I loved most of the games I've played, but never because of the story. It's fine for a video game, "help I'm kidnapped by evil thing save me!"
The legend of Zelda really doesn't work as a movie, even less so than mario. Mario at least makes a good cartoon, but the legend of Zelda is primarily about dungeons and one man badass stuff. dialogue is secondary, overarching plot is secondary. any movie that calls itself Zelda without having these elements would not feel right.
A Metroid movie in the style of Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal (a show with next to no dialogue) would actually be really cool. The problem is they would absolutely never do something like that because the average viewer's brain is addled with ADD and needs dialogue to remain interested in watching something.

imagine trying to make a Metroid movie.

Genndy may be the last creator to understand the power of silence.
Also a major reason I loved Evangelion.
