I was browsing around YTMND, looking up this new "[insert guy here] gets the Triforce" fad (which, BTW, has been eclipsed by the simultaneous "Link gets an [insert object here]" fad), and I stumbled upon... this... thing.

I decided to look more into this and stumbled upon this and this. Apparently, these videos are where that... that THING was spawned from. The second one, more specifically; I'd recognize that polka anywhere. I will warn you, general reaction here is that these videos are some of the worst things imaginable (and from what I've seen I agree), so bad they put the CD-i games to shame (and those had some bad acting!). What's weirder is the Dic logo on there...

So, in conclusion, only a quote from the CD-i games seems applicable: "MY CAKES WILL BURN!"
(Why? It's a secret to everybody.)

EDIT: Links relinked to a Geocities account that's apparently the home page for these things; original links are teh broke.

Oh dear lord, that is some of the worst...Gah! And like you said what is worse is that strangely the DiC logo is on the films and picture. And when I went to DiC's site there was no record of a Zelda "cartoon" so gah. I can't watch anymore of this stuff. My eyes they burn.

WHAT...THE...HELL?!

THAT was THE most scariest thing...EVER. What was UP with that fat guy with the ever changing T-shirt with a fast food logo printed on in?
And apparently they enjoy making Link googly eyed.
Seriously, WHY is there a DiC logo, the mind ponders.

DiC made a Zelda cartoon that was featured on the Super Mario Bros Super Show. The full series of the Zelda cartoon has just gotten a DVD release (or will do soon, whatever).

True, but AFAIK, these are more or less unrelated. And for good reason - have you watched 'em? Look at Link's eyes! The plot sucks, the acting REALLY sucks, and don't get me started on the humor. I think the Triforce randomly starting a dance was the best thing in the entire animation, which is saying something.

*Cries*

and I had just about forgiven you for the CD-i game footage from Blue Gale's return before his last return to the MoFo.

You'll rue the day you showed me this!

Relax, Craig... just watch the E3 2K5 Twilight trailer again. It'll cleanse your memory, God-willing.

Except the dancing Triforce. That one's probably going to remain fresh for a LOOOONG time. Heck, I keep thinking over the lines in my head, despite not WANTING to.

Oh, I suppose I should've mentioned; apparently the guy's main website is on Geocities. Not Dic. If it were on Dic, it'd make more sense why it's down there (if it were just a tribute to the cartoons then it'd probably NOT have that copyright down there). Dic hasn't even mentioned this thing. I wonder what's going on...

Is it me- or was there a drag-queen in there?
And what the hell were they doing to Link's eyes?

Hey, it's the Swedish Polka music from H*R! Except it's extended and stuck in a random place for no reason.

Forget Link's eyes, what happens to his hair? He turns bald at one point.
And Majora's Mask's been taking collagen or something.

Oh, I know of that. Watched a couple. It was okay, although I never really pictured Link as a cocky sorta type who has a somewhat lecherous mind. I'm just waiting for the Mario Brothers DVD collection coming this Fall. *squeals*

That was friggin' amazing. Sorry, but that's the best thing I've seen in weeks. Wow.

Hate to rain on your party, guys, but it is just an animation test. It's a part of every sort of animated production where they use crude models to test the fluidity of the animation. Of course it's not going to have the final look or voice-acting. A lot of times they just use stand-in voices so that they can make sure the timing of the lines and the animation matches up.

En't you guys ever seen the Lord of the Rings DVD 'making of' things, on the CGI sections? Yeesh.

The reason why it's not on DiC's site is probably because it's still in production and not finished yet.

I haven't laughed so hard in such a long time.

For me, every time I click and watch the triforce dance to the polka song and then see everyone else do their own thing it's as funny then as it was before.

I know. >:3

BTW, Link's voice is very inconsistent. At first he sounds like he's trying overly hard to be "cool", then he's turned into some kinda black guy or something (at least, his voice goes a few notches above baritone), and in the second video, his only line, "Wow. Did you SEE that.", has no emotion whatsoever. Odd.

I'm still staring at his goggly eyes. It freaks me out. In one scene, Link's left eye cocks sideways. That weirded me out.

Wait one cotton picking minute here. Link SPEAKS?!?!

When? Where? Give me details! *Lifts you from the ground* You better be talking about "EXCUUUUUUSE MEEEEE PRINCESS!" and not the REAL link. He has no voice! Ursula stole it and tried to marry Zelda so they could...

I sense a horrible fan-fiction brewing...

*Kills self*

This is a fake, just someone screwing around with 3d animation software for giggles. That said, classic.

:31 in the second one. I'd do the first one but the links in the first post are down and so is the guy's website.

It'll take so much more than that to get get rid of those images that are now carved into your skull...

You do realize that I have to deconstruct you into tiny little pieces for recycling purposes, right Shadow Hog? >=D
