But yes Zelda is generally associated with archery - in the old cartoon, even in BOTW as she gifts the super bow, etc.

Ya, Zelda having a bow+arrow has been a thing for a long time. Like you mentioned, she used them in the 80s cartoon and later post-NES games started having her use weapons more

Yes, and she was a "fighter" in the 3do game, so? And in the new game she stars in... Also Sheik was also portrayed as a result from the dystopian future that was created without Link. The young Zelda at the end of OOT will not grow up to be Sheik in that timeline because link is there (or will she because link is dead in MM?!?!?!?!?!) vs the young zelda that does grow up to be sheik without link.

However, the overwhelming majority of "Zelda Games" is Link, saving the princess/world/fighting gannon and or minion solo - and thus a movie that is most likely "not any one game" should be a overall generalization of said series - and having girlboss zelda tag along is not that...but, its a few stills...we have to see what the actual movie brings.

Still want them to fit in an "excuse me princess" in the movie somewhere.

Didn't realize they had to take every game, average them out, then go with whatever that is. You should let them know that rule you just made up while there's still time

Yeah I will let them know to produce a product that is recognizable as said product in an overall perspective.

Link was just a non-interactive sleeping NPC in Mario RPG... we should go with THAT representation in the movie, we dare not go with what Link and TLOZ is in general or what 90% of the content has as established characteristics.

Ocarina of Time is definitely an obscure title that few have even heard of.

Incredible comparison

Looks fine so far, as long as this doesn’t turn into an 80 pound girlboss fist fighting demons because she’s so badass and needs to save the weakling Link I think it will at least be watchable.
